I am a team leader. Yeah, i know, i suck. But, over the last couple years i led a LOT of PUG TF/SF/Trials. Pre50 or regular 50. Not incarnate. I did it because my favorite way to “speed level” a new toon is to do every TF/SF/Trials in level order. (With the highest level in the range as the key) Those are my bona fides.
In my opinion the article is spot on. But, and this may be biased a lot, I advertise for speedy. Full disclosure. People like speed. I have joined a lot of content. Most folks go fast.
Then there is the crew i run with Friday and Sunday. Justice Superteamers are “Murder Hobos”. Everything cranked up and killing everyone. No matter how long it takes.
The points made about “balancing” controls hit home. How are they effective in the modern game?
