With 1.6 the requirement of individual skill got lowered significantly but still you have to be stupid if you think that it doesnt matter how good the players in your group are.
The leader can't call out everything, he can't see everything. You need people who can still think themselves while following the crown.
All these people talking about how they can't put up a fight when they're not with their group because they aren't set up for it ... it's like they don't know there's an addon that will swap gear and skills with a couple of button pushes & mouse clicks. Stop making excuses.

That addon didn't work well for me for some reason, never changed my skills properly. And to be fair, I would change my skills on the go to duel people but more often than not I'm suck in combat because my group is fighting or because the game hates me.
He waited longer for alcohol, that was also a let down.

Yes and she's got a very sexy voice, too. You guys should totally Skype. Let me know if you are interested and we'll see if we can set this up. Mail me in game. User name is @catfish.

What context is that in? Did you get a good prox. det in on them or what happened there?
What I would like to point out, and is OFTEN lost in the shuffle, is that these group based players are often running builds that sacrifice a lot of personal capability and survivability to be able to fight in their teams. They work as interlocking pieces and not self contained units intentionally, that leaves some of those builds and group members extremely, extremely susceptible to 1vXing and 1v1ing.
As an example, I ran with TSym briefly back in the day and I would never, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever go out solo in the group build that was necessary for Coron Bale's team. 1v1 and even 1vX it was trash. It was utterly useless and couldn't solo a wolf except with heavy attacks. When locked together in the full raid, at the height of the TSym meta, that guild could take V4s and flatten full raids of highly experienced players because they were part of a bigger puzzle that was a greater whole than the sum of its parts. Hijinx did this often as well (my old Hijinx build was basically Impulse / Talons alternating spam on one bar and a raft of support abilities on the other), and many of us would completely regear just to walk out solo.
In 1.4, for example, I'd get TRASHED by a Sypher clone (and Sypher himself, of course) if I ran into them 1v1 with my group build. It was the way of the world.
Add to that my (and many other group players) 1v1 skills are pretty rusty. We usually don't spend hours on end dueling or soloing. And for the same reason I'm not good at the violin, I'm not good at that. No practice = no perfection.
OTOH, I watched a stream of Sypher trying to help Aetcha push hard for emperor on their AD toons. They got a bunch of Legend guys and people they trusted as good players and formed a near full raid.
And they got wiped over and over and over and over again by the Nexus raid. Why? They didn't have the practice and the tactical experience to handle it. Great players, one and all, but they did not have the builds that complimented each other. They did not have the organization to insure they had those skills firing off, and in the end it didn't work.
And there's nothing there in that anecdote that makes any of those players bad at the game, they just did not meet that one objective.
And that's how Cyrodiil is.
I just wanted to bring some of my own personal perspective to this in, hopefully, a constructive manner.

Please stop saying haters, why i should hate you for? did you killed my family in real life to hate you, i guess no.So there is no any hate toward you.

Bit of advice, perhaps you shouldn't attempt to be a rampant troll on open public forums if it's not your native language. Just ends up looking really pathetic and confusing. Generally I would be respectful about the language disparity, but you brought it on yourself bro.

Yes, it is ad hominem. Or if loosely translated: to attack ones character rather than answer their argument.
While my comment was admittedly rash and rude, you must understand how repeatedly calling myself and my friends no-skill slaves/monkeys might incite this kind of reaction. I implore you to read up and decide for yourself whether any argument this person offered was in any way constructive, and whether they even are worthy of your defense.

1) Not every time someone gets separated is it intentional, or for long. (e.g.; Crashed to desktop. Reloaded out of Cyrodiil, now have to traverse from gate to where group is)
2) Not every person has the in game funds to have a set of gear for solo play, as not every gear set compliments both solo and group play.
3) Not every player in the large groups has practice at solo play. As mentioned earlier, practice makes perfect, and they are often far from it.
4) With the rest of the group in combat, as soon as they're back in zone that solo member is often in and out of combat repeatedly and can't change their setup due to the combat bug.
It's like you blatantly go out of your way to condense some rather voluminous explanations down to the basest level of absurdity. Are you just trying to troll, or not get it?
I know Germantrocity, even with his extreme preference towards 1v1 and 1vX gameplay, at least gets it and understands why, yes, there are going to be legitimate reasons those group players are not optimized for 1v1 gameplay.
