[Sherpa Card] [PC] Createx - Desperately In Need Of A Sparrow Instructor
Hiya!
I'm Createx, and I'm terrible at driving a sparrow. I seriously am. I've cleared Scourge Of The Past 15+ times and I've managed to get to the end of the sparrow race exactly once. I also get lost in the Underbelly.
On the bright side, I'm also very patient and have been told that I have a calm and reassuring voice and can at least tell you how to get to the end of the sparrow encounter.
I value a good atmosphere above pretty much all else when teaching - we've all run the raid for the first time at some point, and we were all new to Destiny at one time. Screwing up is allowed and encouraged - that is how we learn. Sometimes, I will call for a wipe even when I personally could have saved us there (think Gauntlet plates), because you're here to learn the encounters, not to get completions.
We will wipe, and we might wipe a lot. You'll probably be the cause of one wipe or more, and that's fine! I know I was. That also means treating your fellow raiders with respect, even when they screw up and you know exactly what they did wrong and why they made a terrible mistake.
The most important thing is that you feel comfortable with the task you're assigned, and that you ask questions when you aren't. I'd rather explain one time too much than people not being clear on what they're supposed to do.
What I expect of people in my runs:
- Respect your fellow raiders - be patient, don't criticize others for making mistakes, don't try to do their job for them
- Respect your sherpa - ask any and all questions you have, but please don't try teaching the raid for me.
- Ask questions! Sometimes my explanation isn't perfect or you want to know what happens next. Ask away!
- Communicate - a mic is essential. You need to make callouts, and you need to listen to callouts. If you genuinely can't use voice comms, please contact me directly and we'll set up something especially for you :)
- Be patient - we'll wipe, and sometimes we'll get stuck for a while. Please make sure you're available for the time required in the Sherpa posts. We will often be somewhat faster, but we might need the full time.
- Please have a somewhat raid-ready character. You don't need all exotics and god-rolled legendaries, but you should have a good ad-clear weapon, a ranged special weapon you're comfortable with and some options for boss DPS. The loadouts suggested aren't mandatory.
What I offer
I'm very comfortable on Garden Of Salvation, Crown Of Sorrows, Scourge Of The Past and Last Wish. I have no problem teaching Leviathan (incl. Prestige), though we will get lost at least once. The raid lairs (Spire Of Stars and Eater Of Worlds) I can do on request, mostly because I haven't done them that much myself. My favourite raid to teach is probably Crown, because everybody has to do everything, there is nobody on adclear duty.
I'm usually available Tuesdays through Fridays after 19.00 CET, weekends I'm often not available.
