Update: Bingo Card Links Now Work! Also, another card added.
I’ve covered the good side of fast forming pugs with the latest patch…. now time for the ugly side of pugs cross realm.
There has been some bingo cards circulating the wow blogs originally found on the official forums. They explain how crappy pugging can be. (most of these refer to lvl 80 toons)
I have found a few more that should be on these cards…
- Tank goes AFK after the first boss in VH for 5 mins.
- DPS pally wears all classes of gear (cloth, leather, mail, plate) and has a complete mash-up of stats.
- Hunter doesn’t have pet out entire instance
- Pally tank exclaims “Pallies aren’t designed for tanking” yet checked the tank box just because its faster.
- First time ever tanking.
I’m sure there’s more. I will update when I find more to complain about.
Another issue I have with pugs is that since everyone is cross realm the chances of running into someone again is very slim. This is an issue because since theres no cross toon reputation issues few bring their “A” game.
Example:
Problem: Loot issues.
Answer:Toons bring their “B” game.
- The tank can decide to get certain people killed.
- The healer can not heal people.
- Cc can grind to a halt (if cc is ever needed).
Cross realm pugs can be a great leveling tool but, can easily turn from good to bad to pugly in the blink of an eye.
