Trials Lighthouse Sherpas, Good or Bad?

They are good, they help make a person's day and the Sherpa is giving back to the Community.

They are bad, it lets people get flawless handed to them and the Sherpas are taking the fun out of trials.

Alright guys and girls, here is the deal, I have been posting of a few Trials Flawless Sherpa posts. I have a pretty high KD, a good medal score, and have been flawless almost 50 times. This attracted lots of people to reply to me. I told them to all PM me and we could work out details, but after awhile I started getting hate messages from either "Elitists" or people who have tried and failed many times at Flawless. The messages said things like "You're a scrub for doing carries, everyone needs to earn the Lighthouse with people on skill levels as themselves. If they have a 0.6, they play with maybe 0.8s and 0.7s. Stop doing carries, it's ruining trials" Personally I think that everyone should have the chance to see the light of mercury at least once, no matter the skill level of the player. What do you guys think of trials carries? Discuss freely! EDIT - If anyone wants to see mercury send GraffitiDrifter a friend request on Xbox One. I have about 50 lighthouse visits.

  • Where's the third option to be neutral to the whole topic? I for one don't have a problem with people giving back to the community but if you're going to do it, don't ask for money in the process. That's where it approaches being pay-2-win, as people are essentially paying for people to help them win. That's where my first issue arises, as the fact that just because you are willing to fork money over to achieve something where does that leave the people that legitimately try and try again to make it and can't. Yet someone who clearly needs the help just throws their money at these Trials carriers and get pretty much a free pass. How are they gonna get better when they get backpacked? Yet people like me, who try to get better so that they can eventually personally earn that trip through their own effort are denied. Does that mean stoop to that level and pay someone to help me? Never in my life would anything ever justify spending money like that for something I can earn myself. And my only other issue is those who get carried but then think it's okay to walk around with an arrogance and ego like they're better then those who haven't been there. Other then that kudos to those who are selfless and do it without asking for anything in return. My two cents. :)
