Subject: RE: [eqbards] Mediocre players...


>I really don't know if it is a lot of "mediocre players" are hitting

There's a 45 Bard on my server who's sooo irresponsible and simply just
doesn't know how to play effectively. I'm talking about endless trains, no
twisting (constant Berserker Crescendo), doesn't listen to instructions,
clueless when it comes to pulling and has no understanding of group
dynamics. And a potty mouth to boot.

I'd say even a "mediocre" player is better than this person. Will they be
like this when they get to 50? Oh yeah.

Twink or not, if they're performing less than should be expected for their
level, I'd class them as a mediocre player.

I don't know what it's like on other servers, but on Bertoxx the number of
bad/mediocre players grossly outweighs the good. Pardon my French, but we
seem to have attracted all sorts of crap.

And now with the new experience bonuses? *shudder*

>he knows how to play his class?

I think it's safe to assume that his non-trade skills such as taunt, kick,
bash, 1+2hs etc. just won't be maxed out. Would you jump in a Ferrari with
a kid who's just got his licence?
