LFG really does have its moments that stick with you
I spent the better half of yesterday teaching the raid to a guy and his son (I’ll call them Big T and lil T) with an LFG team. We got to atheon after 3 hours then got walled. Spent 2 hours on atheon with the team and stayed determined and couldn’t do it. We split and there was 4 of us, Big T, lil T, and another guy determined to help them get their first raid clear, but I couldn’t find 2 more to help for some reason so they left thanked me for my help and I went and got another group finished in about 10 minutes then played trials for a lil bit. Then saw that Big T had put the effort in to get another group of another band of misfits and was teaching them all what I taught him to get through this raid and a guy left their fire team. I couldn’t leave my newfound buddy without a clear after all that work so I jumped in unprompted and gave them a refresher course. Then with the new group we got it done in 5 tries (lil T was out damaging most of the group and didn’t even have 1k 😂) and lil T got a Vex. Honestly more satisfying than if I would’ve got it. The whole first group was super respectful but big T and lil T made a friend last night and they were very grateful. When the kid put his vex on and thanked me it was pretty touching not gonna lie. Can’t wait to run the raid with them Tuesday tbh

My favorite LFG moment - I was teaching a group through Kings Fall and got up to the daughters phase. Wiped quite a few times after being really close. On the last try, we killed the second daughter at the exact same time it wiped us. I said "-blam!- THAT!" and self res'd. Thus saving the team and beating the encounter. Felt like such a hero. Good times.

This might sound cliché and dumb, but that's the power of games. Particularly games like Destiny. Some people just don't understand the value of moments like these, or see the connections they make for you. I met all of my current best friends on Halo: Reach Custom Games because of a random invite I received, coming up on 11 years ago. I met my first girlfriend through one of them and some of us lived together at University. As you've discovered, Sherpa-ing is pretty much always rewarding. The people are nicer and often very thankful that you're even trying. Teaching people also means that you know the team will use the method that you know works well, rather than debating over what strategy to use. Ultimately, it doesn't take much longer than a typical LFG Raid, if the team is only lacking in knowledge and the very best items. Much better than shaving off an hour and playing with people who get enraged over every tiny mistake or lapse in judgement.

4 通の返信If you get lfg’d into a group it is your responsibility to ask questions and to listen. I will not waste hours on one activity because one person is constant failing at something and they’re lying about knowing how to do it. I promise you 99% of people do not mind to teach lfg people just need to ask questions and speak up if they don’t know what to do

Should have seen my fireteam during rise of iron. We did the outbreak prime quest together without any online help. We did all the math and oh my god was the reward finally worth it. Our initial raid team of 6 were all LFG and we even came back to do the raid again numerous times. We also split in half as we were already 2 warlocks 2 hunters 2 titans which were the quest requirements. I had to switch to Xbox due to reasons relating to [REDACTED]. The synergy between us all was insane. No debates about the world, no hate for age, gender, religion or race. Just us and the game as it should be.

My no.1 lfg memory : Go into lfg for WOTM when it's still very very new all 6 people meeting for the first time, just overall a good energy and getting along. I decide I'm gonna grab the monitors as we go for fun and this is before everyone new how to get the last one. Raid goes decently, a little bit long as we are mostly chill not sweating and then someone speaks up in the room of the last monitor saying there's rumors that you use binary off of a couple monitors to reveal the final one. Well my god we were lucky because we just happened to have a man that claimed to be an expert in binary and after 30ish mins of working it out we open the cube and collect the final monitor. It was truly awesome because this was before everyone and their Nan had a YouTube guide on how to do it, so to get the quest for outbreak so early was amazing. Sad part tho I never ended up doing the whole quest lmao

1 返信Excretiousにより編集済み: 10/11/2021 2:32:18 PMGood story, was afraid of what I was gonna read. I pretty much live in LFG so I have seen the good and quite a bit of bad. For the most part the majority are people who just need to get the stuff done and dont have the like minded friends to do it with. The rest of them though, those are the guys that make it obvious as to why they play the game alone. *edit* Oh and it goes without saying, good on you for sticking through it and sounds like you made a Destiny friend for life
