My encounter with Slidein

[tycohunden]

Who even quads spectres! You quad dorfs in BB dammit! To 49! Don’t worry, that wizard will never get myga blood with that game sence. Spectres are there for melee classes or derpy ass shamans

Lineage is trash. They claim to be casual friendly - but they are chock full of the same ilk of no-life, antisocial people as the other "big" raid guilds.

Sorry about your reroll, OP. The only way to avoid assholes in this game is by not playing.

Good post, though. I will treat Sildein with the respect he deserves, anytime I see him.

Finally a RnF that truly delivers.

I guarantee he saw your guild tag and deliberately attempted to kill you.

Next time hide your guild tag.

10/10 tho.

Slidein is clearly a newb and talking out his ass. The annoying part about the OOT camp is if someone is out there killing gargoyles and you want to quad the specs you have to be aware of their location at all times because your kite will get disrupted if you accidentally drag the specs within aggro range of that person sitting to med, etc.

Technically he's the one who broke the rules by training you unless you deliberately put yourself in range of his kite in order to mess with it (which it seems you did not).

If I was doing a permadeath run it sure as hell wouldn't involve being in that zone.

[cd288]

I've always thought permadeath shouldn't count deaths that result from blatant griefing like this. Should be fault of your own/groupmates. Blatant training shouldn't count.

I'll address this strange possibility that I intentionally killed off my character, which I took weeks to level up and would have to delete after dying, just so I could inconvenience him:

The corner of the island with the little tree is where I sat between pulls. When Slidein showed up, he sat right behind me, so he was fully aware this was the spot I was sitting in.

When he first showed up, I killed a few gargs while he was medding, then I left for about 10 minutes to sell to vendors and drop some weight.

I came back the the exact same spot, and he was finishing a quad when I got back. While he sat at the tree medding, I killed 3 more gargs, pulling each one to that same area - right in front of him - he saw all 3 fights and apparently started his quad as I wrapped up fight #3. The specs that he pulled on top of me were literally the first quad he did after I returned. He knew I was there.

Either he is extremely stupid and doesn't know that specs will kill people in range (which is possible from his responses), or he intentionally killed me. This was literally his first opportunity to kill me.

As I said - best case scenario is that he is reckless and hates other players.

There's something else I notice when I revisit Slidein's tells. He was using a staff of temperate staff. Lower element is not an AE spell. Level 40 is too low to single pull a spec - you cast at one, and the other three will all aggro immediately. It would have been very difficult for him to single out each spec and use the staff on it - they all look the same. Of the four specs he pulled on top of me, clearly two were attacking me - the pet communications reveal that. He only had aggro on one, two tops. The rest were social.

He's either REALLY stupid, or this was intentional.

Slidein sounds like a jerk.
