Communication, in any competative game, is key.

ALL Players should be communicating two things to their group led, when appropriate.

1) Enemy locations and strength. (ex. I see 5 SN coming from the east)

and

2) Status of the battle (Syloc out of the stam) or, as Tasorin said, "Tasorin, 2 non-guilded chasing me, baiting back to north gate."

Of course, don't scream crap over and over. And if someone has said it once, exactly how you said it, there's no need to say it again ... but EVERYONE should be on the look out. You can blame individual players all you want for not be consious, but it goes a long way when everyone's communicating to each other, and making sure everyone knows where the enemy is, how to respond, and what people's immediate objectives are. (You should micromanage, but don't over do it)

Bottom line - EVERYONE should be communicating important information, not just the group lead. That's why we have vent.
