Things that make no sense

Deafening Tantara does, in actuality, make you mute.

Hecteyes, despite the lots of eyes and absence of ears, are sound-aggro only.

Mobs that intimidate themselves

3) Shinryu not being a member of the wyrm family. Seriously, the monster's name means "Lord Dragon".

Actually Shinryu would be The Wyrm God (as described by the missions). So, it would make sense that a God supersedes the dragon status.

In Jugner Forest, if a tiger finds an adventurer and a sheep fighting against one another, they will side with the sheep.

You have to accept a raise but have no choice to accept a D2/Teleport/Retrace.

That is so true. I remember like 10 years ago I had someone in party. Everytime he would come close to me I would just D2 him over and over. He was so pissed at me in the end... I really agree that teleports and d2 should give the recieving end the option to accept it and deny it.

So the point of this thread is for players to post things that make no sense in FFXI.

I'll start off with a few:

1) The Job Rune "Fencer" doesn't get the fencer job trait. Hardcore fail IMO. This really could have been avoided if SE just changed the name of the job.

Lots of RDM JSE is called "fencer's" this or that but they don't get fencer either.

Carbuncle is usually your friend as a Summoner and guide, but in Waking the Beast he pretty much decides killing you is the only way to save Full Moon Fountain and tries to kill you and is surprised and incredibly unapologetic when he fails to do so. I really have a problem trusting him now, those beady eyes are filled with death :<
