High iLVL, AOTC, CE and KSM people join LFG for the same reason they join LFR and also the exact same reason they join an AOTC only pug raid and the exact exact same reason they blow an an M15. It’s also probably the same people who purchase an AOTC run or M+ carries.
So they can look good and get into any group while doing jack all.
It’s not until someone with a DPS meter comes along and says “Oi mate, ya’ suck!” before they get called out.
I’ve seen people here openly admit that “I am buying an AOTC run so I can get into AOTC groups” and than proceed to make excuses like how they are good enough for AOTC, but still justify buying and AOTC run, admitting they are doing it just so they can get into an AOTC group or, in some cases, people have admitted they just want to start an AOTC only group so they can be carried.
I’ve been in those pug runs before in both raid and M+ where these fancy shmancy players do bugger all and I would get more enjoyment bashing my head against a brick wall. And once you are in enough of these runs you very quickly learn that if you are joining a pug run and you get these people who look good, but their mindset is that they just want to be carried, than you very quickly walk out.
This is exactly why I never pug for my own M+, I’ve been in too many runs where players think they are gods gift and it’s just not worth the risk to wasting your own time. Although I do tend to pug into M+ because if I see these players who just want to look good and not lift a finger, I just make some crappy excuse and walk out.
Any tank who knows how to breath will look at a 250 iLVL players and automatically assume they should have have a brain to pull more than 3K DPS no matter how small or big the pack is. But sadly some players are just dead weight, they decide before they even start gearing and getting an M+ rating that they are never going to put in effort.
Or they are just that bad you wonder why they were even able to make it that high in the first place and that is solely on Blizzard for allowing carries to even be a thing.
No one at 250 iLVL should be pulling the same DPS a 200 iLVL player can do, and I mean no one. My 195 iLVL warlock can pull 3K+ DPS.
