Maybe it's because I'm Scottish and I'm playing up to the tight/frugal stereotype but something that irks me no end is when people open their fast travel map and FT when stood right next to a Wayshrine. Why? I know it's only 146g, but it's better in my character's pocket than in virtual no man's land. I could be sitting pretty on a mountain of 20m gold and I'd still grudge paying that 146g if I was stood right next to a wayshrine.

I don't mind doing it if I'm in the middle of nowhere with no shrine around and it saves me the ballache of having to ride to the next shrine, so i'm not against just opening the map up.

    Rarely if ever are people paying to travel if they're doing it from right next to a wayshrine. They're traveling to a friend, group member, or guildie most probably. I don't even remember the last time I actually payed for a recall to wayshrine.

    Yeah, I've never understood that. I see people do that every day. Maybe they don't know how to use a Wayshrine?

    I appreciate some people do that, but I have ended up in the same destination as some of the people doing this. A few times I've been running quests parallel with others and they have fast travelled back to the main town rather than use the shrine we're stood next to. They're there handing the quest in. Insane.

    Could be they're caught up in the moment and don't realize it,also some places undiscovered can only be arrived at by porting to friends and guildmates. I used to do that on new chars just to have a door to the zone.

    If they have the Luminary Transporter Addon, pulling up the map gives a list of players on the map that you can port to for free, porting to a Guildmate or Friend or Group Mate is free.

    On the other hand, I have pulled the map up plenty of times to plan where to go, then hit the wayshrine on the map thinking I had activated the wayshrine. Hint, walking before you actually go anywhere cancels the port and does not take the gold.
    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

    People who leave an item in a node when they are harvesting. It is so annoying to find a lock pick or a single worm in a node keeping it from respawning. These people need to die in a fire.

    Two things:
    A) New/low level characters asking for gold instead of playing the game,

    B )People in overland dragging mobs to you while opening a chest.

    B is by far more annoying to me when it happens but A seems to happen every time I walk around a city.

    Goto does the same thing.

    I've now completely forgotten who it was, but I was talking with another player one time who had played for over a year before realizing you could use wayshrines for free if you went up to them and then interacted with them instead of just going to your map...

    I don't know if prize-stealing is trivial, but it's the only thing ever that makes me want PVP.

    Also, when Zenimax took away my occasionally-played DK's primary attack and didn't refund points (fiery grip). It's now higher up in the tree than I can use but my SPs are still committed to it.

    People who rush in front of you to get scrub resources or quest markers. Dude, a simple chest isn't worth running for.

    That's the only time I pull mobs onto someone, or use an invisibility pot to get through mobs that they have to fight through and kill the boss before they get there.

    I'm normally very courteous and let other people get chests, dolmen anchors, etc. But if someone's being a real Ninja several times in a row I start to play every "gitgud" trick in the book.

    After i, the tank gathered all the trash mobs at one place, probaly at the boss so we can aoe them down, a dps have to chain one of the npcs away because reasons.
    I try to face the boss away and that dps have to stand with me, getting oneshooted by a single aoe hit.
    Dps standing on red ground, except in veteran elden/elden ii where they avoid the white ground spawned by that lurcher boss.

    Yeah, that's great. I remember once I've joined to heal a trial run of another guild to help them out. Before engaging the boss I asked which strategy they want to use as they were several options. No response, the leader just started his countdown and we engaged. I asked again, still no response. Then the leader started complaining why I didn't follow the "well known" strategy.

    Later I noticed that the leader had muted everyone else on ts when starting the trial, so he doesn't get disrupted :s
