I join groups with raid equipped low level alts as a recruitment tool and it works.

The game is supposed to be fun, there is no winning, it is all in the journey.

Solo grinding is worth nothing but a wasted life.

TLDR thread. I just assume if an enchanter is grouping that they suck at the game.

Depends on what the enchanter thinks the game is. That's a fact. I blast Donna Summer and get real.

Unless they're doing really hard/complicated solo loot camps then I would argue grouping is more difficult than soloing purely from the number of things you need to manage (i.e., crowd control when someone inevitably pulls a shit ton of mobs and monitoring that throughout the fight, charm breaks, keeping buffs and debuffs up, etc.).

This is kind of true

I stop turning LFG on as much but will always group if I’m asked because I like to see other people enjoying the game and feel like having an enc group greatly helps, but when I solo it’s super chill for most camps, can even go afk. With most groups when I play enc I really am constantly oom, people still chain pulling mobs, I don’t have mana for haste or slow, if charm breaks, I’m prob going to die, and I’m struggling to mez the 4 mobs this dude just pulled even though I just told him haste wmp or 5m, obvsly I ain’t got a rune up, even if I wanted to go afk I couldn’t [You must be logged in to view images.

It feels so intense, meanwhile I solo, play at my own pace, mostly sit down and meditate, watch YouTube, and exp and loots is better

Which again it’s a social game so I do try to play with other ppl, and I actually get a lot of help from other ppl, complete strangers help me with potg and stuff all the time but when I made op I was triggered becus ppl I always help seem to be taking advantage of me [You must be logged in to view images.
