I have been seeing a lot of new green sprouts over the time, especially recently, often as tanks, that well... Can't play their job properly. No flash, no aggro, no enmity combos... Well you probably have had to deal with that too. When you start getting into lvl30 dungeons or above, it gets really rough.
There is no issue with green sprouts not knowing their job perfectly, or being confused about their role. I expect that in low level dungeons (or even higher but still). You can't know your role like an expert in the first few weeks of play. You can definitely have trouble understanding how a tanking role in a traditional MMO is supposed to work because it's your first time, or for any other reason. Especially for tank roles. It's the most confusing one to get at first, especially as weirdly enough the tanking classes have the most difficulties to hold aggro at low level.
No complain about it.
Then you try to explain it to people, rewriting your remark several times to be sure it's not perceived as insulting or condescending, or just rude. You make everyting possible to appear friendly (and you are!). But they don't answer. They continue to fuck every encounter up to the point where you wipe against the smallest packs of mobs, because the healer gets interrupted all the time, or whatever.
You continue asking, offering help or advice, and they do as if you said absolutely nothing, or as if they speak another language. Fine then, you start using the autotranslate words and do actual, real efforts. Still no answer.Â
Then you get to the point in Haukke when you have to type /return. They get stuck behind like we all did the first time. Fine. You tell them to type /return, not expecting much since they don't seem to be looking at their party chat.Â
And suddenly, they use it.
Seriously man. Stop taking people for idiots.
So many of those. Grow some guts and say you are inexperienced. It's not the end of the world.
