The Caller in World of Warcraft have a hard time. They are still frequently kicked – even though they are fulfilling their role. Not everyone sees it that way.
Meanwhile, over 4 months have passed since the Caller received a new specialization in World of Warcraft Dragonflight. The Enhancer is quite a heavyweight and a welcome guest in most groups. Because even if the Enhancer itself does not have the highest numbers on the damage meter, it does amplify the group members, who then deliver significantly more performance.
However, this “innovation” has not quite reached all players even after nearly half a year.
You can see the trailer for the current patch here:
What about the Caller? Even now, Caller players who have dedicated themselves to the enhancement are reporting that they are still being kicked from groups. The reason is always that they are dealing too little damage and thus cannot keep up with the rest of the group.
MattLorien reports in the WoW subreddit that he was kicked from a group because he was doing “such low damage”. He can either “get upset or work on himself and be better next time”.
This is how the community reacts: With more than 2,300 upvotes, there is a lot of support for this experience, and others also share their own stories where they were kicked from the group or approached due to lack of damage.
Some also tell very similar stories, where the group leaders apparently have no idea about the game.
- “I did a 15 key after work yesterday and the tank went after me for it. I just don’t understand why people still don’t understand how [the Enhancer Caller] works.”
- “It’s kind of fascinating that people know enough about this game to install addons, but still are so dumb.”
- “Some people are just born dumb. I was reprimanded for being a bad resto shaman because I wouldn’t use totems. By the way, I was a monk.”
So if you want to complain about a Caller – first check if they are specialized in enhancement. And then ask yourself very precisely why your numbers are currently so much larger than usual.
