Ok so this is just a little rant because in game I've got the patience of a saint and don't like being confrontational. emotion_8c
Once upon a time my biggest pet peeve was 20 people all standing outside the gate with everyone trying to find a crew and no one starting one.
Then I discovered a very special, magical thing. The "invite" button, and my zOMG! world was a wonderful place again.
Not for long, for soon there was the problem of "would any of the higher CL people please heal/aggro?" and the response always being "no i cant idk how" "if i do everyone will die" etc.
But that too was quickly fixed. Only taking a couple ring CL swaps and some practice and learning how to heal/aggro. (at least well enough to not have everyone dying in yellow rooms) All was right with the world again.
But then... the most annoying things ever.
Long range rings.
I'm not super picky with the rings my crewmates bring outside of the assigned buffs. You feel more comfortable bringing defib? That's cool. You want Hack/Solar Rays/Shuriken/Hot Foot over Hack/Mantis? I can live with that.
Huh? You want to bring a combo Solar/Hot Foot/Shuriken/Guns Guns Guns/Hunter Bow only as your attack ring set? And proceed to fight from far away, aggro more monsters than necessary, and take a lot of damage that can't be healed by the awesome AoE healing from Wish with everyone else? emotion_facepalm
Then a new one that I hadn't given much thought to reared it's ugly head: Slash.
I had always assumed Slash was harmless. Until the fateful day we were mobbed by a few wolves, the Duct Tapers going at it only to rage as they found out something kept doing damage and breaking the tape. That horrid thing that nearly killed everyone being Slash.
Lastly - if you see 2 vampires attacking and me standing far away, it's not because I'm trying to run and stand in a safe spot, it's so the vampires attack only me and no one else. So when you run out of stamina, please do not come and sit next to me while the vampires are still alive and attacking.
Tl;dr -
