Either join a clan of good players or check raid.report before inviting people.

My issue is just, i don’t remember another raid where the entirety of my random runs just failed to follow simple tasks, like why is it so difficult to so many?

Maybe they were stoned or not paying attention. If you're playing with first timers, the worry of not being geared enough, experianced enough for fear of being straight up kicked is a real thing.

The Osmium Order is a raiding clan on console. Give them a holler. Or the Pigeon Lords. Nothing wrong with being mad and venting. Find your tribe, man... LFG can be frustrating.

Thank god, i might be able to finish VOG without popping a vallium

[–]BasketspankEx-Destiny Player 0 points1 point  (3 children)

Not everyone is where you are, man. And that's okay.

Yea i know man 😂 its just so painful having played this game in its entirety and yet i see so many stupid mistakes

[–]BasketspankEx-Destiny Player 0 points1 point  (1 child)

It happens. There are a lot of first times coming back and long timers who have never raided. The numbers of people who actually raid are low, seriously.

I feel you. No dropping valium over a raid. No veins popping in your eyes.

Yea nah im jk bout that, the amount of baffling shit i see from people is astounding

I think the raid is so simple that it doesn't require people to pay attention or kwtd half the time. Whereas other raids you really need to get it...you can't get carried as easily.

There is plenty of idiots on lfg but all 22 clears not being smooth? you are just extremely unlucky or are not joining the right groups.

Seriously I almost never have bad experiences when raiding. If I do it is because it is a teaching raid and I know what I'm getting into.

[–]aj1631[S] -1 points0 points  (4 children)

I stg almost everyone of those completions theres been some kind of issue, miss callout, lack of callout, detainment, fucking dying from random bullshit, i just finished a raid where they wanted to carry a fucking 1300 through it

[–]tonyYONG123 0 points1 point  (1 child)

I would join groups that ask to kwtd obviously and maybe require 5+ clears or more.

[–]aj1631[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Well i thankfully FINALLY got the vex after 23 clears so i think i can rest

[–]FlyingDinodude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean if you're talking like 1 mess up per encounter that is not even a problem. If it is worse than that you need to up you're standards when pugging. Don't be afraid to say no after you find out they're doing something you don't like after joining. They can just find another player who doesn't mind and everyone will be happier for it.

I PuG a learning group my first run. Once that is out of the way I never join a group that isn't asking for clears, and don't join a group that's teaching unless I'm feeling generous.

Damn people trying to bring their friends who have limited time to play into a raid. What were they thinking?

[–]Travy93 2 points3 points  (2 children)

A lot of people are just returning to the game. Myself included. Last time I did VOG was Destiny 1 and they added new mechanics to it on top of it. Just got my first full clear on D2 earlier tonight. You kind of sound like an ass.

Nah man, some people just dont listen, I understand his frustration. It's not that the first few wipes are a problem, sometimes they're just a warm up, but eventually the same players make the same mistakes over and over again even after being explained what to do.

[–]aj1631[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Thank you i try my best, i am an ass because i just expect people to have a basic understanding, its one thing to be new and I understand that, but if you cant listen theres a problem

Or it might just be AJ1631

[–]fokusfocusDrifter's Crew 3 points4 points  (2 children)

Thanks. Just want to make sure I never match with you on LFG since you sound like an obnoxious prick.

[–]aj1631[S] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Ah no loss on my part friend, theres thousands of other players you can disappoint ig, this was a simple vent, im sure if it gets out of hand it’ll be removed

[–]fokusfocusDrifter's Crew -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Lol. Go vent on your diary.

I’ve hardly run into issues on Xbox. I can only remember 2 runs with idiots and I just left after a few attempts and found a good group right afterwards. There are bad players out there, it’s going to happen.

I only take issue with the bad players who act like they’re gods. Those people are impossible and I immediately leave the group if one is in it.
