Tell me Guardians ... Am I a jerk or did I get justice?
Just was running the weekly heroic with 2 others (they were together). I was running voidwalker and creating massive orbs with bad juju and obsidian mind to help my fireteam.
All going well until I get to the cliff at the Nexus. I stop on the cliff and begin to snipe the minotaurs and the other 2 guys push me off. I fall and die, they t-bag me and don't revive me right away.
They eventually revive me but then hide behind the pillar while I try to clear house. I die without the help. They t-bag me again.
I switch to sunsinger and gain my super. I then run right under the Nexus and die. I watch them as they try to start fighting from behind the pillar. Helpless, they both die. As he wipe counter hits 1 second, I resurrect run across the map to behind the pillar - and have a seat. I wait for both of them to depart.
1 sends me a nasty message - I responded that they shouldn't have been trolling in the weekly to start. I basically solo the boss as 2 others join and we finish up.
You be the judge! Am I a jerk or did I get justice?
*this is the first time ever I've had issues with randoms in the weekly heroic*
Edit 1: thanks for the support Guardians. Didn't expect this much discussion.
Edit 2: those saying I was camping of cheesing, thanks for your opinions. I think there's a difference between cheesing and strategical spots. Boss can still damage me and I have to fight a major Minotaur - to me that's not a cheese if I'm fighting a major, DPSing the boss and covering my fireteam. That's my opinion. But it's funny that people will say that's a cheese and it's terrible, then swing across the Crota bridge everyone lol
Edit 3: wow! I didn't expect this to be trending and to get this type of response! Thanks for the kind words Guardians. I know deep down that the overwhelming majority of this community is positive. I was just sharing a story from today and trying to participate in the community. Cheers!

If I'm fire team leader and someone I don't know does that to me with solar wind or some shit, I usually just boot them. One kid came close to it during VoG on hard when he solar winded me almost to my death on Confluxes/Oracles.
-
this is why matchmaking will never be a nightfall or a raid and im sorry you got put through that
-
Justice my friend,.. had a similar experience with some sparrows involved,.. lets just say trolling must be a substitute for skill ;)
-
Mommy always said, "two wrongs don't make a right".
-
Both. You should have revived dough[spoiler]or u become a troll and ill slap u[/spoiler]

I had that happen to me in the same strike while i wasngoing for the invective bounty, guy pushed me, left him and some other random to finish the boss themselves, the guy left after that but he other one stayed and interestingly had the same bounty going on xD
-
Always stay up top
-
You didnt do anything wrong my man. People like that dont deserve to be apart of the game.

Justice imo I was running a dragon strike this week, my only teammate was afk/leaching. I sent him a message saying that I wasn't going to do anymore for him and that I could wait all day until he did something. After realising that I wasn't going to buckle, he attempted to finish the strike while dying 10 to 15 times. Me and a third guy that joined just trolled him the rest of the way offering next to no help. He didn't like the taste of his own medicine. Right or wrong, it was totally wurf
-
Those guys were dicks.
-
You definitely got justice! I like to push friends off cliffs that way, but I only do it to friends. If you do it to randoms who've done nothing wrong to you then it just makes you an asshat. Hope those asshats learned their lesson.
-
Reminds me of that story about the guy who kicked that player who was doing nothing in PoE and expecting him and his buddy to carry him. True or not, I get a kick out of reading stories like that and this is no exception of people being morons cause they aren't willing to contribute.

There's a better spot on the right side, on top of the pillar, no major and no mobs to deal with, only splash damage from nexus. On topic however, they deserved it and I would've enjoyed every second after they left and started messaging

Otherwise if they don't want to play then don't. I do the same thing you did, even when they aren't together and it's just one. I don't care if they report me either. It shouldn't be designed so naively, people are terrible. Pretty much why I don't care so much for matchmaking in endgame activities. Sure enough it'll simplify group making, but it won't keep people from being insufferable.

That's where I choose to deal my damage from too, I find it a bit moronic to want to drop down there to be honest. I don't see choosing to deal damage from high ground as cheese, it's a sound tactic, used by military for years, he who holds the high ground generally wins. I commend you sir.
-
hahahaha justice all the way. I wouldn't even be mad if I was one of those guys. Touché my friend!
-
Lol....... they got what they deserved......

I'd say those D-bags got what they deserved. People like that shouldn't be allowed on the internet, period.

Funny u post this,cause me and my friend (who's fairly new) were in IB not too long ago and while playing,he gets tbagged by some 27 who thinks he's a legit gamer or whatever. My friend is 32 but there was some lag and that guy even got me with just 2 melee swings(Iono just didnt seem logical considering its IB). Anyways, I see it happen as a matter of fact,so I run up on him,beat his head in and take a couple quick knees over his ghost. Tbagging is just one of my hot switches but I'm sure we all know tbagging etiquette,give what you take. I never tbag until it's done to me and only to the dude who did it. But this bubble blowing dick tip,I just couldn't stand. Sometime into the game,respawn,turn the corner,it's him throwing a bubble apparently in panic and I just had to pop that sheit as soon as he threw it. Game ends with victory+clutch medal. Stay in matchmaking and next game same dudes on my team. While capturing C on burning shrine,this guy starts to melee me and starts humping my leg (attempt to tbag apparently) game goes on and I go on the killing spree of my life. Every nade I throw,super effective. 36 kills I think with K/d of 3.11. And then I get a message from this guy talkin bout "how my nuts taste in ur mouth?" I was like ,"is this guy foreal?" Then I get into it with this guy,losing myself to the thought that arguing with this guy is too easy. Oh man if only I could show the conversation. In the end he blocks me ,after he messaged me that boo in the first place. He was talking about how I was too dumb to realized I was being trolled,but by the time he said that,he was convincing me that he enjoys his orbs rested on top of his forehead. He calls me a B,a scrub,this and that and I can't help how easy it was to just turn it around on him. I'm just left thinking,"what just happened? Feels like it's always been there but there's a good percentile of people who are just unrelenting buttholes who feel if they put u down or hype themselves up that it'll make better what is clearly wrong." I dunno,just wanted to share and get thoughts on it.

While I don't like that strategy very much, you done good. This is a pretty good example of being able to dish it, but not being able to take it.
-
U served justice to them my comrad!
-
If it could have been done... the only thing to make this better is if you were able to tbag both of them before relaxing behind the pillar. Otherwise, good show guardian, keep it up.
-
You are a freaking legend

Justice has been served!
