Never know what you will get to play with when you queue for normal!!

glass cannons that melt stuff, but die if they trip over a centipede!
Tanks that taunt everything at once...or nothing at all
healers that are still leveling the healing skills and rely on 1 skill...
super chatty folks and those they say nothing at all!
people that say they know the mechanics and ignore them!


Either way loads of fun and adventure to be had! At the end of it all tonight no vote kicks and everyone got their keys.

Ummm stuff… about stuff…or something.

    I have a love/hate relationship with PUGs. I don't really have the time to get into guild runs or a schedule so I rely on the GF unfortunately.

    Get into a relaxed PUG with smart players and it's awesome.

    Get into a "sprint to the end, not waiting for the tank" PUG and i want to bail.

    Get into a "nobody has an effing clue" PUG and i'm in for a good night. (actually have more fun with these than the sprinters)

    The not knowing is what draws me to it

    There was a bug where siege shield increased the range of abilities used in it

    I'm pretty sure it has been fixed, but that healer may have been smarter than you think ;)

    I'd be willing to float that idea if everyone wasn't already within 10m of the boss when they plopped it down. :p

    I have a stamina sorcerer tank hybrid that back bars bow basically opens with bow aoe and then swaps to sword and board and stands in the center of my aoes. But it's not my main attack by any means.but it is useful to have more DPS to add, my pure tank is far more durable but my god the damage is pitiful

    Ummm stuff… about stuff…or something.

    Well, you can't ignore something if you don't know it's there to be ignored in the first place. Dude, really, c'mon.

    One thing you did not mention was healers that queue as healer, and don't heal the tank, did not even heal themselves and they died like 4 times during a normal dungeon run. They were around CP 500 and playing a Warden. So I ended up having to become the healer and using the twilight matriarch ability during a Wayrest Sewers II run.

    Well i was trying to stay positive about the things you dont expect that make it fun....some fake queu jumpers just make it not fun, and there are enough angry threads out there about that stuff

    That's actually the intended effect of one of the morphs. It is used in vMoL to extend the range of chains.

    Allways funny with players that dont know the taunt mechanics, like Heavy attack from ice staff, or puncture from sword and Shield. They taunt the boss unknowingly and starts running like crazy when boss attack them:)

    As ridiculous as that is at least that guy was trying to protect you, misguided though his attempt might have been. I have seen double bow pew-pewers in normal PUGs spamming light attacks as healers because they queued for everything and that's what they got.

    Nah that's not true. Doing random vets with pugs is HILARIOUS. It's actually a shame that they locked vWGT to 300CP+.
    I used to have so much fun with CP50s running these dungeons and failing over and over and over at Planemeld Observer no matter how many times the mechanics were explained to them.

    ignoring mechanics really depends on if you skip through the mechanic entirely with enough dps.With some groups it really comes without even trying.
