Idk it's just confusing how somebody can consider this fun and go ahead and flex their stats like they've won the Stanley Cup.
Somehow I just can't find this interesting or consider it some sort of achievement.
Sorry.
Having world records is definitely something you can flex on, in my opinion
They worked very hard for that obviously.
I still don't think it's really something worthy of bragging.
If anything comes to my mind it's... Quite shameful actually. I mean, aren't there more meaningful things?
I don't mean to be rude. Maybe I haven't been playing games as much to understand.
So, unless someone cures cancer, so aren't worthy of any praise?
Got it.
Well no, you can do meaningful things in life that develop your skills, personality, character and even do things that people may love you for.
This isn't really something that should be glorified, but that's just my opinion I guess.
Whatever floats your boat. Keep doing things that make life fun for you. I just think it's a waste of potential talents.
How's the weather up there on your high horse?3 -

I don't see how raiding isn't a skill, and I can assure you that serious raiders invest a huge amount of time trying to get better and achieve new goals. Really isn't any different than a sport in essence imo. You work with a team to accomplish a goal. My group is nowhere near Hodor tier but we get a lot of enjoyment out of pushing for titles/scores and getting better at the game in our respective role(s). If the argument is that people shouldn't play video games because they aren't "meaningful," I'm honestly not sure what you're doing here on a video game forum of all places. If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all? I see as little point in attacking a harmless post as you do in raiding apparently.

Yeah it is definitely exploiting... it isn't like ZoS massively encourages it or anything with:
1. Ingame tips
2. Gear such as Zaan, Spell Strategist, Relequen, Maw of the Infernal etc.
3. Skills such as Merciless Resolve and Elemental Weapon (an absurdly pointless skill without weaving)William Thorne - EP Breton Sorcerer

✭✭✭✭✭*mumbles something about foxes and grapes*Idk it's just confusing how somebody can consider this fun and go ahead and flex their stats like they've won the Stanley Cup.
I mean, why do people celebrate winning the Stanley Cup? It doesn't actually matter for human progress or whatever, so why behave like they achieved something?
People did a thing. They're proud of doing the thing because it's a thing not many can do. They're telling others that they did the thing.
Which is normal human interaction, not rocket science.
This is Hodor dude. They've been telling us "they did the thing" numerous times now. It's become expectation so much that it's no longer considered an achievement worthy of a congratulations, but merely a "Oh yeah, good job guys, so when's the next thread?" They've created a monopoly on content completion.
And also, I find this part of the OP;An extremely difficult achievement to obtain due to the hard competition, but we did it.

True, in a way it's nothing to be proud of. But it's still less sad than you feeling the need to point this out and being envious of their achievement.

✭✭✭✭✭They've created a monopoly on content completion.
Nothing is stopping others from doing the same thing. The reality though is that it's just very difficult. For them to squeeze out the most points and top the leaderboards, they have worked hours together and separately, optimizing their individual builds and skills, building group coordination, coming up with more effective strategies to do fights, etc., not to mention the number of runs. This is not a trivial matter, so far as end-game is concerned. Of course by now, they are a well-oiled machine, so I imagine new things definitely come easier to them, but that doesn't mean they still don't put the work in the PTS, updating their builds and so on. You can say what you will about whether the posts are warranted or not, but the achievements/scores in themselves require a lot of dedication and effort and are nothing but admirable, at least for those who like that side of the game.3 -

So, why then do people not react that way, and instead complain or insult? If this thread consisted mostly of posts along those lines, I'd be totally fine with that. (And we probably would see fewer Hodor announcements. ) But it doesn't.And also, I find this part of the OP;An extremely difficult achievement to obtain due to the hard competition, but we did it.
Extremely humorous.
Why?
Not in the "we want to be top in everything at the same time" category, I assume. But for the individual top spots, there is competition. Although I don't know how much.Edited by Varana on February 26, 2019 5:07PM0 -
