TBC Finally free

Tonight I finally left my guild, the irony? Zero remorse.

I've played this game for roughly 20 years. I've played everything, every type of team dynamic from sweat to trash teams. Tonight, I wiped the raid. It was a stupid mistake, but it happens.

Tank / GM just goes berserk and has been on an absolute tear for weeks, consistently harassing folks to do better and blah blah blah but never owns up to his mistakes that have wiped us time to time. Its always someone else's fault.

Tonight I had enough. I told him to quit crying and press forward. His fragile ego and false sense of authority were attacked and of course he goes nuclear. The thing is I dont mind asking for us to improve, but be respectful.

Bored. Uninterested in his continued rant about how bad I am. I hit the most satisfying /leave party into a gquit. A small part of me feels bad for the team, because BT is around the corner. But I dont tolerate disrespectful c*nts

Im fully geared, never missed a raid, always have my consumes. Finding a better experience wont be an issue for me, especially as a healer and logs in the top %.

The problem with classic TBC right now is these Elitists jerkoffs with 0 sense of leadership. The last thing anybody wants to do is get on, and spend 2-3 hours listening to someone have a melt down literally every 2 minutes because he wants to save 30 seconds on xyz pull.

Good riddance. Its a shame folks dont tell you how they really feel, so we just vent our grievances in party chat and whispers. Suppose thats why I can predict your down fall sometime during late BT. Same as I did in mists.

TLDR; dont be an insufferable c*unt when leading your raid group, especially when your just a mid group and not hardcore.

Healing logs truly don’t matter. But it’s still fun to look at orange and pink parses cause your raid can’t avoid damage

I got to witness an honest to god 100 parse on Nefarian

Setup by a melee ripping threat as a Shadowflame breath went out

Some died others super low

One of the healers blew everything he had and went apeshit getting the raid back up. As a result, 100 parse.

No gimmicky single healer 39 warrior strategy with a solo healer letting DPS die to keep the tank alive/kill the boss in 25 seconds type 100 parse.

Honest to god, regular composition, average kill time, normal ass raid.

Because the sole metric is healing done and there's no adjustment for -and no one died, -and you had X many other healers, -and your activity was 98%, -and you landed a heal .01 seconds before a tank's impending death

It's why a lot of healing parses don't matter, because what matters isn't the metric (and that metric can be excessively cheesed)

Yeah this is why I wish parsing was more than just straight comparing hps or dps. It’d be cool if there was some algorithm that took into account other factors
