might not be the all time worst but since it happened last night....


had LFG up in Lavastorm and trying to get my Tier3 single missions, alas faction isn't high enough...
I see some people '/ooc' looking for group members but I don't say anything. Suddenly, "SomeLoser_01 invites you to a group, click on "FOLLOW" to join, or "DECLINE" to not". I was bored, and it was kind of getting late to do anything serious with guildies. So I accept.

2 people in group besides me. (/sigh)

in 10 minutes we have 5 people (WAR, MNK, BST, DRU, me) and just looking for a cleric, (later I found out the slower (BST) was boxing the druid. Finally get a cleric, and people start zoning into Broodlands. Monk is asking, 'who is getting mission' 5 times with no one responding, so I say I will get it.

I pick up mission, and immediately monk cries because it's evil. (/shrug)

I zone in and WAR not here yet, am told he is zoning. Literally 5 mnutes go by before he zones in almost going LD in the process. Start pulls.


1st pull I get aggro after landing 3rd DoT.
2nd pull I get aggro after landing 2nd DoT.
3rd pull I get aggro after 2nd DoT is resisted.

I haven't cast snare yet....just FPoK, DN and Night Fire or Mori.

I ask WAR in group, 'are you taunting?'
WAR replies, "no" (/sigh)

5th pull and with aggro bouncing to MNK/NEC/BST(slower), cleric is crying LoM with me MWing every other MOB and BST popping Paragon. WAR hitpoints are jumping up and down constantly.
WAR calls for med break, and I ask if druid can heal. Druid says if one person keeps aggro he can.

Next pull, I FD after each cast and am far away from group...but I see cleric (who is LoM) casting....I get closer and see he's nuking the MoB!!!!

I'm this close (holds fingers less then a micron apart) from gating and leaving task. Then I say, well nothing to lose, I'll start snaring and kiting, since me getting aggro is easy.

We are cleared to first inside corner

me and monk go in and with some fancy pet pulling with out my pet buff, I single pull the defuncts without thier kirin buddies. and MNK and I kill them quickly. Meanwhile CLR is crying because we aren't waiting for them...

me and MNK clear up to west corner and group joins up there. We pull the hallway static spawns and then DRU says don't heal me and rushes one of the Furious rooms (the empty one btw). He never explained why he did that. (/shrug)

I pet pull Furious but pet dies so a kirin adds and I FD in Furious hallway. DRU gets rezzed in back in camp corner and suddenly Furious runs all the way out there and kills DRU again, and group engages. Kirin resets so I join them and help kill it.

CLR is screaming at us to stop and recover. MNK is asked me what he's so upset about...I tell them that we are doing this the slow, long way by killing the Creators guards before pulling creator.


MNK and I tell group to stay put so we have room to split guards. So the entire group moves back to patio entrance. (WTF?) I start splitting...

snare left, wait and FD
MNK tags the unsnared MOB.... (/sigh)
I tell him no and wait...
MNK FD and we finally get the one I snared. Group kills it, and next one simple.
Next pull I snare, ....wait FD, now tank pulls the unsnared MOB by running up to it, he aggro's the snared one too.. (/sigh). I DoT up the one that is snared and kite him in the hallway while group kills thiers (finally since it was a healer). I kite mine back since he's a healer too and group helps finsih it after it gates once.

BST is having some movement problems so he says he needs to reboot real quick. (WTF we are pulling the creator next....?)

I wait 3 minutes before I tell group I am pulling creator and we will kite it.

CLR tells the gropu, "He can't be snared or rooted"
MNK tells me, " He can be snared can't he"
Me, tells the group, "Yes he can be snared, I will kite him"

Took me 4 tries to finally land snare, kited him around with all my DoTs and WAR and MNK beating on it. No heals where needed. We win.... I immediately tell sgroup thanks, and disband, leave mission, and gate.

No more pickup Creators if I can help it (http://www.necrotalk.com/index.php?showtopic=5014)

Just one more reason that pickup groups with people you don't know suck! Sorry to hear your experience. At least you finished the mission :)

I had a fun one recently.

Uber raider tank and rog I think waiting in RSS.

Clr doesn't know how to get there, was following me from MPG zi, somehow doesn't turn with me to RSS Zi...

I try to tell Clr how to get there, says doesnt have maps /sigh

Finally gets in zone, we find see-invis mob up on way to fountain, uber tank attacks before clr is up steps.

Clr makes it in time to heal uber tank, mob dies.

Uber tank charges up steps, soembody doesn't re-invis and agroes trash, uber tanks runs back down steps and tanks, clr heals, mob dies. A few disparaging comments about not invising.

Uber tank/rog runs back up steps beyond our los, invis drops, and agroes the mob at the entrance to fountain camp, drags it to fountain.

The other 4 of us are casting invis (I've clicked and am waiting to move as one), and we start moving up the steps.

Mob is low hp when we get there.

Snare resist.
Mob starts to wander.
Snare resist.
Snare resist.
Snare resist.

mob agroes 2 or 3 other mobs, group wipes, I fd.

uber tank "do we have a snarer"
me "yes"

uber tank/rog drop group.

You must REALLY need crystals...


I woulda left after the 3rd pull. Normally my "creator groups" are 2 guildmates in guildhall, and me kiting it solo.
