I'm never dropping Rivers of Blood to another Executor again. I don't fucking care if katanas are their preferred weapon, every time I try to be a good team member, and drop it to them it bites me in the ass. I'm teamed with a Raider, and an Executor. I get RoB early, at like level 3 so I slide it over to the Executor. He proceeds to not use it the entire round, and then he, and Raider both go down about 20 times against ED Gladius. Gee, here I am playing dedicated fucking reviver as usual, wouldn't it be great if I had a weapon that's really good at reviving like RoB...
Never again. I don't care anymore, I find it, I'm keeping it because Executor mains are notoriously terrible anyway so even if you hand them a god sword, they don't survive long enough to use it, and I've never seen a single one use it to revive anyone. That's always the internal conflict for me when I find a weapon I like, that I'm good with, that another character on my team is technically capable of being more powerful with, but... can they survive long enough to use it effectively? Most of the time, the answer is no. The best thing to do is keep shit for myself. But my good nature wants me to be a better team player. It's the same thing with taking lead in pathing. When no body is pinging, I just go, I just run for whatever is closest. I don't ping because I don't want people to think they have to follow me. If you want to, great, if not, I'll see you at the end of the day. But I've noticed that when I take lead, and everyone is following me, I can consistently get us to max level. So I'm good at leading, I should feel comfortable doing it. But I don't like being pushy. That's part of the reason I don't ping because if someone wants to stop somewhere, I'm open to that. You wanna get a stone or hit an evergaol, I'll help you. You wanna go left instead of right in city, cool, I'll meet you at Astel. Honestly, the team split in city is good because then you can clear every field boss on both sides. I can handle one side on my own if my idiot teammates can stick together, and keep each other alive. There are only two field bosses on the left so if they can handle that, I'll handle the four on the right, we'll get all the rewards, more XP, and meet with enough time to take down Astel. But it's hard to communicate this with... almost no communication. People have this notion that Duchess is a squishy, fragile character who needs to be protected. Yeah, me, not so much, I'm fine on my own. But again, I can't really communicate that. I find myself in Fallout now, when I'm in danger in particular, trying to use my Nightreign invisibility xD And being like, oh yeah, doesn't work here...
