[quote]It’s bad enough the changes they made with the oracles but the toxicity and elitism of people in these lfg groups is unbelievable. My clan was short 2 guys so we ended up using lfg and found some people to fill the spots. These 2 guys said they had an Atheon checkpoint and ask if we could start there and they’d help us with the beginning parts after so we agreed. Now this was our very first time in the raid learning everything and these guys had already played and made it to Atheon. So we start and their we a few mistakes but after a while we were getting the hang of stuff. All of a sudden these guys say um I don’t think we will get this done the damage isn’t enough. Now these guys were putting out similar to less damage than everyone else and were making mistakes as well. They just continued to be negative and no longer wanted to help anymore. It’s just ridiculous how people just don’t have the patience anymore to figure out where the mistakes lie, correct it and keep pushing. They rather be negative, create tension and anxiety. People want to beat the raid just as badly as these elitist pricks. Thus why raid should’ve stayed the same as it was in D1 and challenge mode should’ve had the changes.[/quote] I would say there's a couple key things to learn from this. First and foremost, that's just how humans are in general. LFG is always going to have bad apples, just like real life. There are plenty of people that are fine though. Secondly, if someone tells you they have a checkpoint for an encounter that's further than you've ever gotten before, NEVER, EVER skip forward like that. For SOOOOO many reasons. I can guarantee a couple things that will happen. 75% of people that ask you to skip forward are NEVER going back to help you regardless of what they say. You will have a much less complete/fun experience doing things out of order for the first time. But most importantly.. raids are DESIGNED to be played from start to finish without skipping, as early encounters give you muscle memory and teach you small things about later encounters. The final boss of a raid usually culminates in multiple things you've learned from other encounters.
