Has anyone else noticed the WoE leeches have been getting worse?

It's gotten to the point where we'll only enter if the zone is completely empty, and will still get 1-3 leeches who come out within 20 minutes of us entering the zone. Also an increase in the number of douchebags who lot stuff we farmed for our members or send us /tells saying "I just need X/30 more to finish!".

No ***, so do we. Why the *** do you think we're in there fighting?

It was annoying enough when people who were already there just followed us in no matter how many other empty battlefields there were. Last night we had a whm/sam duo stand waiting for over an hour for us to enter a battlefield, then follow us in. With their setup they could have easily farmed coins in any of the other confluxes, so why follow us besides laziness and greed? We even offer to leave the zone to them and take another conflux, but they just continue to follow us around until we give up for the night.

Being actively camped every time we run is just HELP I AM TRAPPED IN 2006 PLEASE SEND A TIME MACHINE, especially when it's being done by people who have endgame Linkshells (we've been leeched by Kupo and LosNoobs members recently) that could easily help them with it.

Has anyone figured out a good way to keep these people off their backs, or does everyone else just suffer through the retards as well?

It's this way on every server. Suck it up and deal.

The gear isn't worth a ***, and the majority of your coins come from the top 5 chests anyway. So just let people alternate between pld,cor, and rdm (The three jobs that destroy in terms of total exp gained and top 5 chests obtained) and stop worrying about the people that come into the area.

No one gives a ***about the gear, like I said, we're there for coins. The issue comes when there are pouches in the final pool, and your members lose lot. It's the only point in the process where you can actually steer the correct coins towards the member who needs them, and it's frustrating when they get outbid by people who didn't contribute to the clear.

Yeah majority of my coins came from getting top five and asking others to pass since they didnt have a single coin to begin with, usually just spammed #2 with random for the win, took about 3 weeks to get my GA not to mention being out lotted by people that have no idea what there were used for, it burnt me out i only go to it on Mondays and Saturdays now, but im looking forward to obtain two more weapons.

This is why I go with the JPs on the weekends in the wee hours of the morning. It's all random people, everyone participates, and no one whines when they lose lots on coins.

The system is set up as it stands. You'll just have to get over it, or stop doing walk of echoes.

Cool bro, I'm happy for you. I don't know why you keep saying get over it, I'm getting by just fine doing it while still wanting it to improve.

I am a leader of WoE, i experienced the same issues. Many leeches just came in and lot anything that drop even coins. I don't give ***about gears or anything, but coins for members that needed. I still think SE needs to do something about it. I am at 11/30 for Coins of Birth. It was not easy to do WoE with leeches, but I learned my lesson. We just do it and finish it. I told all members if i get outlotted by leech on any coin, all of my members just lotted it to beat them. it sucks. lol

I know that feeling, the weapons are putting out some pretty godly numbers. Three of our five members have weapons so far, and three people within 10 coins each of finishing another 3. We're not going to stop running regularly until everyone in our group has at least their first choice weapon. We're a small group of good friends, so we're dedicated to getting everyone what they want.

Then again, that's probably why we take it personally when people take drops from our priority weapons.

I don't see how retards can justify their leeching in Walk of Echoes. It may be an open event, but it's linkshells who are responsible for the organization and tactics of the battle.

We got so sick of leechers (And mind you, there is a difference between a contributing random member, and a leecher) that if we saw one of the "Trademark" leech jobs (Mostly PLD/WHM, but generally anything /WHM and not sac puller is a leech if they're on a Melee-oriented job) we would just up and leave the run. We did that 3 times, and our token leechers (They seriously started camping my runs, cause I was one of the few who could successfully do the Natrix fight with only 6-8 guys, as well as the Blob run) eventually lost hope. So if you want to get rid of them, you really have to opt for a MAD type position on the runs. (Mutually Assured Destruction)

I hate when people say "leech" off others' LS runs. This is the way SE designed WoE , anyone can join in , regardless if you organized the run or not , you can't stop them from joining in. Blame SE for making it public then or don't bash people around for joining in to farm coins.

This, this, 1000 times this

This would make sense, if 9/10 the people entering weren't completely *** PLD/WHM feeding the mob TP and making ***10,000,000 times harder.
