One man band ftw, yeah?! xD

It must be the influence from Dynamics, because I've been finding myself soloing in KQs more now. LOL!

I'd rather help rather than solo in a Kingdom quest, the whole point of it is teamwork yet people that think you have no use don't even ask for your help. That's what I dislike. Even alittle help will help alot. For that KQ, I just didn't want to help them; I just did what I wanted to do and did not care for what they thought. It seemed that only one of them cared for what I was doing since he always told me to go back when the group was done in this area.

I was neglected a lot when I used my level 14 fighter in a KQ. It turned out I was the best fighter we had. I told the two clerics to heal me. One cleric ended up only healing themself and the other was healing a level 12 fighter who decided that they should help me tank. I kept tellng the cleric that was fighting and healing herself that because I was the tank that if I die twice it is over. So naturally I die. I them wait for the King Slime to get away then I revieve. I run away and wait for some healing. It doesn't come. I use 2 hp pots and a sp stone and get back to fighting. I tell the cleric to spam heal me because now I was the only fighter left. I get killed really quick. Even after using 10 hp pots. I defeated the king slime but the queen got me. I found it funny that everyone around the cleric that was fighting died (which happened to be our fighters) but all of the ones by the weaker cleric lived.

Try not to get too wrapped up about being practical to the KQ. You can actually do something to help that you don't realise, and that is, not ruin it for other people. It's not always about doing what's needed, but doing what's wanted to. From the sounds of it you weren't very helpful, but you weren't being an asshat either, and that counts for something in my books.

I do what is needed whether people like it or not. Some people actually have the nerve of accusing me for ksing them when I'm in their team and I snear kicked the monster so the won't die. It's a reason why 12 year olds need to go back to playing Runscape.

that did cross my mind when no one wanna invite me.. but i wasnt getting any exp with all Miss shots anyway HAHAH so i was in need of a party

1 fighter ended up inviting me (so obviously he was without a party for most of the game too) and we are a party of two that couldnt do any dmg HAHA

Unless you are a mage being a lonewolf sucks because if you are a fighter you are losing a lot of hp, a cleric doen't give enough damage, and an archer doesn't have a lot of hp. Mages are away from the area of damage most of the time and can dish out a LOT of continuous damage if spells are empowered correctly. So they buy 20 SP pots and go out and whoop butt on everything pretty much because a fighter will end up stoping the monster and let you destroy it.

Lonewolf never sucks. I get roughly the same experience simply because I did solo. You're gonna need a power scroll though, and generally things end up with you KSing other people, rather then tanking, so HP isn't of concern. I just can't be bothered finding a party to be honest. Hearing other people say "Party plzzz, ptplz, party me, party, pt" just makes me sick to my stomach, let alone hearing myself say something dopey like "anyone got spare invites?"

I have to agree with Dynanub there. I've solo'ed KQ as a cleric and it isn't bad at all. I don't usually get awesome exp besides the bonus at the end anyway, so I don't see my difference in my exp gain. I don't really care about the exp we get from mobs, actually. I just do kingdom quests for the exp bonus at the end (and prizes).

@Enrei: Soloing doesn't mean you don't help at all! You can still heal people and things. I guess you just have to get used to helping without being recognised for loved for it. I know you don't mean to say that you want everyone praising you or whatever, but things are just so busy in KQs, people barely realise what clerics do. They only take notice when we're not doing our jobs. xD

Tbh, if I feel like that... I just sit there and do nothing at all..

But doesn't happen much.
