Biggest problem I have with SoF is the other tank being a fucking derp.
Strat used : Get healer's residual aggro to lead the mobs to the front, we peel them off him.
Me : Waits at front for sacrificial healer
Them : HERP DERP GOTTA GET THE DUDES OH WAIT VISHAP JUST MOVED I NEED TO MOVE THEM BACK WAIT WHY AREN'T THEY MOVING WITH ME
Strat used : Both tanks cover each side of the bridge
Me : Heads to left
Them : HEADS TO LEFT AFTER SEEING ME HEAD TO LEFT BECAUSE YOU KNOW
Strat used : OMG OMG OMG WE FUCKED UP
Me : Carefully climbs up the tower to get the adds that climbed up, peels them off the killsat controls, brings them down
Tank : Is dead, complaining that I'm actually doing my job of getting these fuckers in front
Also, Vishap's damage is pretty damn high, and there are groups that'll complain about the tank getting hit too much after complaining that the tank's dodging AoEs thus ensuring that adds are following him instead.
I don't care so much about the difficulty at this point, but let's see - What do you get after one of the most frustrating mandatory experiences in the game?
Loot : NOPE
Lights : Gentle / Bright (in window)
YEAH, FUCK THAT SHIT. There is a reason I absolutely refuse to do SoF. I'm sorry, pre-made groups that are asking for help in actual LSes and will likely know what they're doing, but I'm not subjecting myself to this trial ever again. It's just not worth it.
(oh and even better, it completely destroys Duty Roulette : Trials because you're GUARANTEED to get that one since people need clears for it)
