Warning Signs
You know it's going to be one of those PuG's when...
You accept the invite, say "hello," and not one of the other five members of the team says anything to acknowledge you.
You look at the mission location and it's three zones away from your present location.
You get to Perez Park and the mission door is in the ass-end of the zone, in the middle of the woods. About this time, the leader gives the traditional greeting of "Hurry up, come to mish."
You finally find the mission door, enter, and discover by checking info that at least half the team's members have "Recall Friend."
There's a blaster on the team who's off in another part of the map doing his own thing. When you ask why he's not up with the rest of the group, he reports that he is "Watching the AV."
There's another blaster on the team who likes to attack the mobs that you, the tanker, are not currently taunting. He has a controller buddy who helps him by always opening with group AoE, then casting pets that dance around and agro even more mobs.
You're the only tanker, but simple offers of strategy such as "Let me go into this next room first and taunt," consistently go unheeded.
The AV goes down only because it's the only thing left in the room and thus for just one minute the entire team of ADD affected heroes is able to focus all their efforts on a single goal.
