"I'm top DPS here chief", the epic adventure in Blackfathom Deeps.

**cphantom** · 2010-01-22, 04:59 PM

So a friend and I decided to start working on some alts with RAF, and have been having one hell of a time with new and/or bad players. The things that have been said are hilarious.

He started a Tauren Warrior (Prot), I started a Tauren Druid (Resto). We decided that this would be the quickest way to queue into dungeons, get our gear, and continue quickly through leveling till 60. It's gone pretty good so far, and its worth the hundreds of laughs we've had together considering we play inside the same household ninety percent of the time.

Anyway, so Blackfathom Deeps popped in the random, and damn, this was hilarious. Our little Lock buddy, who's name I have whited out for his sake, decided that he'd be wanding the whole time. We politely asked him to please start casting to help clear things much much faster, and he did for about two mobs. My friend decided that he'd let him know that he would be kicked if he didn't pick up his spot (BFD is srs). The guy's response was absolutely hilarious...

And yes, my UI is garbage at the moment, but having all my current healing spells macros to the mouse with the whole Grid/Clique thing is quite nice, as it is my first time healing on any toon and have been pulling it off nicely at these lowbie levels. :]

Anyway, discuss your own hilarious scenarios if you've got them. I just found it so ridiculous a lock was saying that, after we talked to him about life tapping, and then drops. Also "I'm Top DPS here, buddy". It had us rolling on the floors, almost literally.

I was dead in eight minutes because of a druid wanting a drink from the mage. Soulstone, pull everything, jump to a safe spot, ressurect, hearthstone, /dance. roflmao.

I did the same thing with one of my buddies as well I made a resto shaman and he made an orc warlock at lvl 55 he switched to a frost death knight. I love when the dps start fighting with each other about who doesnt deserve to stay and what not me and my friend usually threaten to leave because we litterally queue in 5 seconds and they usually stop

Actually I kind of like your UI, what are you using?

As for the people saying they only DPS on bosses, its hilarious that people actually think that way, if your going to wand/white damage or whatever between bosses you are really not needed and should be kicked to make room for someone with a brain.

DTK. Novos fight.
Group: Resto Druid, Prot Paladin, Ret Paladin (Me), Shadow Priest, other interchangeable DPS.

I go up the stairs to deal with adds spawning, everyone else stays down to kill the four casters.

Half way through, the tank starts yelling for the Shadow Priest to go up the stairs. This is a surprise to everyone else, since it's not remotely difficult to one-shot the mobs on the stairs. Several of us ask why, he just keeps saying it. Growing irritated, he begins typing in all caps, "PRIEST GO UP NOW" and the like.

The Priest continues to stay at the bottom, as he should. After the last add at the bottom (After the stair adds stop spawning also), the tank gives up and yells "FINE IF YOU WON'T GO I'LL GO" and runs to the top of the stairs to stand next to me. Apparently he is unaware that the adds have stopped coming. I run down the stairs and wait for him to follow and tank the boss. He doesn't. He stands at the top of the stairs while I Ret-tank the boss. As soon as the boss dies, he moves back down and starts into the next room. Everyone's asking him what that was all about, and why he couldn't accept that there was nothing wrong with what we were doing.

His only response: "You can't do that fight unless you put a caster on the stairs." Apparently he wasn't present for the encounter, as we just did it without. Even more baffling, he decided that he would go up at the end. I guess a Prot Paladin can stand in for a caster DPS. He then tells us that he's "Not here to teach baddies how to play" and drops group. I switch to Prot and we finish the instance.

I still don't even know.

"Not here to teach baddies how to play"

That one always gets me. That or "I'm not here to carry baddies". See those phrases in my book make your worse than someone who doesn't know how to play their own class. You can make up for bad dps, you can't make up for bad attitudes.
