As someone who constantly heals keys above +10, the higher I go… the more elitist people are. The barrier of entry for that range is extremely hard for new players and I sympathize with them. Too many often times I heal keys where the people with 2k+ io belittle or insult people who are trying to learn the game or attempting to do a higher key.
One of the experiences I had was today when I was healing a DoS +12 and the tank made a mistake on Hakkar, the hunter dps with a 2.5k io basically flipped on the tank and straight up insulted him and called him an idiot… the hunter threatened to leave. It was only my intervention that made him stay by calming down the situation.
I later added the tank as my btag request and he later told me that elitism like that made him want to stop tanking for M+ higher keys, I felt bad so I told him I’ll heal his keys whenever he needs me to.
I know I really can’t change anything myself, but there should at least be some sort of punishment for someone outright leaving because of their petty elitist attitude. Just my thoughts, I am just venting out my feelings. Let me know what you guys think.
That’s not really the point I’m trying to make. I was just giving an example of how toxic people in this game can be without any repercussions. Someone compromising an entire group by leaving because they have beef with one person should be at least given a deserter debuff at minimum.
What I don’t get is why ppl act like a you know what in pugs, if your that dam good go get a mdi team like the best players do.
Funny thing is I’ve noticed that the best players in the world are chill
The problem is that none of that is regulated behavior. Blizzard offers no assurances about your interactions with other players, and it’s for exactly that reason- they don’t want to have to intermediate every single petty and personal dispute that pops up.
This is what’s wrong. You are literally accounting for the 1% of the players who do 15 keys… most of player base are casuals, it would be a godsend if they even do a +7.
the forums keep saying this but there’s no evidence of this being true… there’s a strong correlation of the opposite… every bad player claims he’s casual…
