CountEdmondDantes✭✭✭✭Just a bit of constructive criticism in regards to the "get rid of the archers comment" perhaps you could equip swarm mother if you're on a NB and pull them in for a faster burn. *(If the guy complaining is used to an end game DK tank he'd probably expect ranged adds to be chained in). Not a major issue, but it definitely slows things down a little not being able to pull everything together on trash fights.

He was referring to our two dps guys using bows, not the enemies
Just an aside, I've only been playing a few weeks and have run into this already. I finally ran my first group dungeon to complete a zone and when we were done, one of the group offered me some tips. Most were helpful but one tip was to get rid of the bow. Curious, I asked for an explanation and he/she explained that bows don't do as much DPS as other weapon or skill choices.
All of this was done in group chat, and after his explanation, another player in group whispered me with a different opinion, explaining they felt bows could produce enough DPS for dungeons. This player also explained this attitude used to be much more prevalent back a few patches ago (I could be wrong on this, but this is the gist of what I was told).
So what I took from this is that some group players don't like bow users - which is just one more reason for me to treat ESO like a solo game.

stevesherpa✭✭✭there's always two sides to a story and im willing to bet that healer probably felt the same about you. were you at least taunting the archers? maybe he was expecting you to chain them in but didnt realize you werent a dk
idk man, i wouldnt sweat it too much, you got the run completed and sometimes you cant control how much salt gets poured out.
Or maybe a healer who queue's up as a healer should, I don't know, HEAL?
Nobody is mentioned that fact - it is becoming more of an issue where DPS and tanks are expected to heal themselves and healers do so only part time....0 -
stevesherpa✭✭✭Personally, I dont get this rush rush rush thing. To save 5 mins? Then you wipe once and add 10 mins...1

Back when dinosaurs roamed the Earth, bows were phenomenally good in PvP. Then the major abilities got toned way down.
At this point, the bow is a really strong utility pick (for a lot of situations), but kinda tricky as your main DPS bar. But, there are a lot of players who came in after the nerfs, but before the reputation died, who believe the weapon is straight up trash.0 -
