T4 Boss Parties are nothing but Carry Parties

With his change to Boss parties, now I’m in T4 and can carry myself, everyone that comes into my Party, they can’t kill the T4 Bosses.

Bosses were changed because of “leeching” But now instead of leaching Materials, it’s leaching for the Kills themselves.

I don’t see many players taking the time to fully MasterWork to survive Beast In Ice or Andariel.

I think there should be a requirement for players - having to kill T4 Andariel Solo before they are eligible to join a T4 Boss Party.

I don’t group for any bosses. Single player game IMO.

If I can do this solo, then why do I want a group? More useless loot to recycle…

It increases the drops though. So even if they leech it benefits you.

I dont group either. Never felt the need to. For those that do group, at least the leechers need their own mats to get the loot.

I don’t understand why anyone would care about this, even if it was happening, which I don’t believe it is. This is not a serious issue. It’s a silly issue for silly people. Just for this, I am going to offer carries for at least 2-3 hours today. It’s easy, I’m an over-geared Death Trap rogue.

I play in a regular group. I try and build what is suppose to be the strongest class and build so to help my group/clan. I’m usually the strongest player but most of my group, while weaker, are still rather strong. Playing in a group like this means being able to face T4 bosses sooner because there are people who will revive others to keep the fight going. If you play solo and die you have to start over from the beginning while a group can continue.

Yes, I also noticed the same thing. I got my Rogue to a point where he can comfortably kill T4 bosses and in 90% of the parties, I’m doing the carrying. Not only people with 180+ paragon don’t have the damage to kill the boss, they can’t even survive for a few seconds.

I think most casual players will never get to a point where they can kill a T4 boss. I also think they’d be lucky if they can carry their own weight. That’s how bad most parties are.
Not looking down on people btw, My barb(double swing and no ubers) is in the same boat. My sorc can do work but she can’t reliably carry a T4 party.

Youre playing with internet randos. This is the expectation.

No one is forcing you to group.

It is happening a lot - but to be fair it probably happened before it was just that the boss got one shotted before anyone had time to die.

I don’t mind carrying people - but the group should be marked as a carry group and people could say ‘thank you’ - it the entitled expectation that I will run around Andy’s tiny boss room whilst dodging all the chaos whilst they just stay dead because they all died on first mechanic.

Funniest is Duriel - his first attack - those little balls always hit in the same place - yet I’ve watched people die to them every time - I don’t know how people can be that bad at the game.

Here’s an idea, STOP listing your party and nobody will join.

They probably do it on purpose so they can focus on their other screen while you finish the fight.

Stand behind him before he spawns.

That’s 2. We might have to change your name to CaptOblivious.

Always works for me. He might take 10% of my health when he spawns but im so close that i can get my shots in on the first phase.

Dont really see the issue. You can always create your own party. If you feel like people are taking advantage of you, and you dont want that, you can just replace them.

Gee, many wanted open world, then they wanted party finders and now they complain about getting what they want… Go figure. Or as I say, be careful what you wish for; you may get it; just not how you envisioned it.

Exactly my thoughts…too much complaining…ppl can’t look at the bright side.

Meh.
I usually end up being the one who does the “carrying”
Either way with the extra loot from having other players, there aren’t many reasons to not just open a group up.

Except Belial, the way the chest makes an already slow and painful process just that much longer so when I’m farming off a stack or two of mats, I do it solo
