DPS Facepalms

Oh wait! i remember another one

i was with a relic + 1 paladin in amdapor as a bard. ripped hate off of him during the last boss fight, and promptly was rewarded with the boss diseasing me :D

So my static runs at some insane times for me resulting in them either waking me up or me not getting sleep before coil.

I decided once that sleep was lame and didn't sleep before coil, now turn 1 was easy enough, we don't have any issues with that one. We ran two bards for turn 2 because we've had problems with it before and stuff, now when sleepy silencing high voltages is one thing, but when someone in a linkshell tells me something and I just sit there and giggle like a little girl for ADS and I forget I have rot and run the other way than the rest of the stacked members... That was our last attempt for the night too.

I was also quite pissed after some loot drama from turn 4 and on our attempts at turn 5 I don't look where I'm standing, repelling shot almost right into the fire around the arena, smooth.

And lastly not my fault really, but Garuda EM we're doing fine and all, then my stupid chair breaks and my clothes get stuck so I had to sit on the floor for the rest of the attempt...

Doing an AOE attack right after the BLM sleeps a group of monsters.

In one word: JUMP

Jump while trying to run out of plumes (macro'd to True Trust)
Elusive jump...past the edge of Titan's battle area and off to the bottom
Spineshatter drive to try and jump out of plumes (not realizing at the time that it doesn't count the actual animation of my SSD to determine my actual location).
SSD or DFD to get in range, just as some kind of attack was about to pop that I shouldn't be in range of.

I did manage to Elusive Jump out of Dark Mist while in Haukke HM, which prompted the tank to note how stylish my move to get out of danger was :p

Choco'd into my first Odin FATE spawn only to dismount into a one shot AOE.

Turn 1
Me: Blood for Blood
Golem: Obliterate
Me: *dead*

... later that night, Turn 3
Me: Blood for Blood
Golem: Obliterate
Me: aw crap *dead*

SSD a gaol in Titan HM pre 2.2 landing in landslide.
Elusive jump out of a wotl and land in a cluster of 3

Dodging magitek bits lasers in ultima HM and running his conal

My most common mistake is using full thrust on cad then moving for impulse drive and not waiting on GCD so I'm mashing ID and not dodging the tail swipe I just forced on purpose.

My greatest achievement is on t2 dodging fire stream and not seeing that I took rot from the brd and wiping the group.

Repelling shot. Turn 5. Nuff said.

Repelling shot in Titan EX, doing an impressive backflip off the DPS Gaol right before Sumo Stomp.. and flying off the arena right underneath Titan's nose.

Double fail for using RS during Sumo Stomp in the first place AND using it in the wrong direction.

Egi pulling all mobs in ampador keep

Walking off the side of demon wall first time, after being explained side, middle, side middle. Not really knowing why so I hugged the side right to my death.

Getting a bit lost in Titan when running from plumes then decide half way while running out that I really should run the other way! change course then get stuck in the middle going o crap. Done that a couple of times XD

On garuda extreme I was tab targeting during the huge vortex phase I stopped on the spiny plume and immediately hit fester. My heart stopped as I thought I had just wiped my team....

Luckily there were no dots on the spiny plume so fester did 0 damage lol.

So on phase 5 titan on bombs i think it was, it was the 3 3 3 one and i was too far away from him so I jumped, but someone close to me got landslide, so I came down just in time to watch him landslide my face off the arena. facepalm

Is anyone else diss appointed you can't elusive jump off the arena in Titan ex? I was going for greatest distance assisted by a landslide, but stoped at the edge after jump then got pushed off.

And on subject elusive jumping with movement momentum and landslide; hitting the outer Arena barrier before the ground; priceless

The other night, I was trying Titan hard mode again. My first instinct when I see weights overlapping on me is to run backwards out of them.

You can imagine how that worked out when I was already at the edge of the platform.

Big fan of "When the boss gets low, use your LB." I'm Archer...

When I pop Raging Strikes--->Dots, and forget to put Garuda on Obey. So she uses Contagion on the Allagan Bomb, and not Vassago.

With a farming group, I used a LB3 on Titan in Hard Mode, found myself caught in a landslide while I muttered explicatives. Miraculously did not fall to my doom.

