Kill mobs you aggro, don't run trains through a zone...

Zyrudin✭✭✭✭This is only relevant when done on purpose to steal nodes and chests.
I see this too often.
Someone lockpicking a chest, for example, someone else aggros mob onto him, interrupts lockpicking and starts the cooldown. First player has to fight, second player gets earlier shot at the chest.
Sort of the same with nodes, only with the gathering animation interrupted by attack, instead of the lockpicking process.0 -
That was hilarious in some games. I remember in some early MMO's you could aggro half the map and have a train stretching back for as far as you could see. And they would aggro on anyone who got in their way. That doesn't happen in modern MMOs like ESO with short leashes on mobs and anti-kiting mechanics. And the mobs don't aggro on anyone passing by so it's not really a concern.
I still remember the first time I read "TRRRRAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIINNNNNNN!!!!!" in zone chat on EQ. Hilarious as my little level 4 character got mobbed by 30 Orcs.1 -

Honestly, I kind of enjoy that - it keeps you on your toes and puts a TINY bit of danger in an otherwise pretty non dangerous world.
Exactly the issue :-)
Not stopping me from Rez flopping my way to the skyshard.

Lavennin✭✭✭It's much more annoying when other players don't want to sneak during the brotherhood questline.
These quests should be instanced. Really ruined my fun, seeing others just run up to the NPCs and fight them.
Had to wait ~15 mins for these people to leave.
Why, do the devs just want these quests to be like regular delves?0 -

✭Kill the mobs... don't kill my mobs.. there is just no pleasing everyone!
Go back to pre-One Tamriel & there were all these threads of "CP531 killed all my low level mobs... waaaaahhh!' & all the righteous forum posters be like "well I never do that, I just ride through as fast as possible trailing the mobs behind me". Now we have come full circle!NA Server [PC] -- Mostly Ebonheart Pact, Mostly.0 -

✭Ha ha..these damn blue falcons in public dungeons. Yeah, yeah.. oh, I don't want to fight off them mobs when I don't want to, but you have a train of mobs that you have aggroed following you. Then, when you come upon me who is fighting off a group of mobs, my attacks and hits also aggro those mobs train you just brought with you. Oh yes, you don't stop or help and just keep on trucking away, while I'm now fighting off double or triple size the mobs. Thank you much.. blue falcon!0 -
Shadow_Viper_vX✭✭✭✭✭I'm sure some people do it purposely in an attempt to grief/troll other players.
Best to report these people.0 -

I do it because I'm alone in a public dungeon my stamblade can't kill anything in, so I'm hauling arse to the skyshard and getting the hell out of Dodge.1 -

Baconfat79✭✭✭✭Sorry, but no. If I'm on the way to do something, I'm not stopping to kill every trash mob in my path. I want to get things done in a quick and efficient manner. What does it hurt?0

Pwnyridah✭✭✭Feign death trains in EQ1, then lose xp on death. That was something to be mad about. I personally love it when someone else clears the way by running through in ESO. Gotta get in the pocket and run with them!0

AoDD33pfri3d✭✭✭If they're within leash distance it's like a free xp gift - just aoe them and mudball the loser training them.
Don't mud ball them if they dodge it they can get their ultimate back quicker. I now aoe mobs in the rift near the ww shrine, people jumps in to kill them and hangs around but guess what? I made a new friend to play with or farm with.0 -

I don't think I've ever bought a soul gem. And I believe one of my bankers has a couple of stacks. And I'll give them away in dungeons if communicative peeps need them.0 -

My stamblade died a lot early on. I mean a lot. I get most of mine from bosses.... That I couldn't solo then, so I tried to keep a few on me.0 -

Regarding to this, I find it funny that in wrothgar the fastest traveling method is often jumping off a cliff, respawning at wayshrine and then traveling where you want to go
