Please, somebody tell me why, when someone aggro's the NM in a campaign battle, the first thing they want to do is run him over to where all the weakened people are resting, so they can promptly die and he can just go apeshit and kill everyone AGAIN?

Best is the Warmachine...I LOVE the fact that people just need to train him into a large group (that's 99% of the time already killing something)so, not only do they eat a death themselves, they get everyone else stunned/AOE'd to death as well. Awesome!

Last few battles I've been in have been SO annoying... >.<

Was in a battle night before last in East Ronnfaure, me as DNC and my trusty THF friend watching my back, fighting in a group of like 6-8 peeps on the hill (if you've campaigned in E.Ronnfaure you know where I'm talking about), one of which was a 75 PLD. THF goes to SATA on the PLD and he quick runs out of the way...I'm thinking "OK, maybe he didn't know what was going on" and let it slide.

Meanwhile I'm tanking and getting crushed with counters, using everything I've got to stay alive, when THF finally gets ready to SATA again, and wouldn't you know it, PLD sees THF getting behind him and immediately starts circling the mob so that THF can't stick hate on him. This happened at least 4 times, THF would get near PLD and PLD would freak out...he literally unlocked and ran AWAY at one point to avoid it...so it HAD to be intentional. WTF?! THF is like "UMM PLD WTF R U DOIN?!" to which we got no response...

Anyways, he pissed me off so I needed to vent. A few battles are really organized, most others just turn into a grabastic nightmare of death...

I thought the whole point of campaign battle was to MPK as many people as possible?

I know, right? Plus the guy literally never used his MP, not a single Cure...I shudder to think what regular exp parties are like with that guy.

I get annoyed when I'm waiting 5+ minutes for a campaign to end, only to run away from everyone else and see someone soloing a mob.

Omg dude. You suck. If it wasn't for Ranger's and Bst, campaign's would last 2 hours while 98% of the people wait for you to kill your mob 2 miles away. Talk aboiut ignorant and rude. If your gonna solo, fine...but if you can't kill it before the others are dead, don't be selfish.

I find that more times than not I get plenty more experience soloing a monster out the range of NPC's than I do joining in with everyone else at the outpost. Since you're performing plenty more actions, you get plenty more actions to be evaluated over. I can recall on one hand how many times I've taken longer than everyone else, too.

I wouldn't call it ignorant; more the opposite, since it's better experience. It is rude, yes, but as I said, I can only recall one or two occasions where I've not finished the monster off before the rest are dead. I always fight in sight of the Outpost too.

I hate so much when people solo the mobs. They are there for everyone to kill, not just you. The most annoying is when someone pulls it all the way across the map, so that I have to run in this huge arc around the fortification to even be able to find it on widescan. That's just selfish. I can for sure see pulling it away from the NPC's a little bit so you can get some experience off it without the NPC's just destroying it, but if you are a million miles away from the fight, then you are just wasting everyone else's time.

Then leave? How does that waste your time?

What I've found is that people who are rude enough to do it find it perfectly fine, while everyone else is frustrated with them. But if you think about it, it really is quite the waste. People sitting at the fortification have no idea if there is one mob being solo'ed in a corner somewhere or if there is another army on the way to fight, so it's difficult to leave. No one wants to leave a fight because they think someone is soloing, then sit in town for five minutes with no other fight on the map except that one, and realize that another army came. Seriously. Pull your mob away from the NPC's, fine. But don't be such a jerk that you need to pull it all the way across the map and waste everyone else's time.