Did it the second time trying to wipe out the rest of his life force, butonly got him down to 1%, and promptly fell off the arena. Thankfully, the rest of the party killed him off.

As much as i hate to admit it, somehow i managed to miss the nails as BLM during L3 LB during ifrit HM.. yeah, not my proudest moment there..

Running into a landslide while trying to break someone out of a gaol -_-

Using Bane and hitting Spiny Plume, wiping the team. My bad.

Start of GarudaX as a drg, everyone hiding behind pillars after she jumped up. Did feather rain, landed and I ran straight out to attack her while forgetting about mistral song. Died instantly ;;

Broke the first link on Twin, everything is going smoothly...
I start zoning out because the fight is horribly boring and didn't notice the ping for conflag. My team and I all died in a blaze of glory.

Another one from last night... really late doing Garuda EX, been really good reading names a few times before attacking so I don't kill spiny. Almost there after a few screw ups, I die fair enough, get a raise suddenly spiny dies. None of us knows what happened, looked at the parsers when we got out, apparently I thought it was a good idea to DoT it up and get some crits in there too... I don't know how I did it...

You wouldn't believe the amount of time's I'd start to run back out again after feather rain thinking "well that's that attack done" only to snap back to reality and scurry back behind the pillar again for my life

Bane'ing the spiny in GEX is one I'm seeing a lot. I'm guilty of that one. >>; Or re-summoning Garuda and forgetting obey and Aerial Slash happens, done that one too. :3

Brd got blamed for killing spiny with FA. Shhh, wasn't me.

Got to 50 only a couple of days ago with my BLM, a friend taught me AoE rotations. After Flare I do stare at my mana bar for quite a lot before realizing that I need to transpose.

This, entirely. Was the exact reason i made a macro for BLM to transpose right after flare ends lol.

A while back when i was fighting Titan HM with my MNK to get my first relic ( :D ). During heart phase, people told me to LB the Titan, I did initiate the level 2 LB....only to realize that during the casting animation, there were about 3 plumes under me...in my head, i was like "omg!! let me move!!!!!!"

Last week a friend and I used duty finder to do Garuda HM for new relics. We had 3 summoners in the party. Throughout the entire fight, Chirada and Suprana would spawn and die without ever receiving a single summoner DoT. Not one.

How the hell is it possible to have so much derp in a single party???

^
And have you derped lately? Because that is what we find way more interesting here. ;)

Ah.. yes, the after LB character movement lock.
I've had that the first few times I did Titan, only to see a landslide appear under me and...
http://static4.wikia.nocookie.net/__...Bathtubgag.png

Made me learn really fast to time my LB. :)

Regularly downing Titan EX with perfect execution then getting knocked off by landslide on HM... twice :X

After doing Titan EX I feel like HM is harder lol. Somehow I can't dodge plumes as easily and all the timing is weird. Died more than once to those stupid circles on the ground :/

As for my facepalm, I was trying to trigger Caduceus' tail swipe while the bard was trying to get the slime* down to feed it. Ended up timing it horribly and killing them :I

dragon fire dived into wicked wheels...
using elusive jump when i should of jumped (i moved it far far away from my more important bindings)
and the classic 0 DoTs fester...

Attempting to buff myself and then accidentally hitting Sprint and leaving myself without any TP

Fire3 crits on the Spiney.

"Man, Suparna's going down fast. OH F-"

Saw a pugilist attacking solely from behind....because he wanted to crit.... As for me, using shoulder tackle on a node in turn 2 just to get blasted in the face with repelling cannons. Good job!

The worst is when people are angrily barking / spamming you to limit break, you finally say 'screw it' and just do it, and then bam... it happens exactly as you were expecting it to happen. --;

I used to use Ifrit-egi back in the CM grinds for philos.

Garuda ex Farm party.
Summoner uses limit break on first tornado phase and ONLY hits the spiny plume, wiping the party. It was derp.

Our Monk did that several times in a row in Coil this week. It was hilarious, especially because he used it a quarter second after the tank pulled, which meant it was basically 100% chance he would get nailed by the repelling cannons. No chance to get out in time at all.
