Schedule something, lasso more friends, have them lasso their friends...and if push comes to shove, grab that last PUG member or two (and have your friends be a wall between any possible meanness and you! You can always replace a douchebag). It takes a great deal of persistence to get it done, and that's just what makes the reward all the sweeter in the end!(11-28-2014, 01:34 PM)Berrod Armstrong Wrote:I had a very bad experience once that makes me near terrified of entering those types of things with people who I don't know. It was my first time tanking Garuda HM and as a tank I was nervous with 7 others.(11-28-2014, 01:18 PM)Melodia Wrote:Hmm! Okay. I'll guess at this point that party finder hasn't given you much to join. Have you tried putting up a PF group of your own?(11-28-2014, 01:14 PM)Berrod Armstrong Wrote:Finding a group. My new all time favorite reply is "Ah...well someday you'll get one." I hear that from most people and it makes me feel real swell.(11-28-2014, 01:06 PM)Melodia Wrote: someday when i beat T5....*sigh*Oh? What are you having difficulty with? Mechanics? Finding a group? Gear?
*table flips the game*
I messed up as the OT. And the MT yelled at me. But I stayed as I wanted to finish it.
I messed up again and others started yelling at me.
And we wiped again. A chorus of seven people calling me names and telling me I was the worst tank they'd seen, etc. etc. Hurt my feelings and for thirty minutes I put up with it until I just left in tears. Yes...a group of seven people I didn't know made a grown adult cry. I almost quit tanking that day and it took me a LONG time to get back in and beat it with a group of friends. And the same for Titan. I'm more comfortable today in my tanking and my gear helps cover small errors.
The point is, I am sensitive, and scared as hell about touching any new content without friends. Because they will be more forgiving when I make a mistake. Strangers I have found....can be quite cold.
