I still run in EE; with 600 or so members in a guild there are always a few morons, certainly does not mean all members are bad.
Anyways onto my personal moron encounter of the day. Firepower on Kyber. Multiple TR playing when I was grouped with him as a Lv 7 - 6 Sorc/1 Pali WF.
I joined a Deleras run for the XP weekend event and he was in it as the groups caster. Farming part 2 I started realising something was missing from the group. As the party was in full Zerg mode I was not paying too much attention to what was bothering me until I suddenly realised what it was on about the 3d run. It was the fact that our caster, Firepower, was doing jack shit in each run.
He would self-buff at run start, and that is the only spells he would cast though the entire run until completion unless he needed to heal himself. He was finishing runs consistantly with 95% of his mana bar full.
I watched him for about another 2 runs after first I noticed this behavour and every run it was the same. Self buff then pike his way though to the completion while the rest of the party dragged his lame useless ass to the quest end doing all the work for him.
No offensive spell casting ever; and certainly no party buffs (I thought he was at least hasting occasionally; but it turns out it was just another party member using a 30 sec clickie).
For all he was helping, we might as well had a Lv 1, 28 point build fresh off the korthos boat. At least they probaly would have have tried which is more then I could say for "Firepiker".
For a supposed 4x TR he claims in his Bio I must say certainly did not impress me much at all. And though the rest of the party was adaquately compensating for his unwillingness to contribute; I am thinking if this is his normal behavior in runs, I would be perfectly happy not to see him in any of my runs ever again.
*EDITE*
http://my.ddo.com/character/khyber/firepower/This is him; and look at the pure unadulterated crap he is using. 4x TR and at Lv 7 the best he can come up with to equip is a +3 Belt of Balance, ring of water breathing, two Expeditious retreat items and boots of detect secret doors?
Good Lord, I almost had better when I left Korthos with my very first toon ever made.
