Helping a 301 kill Oryx - A positive story.

I helped a 301 beat HM Oryx today. The rest of the fireteam were above 310, so I was expecting a relatively painless run. We ran the 8 and 8 strat and I had the guy take plate 2. That way both myself, and the guardian on plate 3 could kill both our own knight [i]and[/i] his. The first 3 rounds went by smooth as butter. However, one of the 2 Titans on ogre duty got killed by the 3rd shade of Oryx. We managed to salvage the situation, eventually detonating the remaining 8 orbs and successfully dropping Oryx's health. The 301 cheered audibly. We could tell he was pretty excited. Just as Oryx was moving to the front, I realised that our low level friend hadn't really done anything. He didn't help kill his ogre. Didn't even try to snipe his knight. He barely touched the shade at all. He just sat on his plate, his mouth watering at the thought of that tasty loot.. So right before we stagger Oryx for the last time, sending the father of Croat floating off into oblivion, I reported him for being unhelpful and booted him from the fireteam. I figured he didn't really earn the rewards, and by letting him claim them, he'd just want to be carried again. There are already too many high level players that still know relatively little about the raid. I'd rather not add to the problem. As an experienced raider, I feel it is the duty of high level guardians to ensure that only deserving players reach our ranks. With great light comes great responsibility.

  • Who ever is saying that he's a douche for doing that literally needs to chill. I help people with KingsFall Normal/Hard week after week. After so many you start to think why am I wasting my precious time helping someone that doesn't want to learn the raid? Or someone who doesn't even try to help your teammates kill whatever target it is at the time? That's straight up people wanting to get carried & get their loot without giving 2 fudges. I love helping people. Keyword: Helping. Not Carrying! I don't mind helping those who put their effort to learn the raid mechanics & who try their all. For those who don't even want to learn the raid & just want to get carried stop wasting other people's time & don't raid, simple. It's a damn Raid. Requires working together & communication! Anyway, have a good day Guardians!
