So, it has come to my attention that people are inviting players to their groups and then failing to time said key. So, the question is - how do one avoid this? Well, it is easy. First of all, never join someone else’s key. I say this from experience, as I’m currently rank 4 S2 Brewmaster monk on a highly populated realm - and people have whispered me why they are not getting invited to my group. The answer is, your parses. I do not look at your rio.
Anyways, if you truly want to push keys, the best tip is that you push your own key.
When inviting people, you can check them up using warcraftlogs. In terms of parses for this season, you want it to be purple - and if not, do not consider inviting that player. Blue parses is mid for mythic, and this means that they are doing things wrong; which, in turn, means that they will do things wrong in your key as well. And the last thing you want is a liability. You see, people have this misconception that just because they’ve done a +13 once, last season, or because their RIO is “decent,” they are automatically qualified to be in your group. This is false. And I have seen this, and therefore I can speak from experience.
Let’s be clear: parses do not lie. They tell you exactly what kind of player you’re dealing with. A purple or higher parse means someone actually understands their class, their rotation, and their role. A blue parse? That’s someone who thinks they know, but doesn’t. In terms of raiding blue parses are ok for lower item levels. Also - although I like Brewmasters; everyone cant play Brewmaster. Therefore, make sure to actually look the tank up before inviting. Although I can say that brews feel different this season, they are stronger - better and damage control is much better. However, this requires great attention, which I have - which others do not.
Also, consider not inviting Warlock, Demon Hunters or Outlaw Rogue at lower keys, trust me. If you do though, observe, see and reflect and then come back to this thread and notice that I was right. Outlaw Rogue is great for higher keys though when it comes to aoe damage, same with DH. Destruction Warlock have great ST damage: Just dont invite them at lower keys.
Also, make sure to check their achievements. Last season there was a [Let me Solo him] achievement from soloing Zekvir. This means that the player fully knows the game, their class, other MMO and any other mechanics that might come in the future
