An aegis on the ground? Y'mean the one on the BACK of the RG who'd just died, and since it was on his back while it was seeable it was not able to be picked up? And I had no bannerguard on my back, because I was carrying a crossbow. I was carrying an Arbalest with war bolts, my normal cade as since the last spawn I hadn't had chance to place it, and the flamberge with which I was slashing/defending. The Praven run? I had no problem with that map, and was speaking in chat with the others about why they had a problem with it. It's a fine map! You were the only person who seemed to have any negative response to my actions in either run, and I had no clue why at the time. In the Praven run, I simply failed to swap to my shield in time because, whether you noticed or not, I have around 400 ping in EU constantly. By the time I was swapping to it the Shield Maiden who went through our shielder had taken a swing at me too. And as for the Great Hall, not only do I despise leeching and a lack of contribution, the reason I had the crossbow was because at times we'd had more slashers than there was room for, so I resorted to adding in ranged damage on some waves. I don't see how you can speak for "nearly everyone in the server", especially as going from the responses I was seeing nobody except you was angry about anything going on in the Rag run, much less something specific to me. I was incredibly optimistic in those Rag runs about how well we could do, despite having no tomes and minimal capacity for healing, and not exactly top-notch cades to work with, and the last thing I would do is waste several waves of effort intentionally just to change maps. Similarly, in Great Hall, if I had the ability to shield and keep us all going, I would have. Because I was both enjoying playing in those Rag runs, and doing my best to help us get as far as possible. It's as simple as that
I see all these Swadian Hopes and Butchers, and I think 'I wish I had a frying pan'
