Ok, a simple update would be nice to The Underworld currently (forgetting the UWSC and farming etc etc).

Whenever a reaper dies, it would be nice to know which repear died. Yes, we can flick through the team members to quickly fathom out which area failed but when leaders exit faster than people can check, it is annoying.

Looked at the suggestions made, could not find this - if it has been made before (which it probably has) please merge/delete this thread accordingly.

But seriously, why are you even doing UWSC with pugs? Do something really worth your time. You have a guild don't you? Go group with them. :P

Needs a GvG guild..

For as what I understand is, that you do all the quests apart from eachother.. Because if you team it, you know what u've all done.. And since GuildWars is meant to play together:

A simple solution could be to notify people in the white text that appears on screen to inform you of failure. Something like:

The Reaper of the Chaos Planes has perished.
Your party is defeated.

I would love for that to happen. I mean even if you are know to be a pro at UWSC you can screw up every now and then. But atleast this would make it easier to see which area failed. I mean I hate finishing my quest and then BAM! you get kicked out of underworld. Would provide some clarity over what happens and sort out the people who won't own up for thier mistakes.

This would be a nice thing to have. Just have it pop up at the end. Unfortunately, this is so small of an update that it is very unlikely to be implemented. HEY YING! =D what is up buddy?! long time, not talkie talkie. =( Just throw me a pm if you ever need a chamber sin for UWSC ;-)

Oh also, it would be nice to add in also which area failed thier quest such as vale or pits. Waste is too easy to see if the person failed because of the +2% moral.

There was a time when UW and FOW clear was a team effort as they should be. Now, its a group farm spot; hence, the suggestion. Only thing it does is to identify which Sin failed so you can trashtalk and kick him/her out of the team. It does not improve the overall quality of the game. I would approve any suggestion that brings back team aspect of the game rather than improving farming.

I can see how this information could be useful in guild teams to see if there is a weak spot that needs to be worked on. However, in PUG groups I can see this leading to more usless hate spamming of TOA local chats where players who failed are bashed endlessly so they cannot join other groups. Even the most able and experienced UWSC farmer could hit a lag spike and fail, to end up being blamed and ridiculed before everyone to the annoyance of anyone in TOA. But that could just be me thinking the worst of a situation because, as we all know, that would never happen with the loving and understanding community.

Agree. Nice to know the reasons. It will be useful for Non-UWSC as well such as UW first timers to know what and where they did wrong. It most cases it is obvious but why not to improve things?

Its not really necessary cause team members can say what gone wrong

True, and let me tell you that it does not matter how experienced you are, there will be a time when everything goes wrong for you. For whatever reason.

For me, it happened one time because of SpyBot. It started scanning while I was playing, and you all know what happens when your antivirus decides to scan your computer in the middle of a run.

Okay, let me clear up something here - I am not concerned with Speed Clears or the like. Yes I do them before you flame me. It is not to improve farming (way to go in extrapolating that from my OP). But when you take a team in that is different to the UWSC format and the likes, then it can be annoying to say the least. Especially if a few people that are coming with you are unknown PuPs or have never been in. It should be imformative as to where you failed.

As for the community giving a s**t, that went out of the window ages ago and I stopped caring if someone thinks I am a "useless noob who should go and kill myself for being such a poor player" and that I'm on a blacklist now. We all have a bad day, technology or human error (oh sorry, I meant LAG), cannot be helped.

I was just trying to make things a little clearer as to why teams were getting booted from UW.

So Admins, close this thread - I don't give a flying s**t anymore either.

Wow, Remember its just a game. Something tells me that you don't accept rejection well. lol.

As far as you getting mad because of the response, then why did you posted that question/suggestion?.
You say that you are not concerned with UWSC but when you tried other kind of team, you usually work in "Teams" so at least some of your teammates would know which reaper died.

Please don't post anymore if you can't handle opinions different than your own.

Moderator please close tread.
