In order to get prepared for next tier and also out of curiosity I went last night on PTR trying to see the SoO bosses on LFR. After short time I got in a group which just wiped on Immerseus. They had already 4 wipes ( based on determination stacks ) and I was thinking: ok, by now everybody read probably the dungeon journal, we will eventually got it down. But I was so wrong ... we kept wiping either due to ninja pools or Sha Puddles reaching boss. After some ~6 more wipes the tanks were having ~ 1 mil HP and the rest ~ 700k hp ( in normalized 496 gear ! ) ... but still wiping. At that point I dcd and after restarting the game couldn't enter anymore ( duplicate char name ) so I just logged off.
Now my question is: why do casuals get on PTR ? And if they do, why they don't listen and are not able to switch to some adds when they see that because of that the group is dying over and over again ( 10+ times) ?
I know that normally as a raider you should learn the next tier on ptr in an organized group, but when ppl are on vacation or not all raiders care about ptr testing, ppl like me get in this situation. Ofc these are rhetorical questions ... but hey some of us haven't lost the faith in humanity yet Already I can imagine the initial wipefest which will be on live lfr and the following nerfs to some mechanics ... deja vu
