So I just got kicked out of my Duty Roulette

A good tank always makes sure everyone is over the line, especially the healer.... Don't get too down about it, they are terribad.
They also prob had to wait a good bit on a new healer instead of just doing the fight with you the 2nd time.


Chest time = 20 seconds tops?

Wipe to boss and restart = 2-4 min?

The look on their faces when they realized they had no healer = priceless

Thanks for the feedback everyone. I think I will just wait until everyone leaves and grab the loot for myself <_< I hadn't realized I could go back and grab the loot after the dungeon is cleared o.o

You certainly can. I'm not sure about backtracking past the second Bray boss though. Never tried to go backwards through that tunnel.

You can't go backwards through the tunnel, but you can use /return to go to the beginning of the dungeon. Or if a monster is still alive, you can let it kill you so you don't waste the /return.

using return in dungeons takes you to the very beginning it's how you get all the treasures in places like stone vigil or toto rak where you fall into the arena with the boss.

Well I would like to say everyone in OPs party are bad players, you never never never ever go in a boss fight without the healer. I as DPS will sit outside the zone until I see the healer is in the area because I ran into tanks that seem like they werent paying attention and I wasnt going to die for their lack of paying attention.

Also the group was at fault, you don't ever speedrun in a Duty Roulette or Duty Finder dungeon. You always ask permission to speed run and make sure its ok with everyone in the random group, otherwise always go into it expecting to run the whole dungeon.

Next time go back for that treasure after everyone else has left. So you are guaranteed to get it and there's no drama.

I always poke fun at people who are on the edge of burning out.
Like the atma farmers... they were a fun sort. Such a short fuse...

Sure I don't have my animus yet... but least I still got something to do.

What are you guys/gals talking about? Brayflox is like watching tv sometimes and you're just grabbing your popcorn. I love the time I was on my DRG and after the 2nd boss was downed the BLM smarted off to me saying "thanks for your help on the adds.. Which was none" when I nicely stated that his ranged DPS easily handled adds while my melee stayed near the boss and didn't walk through aoe to get them thus giving our healer more time to focus on one less player. Needless to say, I got a prompt "w/e" and that was that. I got a commends after the dungeon I'm sure was from the healer.

Let 'em be angry people. Don't let it bother you. Move on and continue to be a decent person spite them all.

It's people like these that try to -force- speed runs through DF that make me wish SE would put in place measures to make speed running impossible.

You actually kill the adds in the 2nd boss? Wow. Everyone I know just burns the boss past them.

I like to burn everything.

But really, some people don't consider ignoring them, or they, too, just want to kill everything. If the extra time it takes is a big issue, which it is for those who have the need to speed run everything, it should be made clear what the intended strategy is. It takes all of 2 seconds to type "ignore adds" to get everyone on the same page. Y'know, rather than just assume everyone does it the same way. If no one says anything, I'll go about doing things as I see fit to, which may involve taking out adds.

In order for vote kick to pass in a four person party, only one player must click yes for the vote kick to pass.

I would like to point out the irony in what the tank did. By vote kicking you for slowing the party down effectively stopped their progression all together until a replacement is found. A good way to anger at least one of the remaining two. Perhaps the tank got vote kicked themselves after you left. Or more likely everyone ended up just abandoning the duty.

There's nothing you can do, but take comfort in the fact that your not the only person to suffer to the irrational behavior this tank possesses. Acting impulsively without considering the consequences to themselves or others, it's good way to earn a bad reputation. These types of players are always their own worst enemy.

Anyone that uses the Duty finder and expects a speed run is an idiot.

I've been doing this since WP.
It has made me more seals and gil than I can count. Even the "useless" x-potion/ether ones make me gil. I'm selling them because I have 20+ of them anyway.

How hard is it to just make sure your healer is in the damn room before pulling the boss?

We really need a separation section of the forums where people can vent about their experiences, because it seems this kind of person is incapable of just reporting and moving on. Vote kick gets abused, it happens, and although you might think yours is a special case that the entire community will just DIE if they don't hear about. It isn't.

I don't see why we need these rants clogging up the main page all of the time.

Best way to fix it would be if every opened chest give a tome bonus after defeating the next boss.
Something like during 1.0, where opening all chests was a condition to get one of the possible 5 chests after defeating the endboss.

While I don't agree with your condescending nature, I do agree that this sort of thing pops up all the time. However, thinking about it, this IS General Discussion after all, you can talk about pretty much anything.

I guess if you don't care to see this topic, it would be best to just ignore it and move on.

In other words, you agree with the basis of what I am saying, however you have just realised you posted a vent thread of your own just now:

http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...tte-Experience

...and so you have come to realise it's 'ok' to do so.

My rule is always follow the tank. I didn't know you could go back and loot once you cleared the place. Assuming we actually cleared all the mobs, this is a great idea.
