I PuG'd a random vet dungeon last night and landed in WGT. We blazed through as we should since we were all 810+. At the end the tank and healer both entered in group chat GG DPS! It was a small token of appreciation, but it really made me feel happy (and I'm sure the other deeps too). I've always been confident in my DPS role but I never expect praise. I'm usually the one saying wow...great heals! or GG tank you're a beast!
In a perfect ESO world all players would know their role and execute at a veteran level but as we know this is not always the case...
The power of a small but positive comment can do wonders to our communities confidence thus making our random experiences better, imo. Do you ever give praise to your random group after a quick and efficient clear whether it be a vet dungeon or quick crag trial, etc.?
95% of the time I type in "GG" (Good Game) but I always give credit where credit is due if a certain role is on the level.

✭✭✭✭✭If the dps points their weapons in the proper direction and do 4k+ dps, I thank them at the end. If the tank has a taunt slotted and uses it, I thank them at the end. If the healer has a heal slotted and uses it on the group from time to time, I thank them at the end. You'd be surprised how often I leave at the end without saying a word.5 -

✭✭✭I'm a firm believer in the carrot and stick method.
I give props where it's due and ridicule you when you mess up.
Take a PUG run of vCoS run I had awhile back. No one would bash the boss when I was tied down, usually resulting in a wipe since they weren't great players, obviously and couldn't stay alive to save their lives so I call them out on it. One DPS slotted Crushing Shock to interrupt the adds to free me and I praised them for their initiative after actually being able to block the boss to survive his attacks now. However, since the other 2 were still beyond useless, we ended up disbanding when we were still unable to clear it, despite the 1 DPS's best efforts to stay alive to interrupt adds (minute useful DPS went down, 2 useless people left him down forever and we'd end up wiping as a result). I gave the useful player praise (even gave them a perfect roe) and told the other 2 players to git gud before we disbanded.Argonian forever1 -

cHIIMEERa✭✭✭Iv never really thought about thanking someone individually. To me a good DPS/heal/tank is doing what he is supposed to. I thank everyone for the run though.“Good judgement is the result of experience and experience the result of bad judgement.” ― Mark Twain1 -

To me it's more of a PvP thing. Like great match or great BG. But I guess it fits just as well with dungeons and trails.0 -
StormeReigns✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭Well... technically yes? As a contracted artist I am often tasked to make characters, crowds, environments and the occasional prop here and there, and I do have to give them to the next artist... so yes, I do give props.
Oh... you meant a different type of props?0 -
thorwyn✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭I always say "hi" and "well played all" (or gg sometimes) and I always /f people with some encouraging words when they performed extremely well for their CP or level.And if the dam breaks open many years too soon

✭✭✭I use GG after killing someone in a duel mainly....Easier then GF
With dungeons I enjoy the conversations and burn stuff down. I always give a congrats at the end and then we go on our merry ways. Though they tend to follow me around because I do 'fungeons' as we call them with my friends and guildies.
Pugging upon the rare occasion that it happens, I always say hello and something nice at the end.
Being polite and mainly friendly is what is so nice about the eso community.3 -

✭✭✭✭✭I always say a minimum of “gg” wether they were good or not as long as we finished.
I’ll type out full words when I’m sincere/impressed/was struggling myself. Like “nice nice nice!” “Great group!” “Ty all happy hunting!”#FiteForYourRite Bosmer = Stealth

El_Borracho✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭Always do a GG, even if it wasn't a stellar effort. As a DPS, if the tank and/or healer does a great job, I call them out specifically in the chat. Like "Killed it tank" or something like that.0 -
D0PAMINE✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭I went into vBC II going for HM. We pugged the tank from one of my guilds. Even though we only need 3 Daedroth, tank was able to hold 8 of them. I asked him what setup he was running, as he did a very nice job, and found he had Tank gear but with weird traits like Invig. I would deffinatly run with him again and added him to my friends list.0 -
wishlist14✭✭✭✭✭
✭I do say gg to our group wne we finish a dungeon or sometimes other players say it. I also say gg to new players where it was their first try at the dungeon and they finish it ....even if they died a few times or not. They had a go that is always important to me. Anyway it"s not upto me to judge who is a good player or not we have all sorts in eso and that is what makes it interesting.

The way to know that a healer is good is.... you don't notice that they're bad. Healing and tank seem pretty thankless because if they do their job right you won't notice anything.
And yeah, I give props. I like to either give the group a pat on the back if we kicked ass or will give extra encouragement to someone who was new, trying their best, and did well.1 -
pattyLtd✭✭✭✭✭I always say hello at start and after finish i cheer and say thank you before i say goodbye.
Most of the time its only me and my bf that do so though.
I actually dont really care how good they are performing as lomg as they try their best its good enough for me. i like when people wait or check if others are following and small things like that just makes it more relaxing then the gogogogogo crowd imo Edited by pattyLtd on May 15, 2019 10:12PMEnglish is not my native language, no grammar police please, tyvm0 -
