I have to say, it's getting to me a little.
I've been playing for three years, very casually, and I'm not the most confident player, nor am I a pro in my class. But I'm not a terrible player. At least, I don't think I am. I try my hardest to learn mechanics and keep going through my rotation. I mess up sometimes, but I try and learn from it when I do.
So today I queued up for expert roulette, which I haven't done in a while as I wanted to get back into playing after having a break from the game. I got Anamnesis Anyder and things were going okay up until the second boss. I died twice, once that was just completely my fault, and then again right after, just as I raised into an aoe right as the boss died. The rest of the group ran onward, so I of course had to revive to the starting point. I tried to catch up as quickly as I could, and by the time I was nearly to them, a mob had respawned and I couldn't get past it alone being a dps without a good heal. Meanwhile, the tank asked for me to roll on the loot, which I hadn't done yet as I was dealing with the unexpected mob ^^; I apologised, explained what had happened, rolled on the loot and had to make my way to the mob again from the starting point.
I asked if they could maybe quickly help me get past the enemies without dying, as politely as I could, saying sorry again. Thankfully, they did. I thought that would be the end of it and then suddenly, I was kicked from the party. No explanation, no waiting, nothing. I understand that people want to run these dungeons quickly, and by asking for their help I was slowing them down. But otherwise, I've been in far worse runs before where I or other players have died twice and no one has been kicked.
Am I just being oversensitive here? Probably ^^; But how could I improve on my second time running the dugeon (first time without trusts too might I add) if I'm forced out? Must try harder not to die next time I suppose.
