Well, its just shows that we have big problem with scaling. As if having to fix Endsinger within the same expansion so new players can see the story stuff wasn't enough.

Sure the scales are w/e for us that got to do it more than once but first time players will never see this.

Running old content via roulettes is nothing but disappointment, especially seeing trust related reworks.

Hence the fact that I don't understand people who go and do a roulette with strangers, then act surprised because it doesn't go exactly at the pace they were expecting. There's no disrespect for the player's time here, just a lack of common sense about the type of content involved.

I once tanked the Lunar Subterrane and I did use sprint and ran through the packs while pulling with my ranged to get to the wall as fast as possible and my healer was so impatient that they *rescued* me to the second pack even though I was just 3 steps away because apparently they couldn't wait for those 2.5 seconds...

I've actually seen the scales once, it was fairly recently,

we uh, we wiped to it and skipped it on the second attempt

I remember watching a video of an incomplete group clearing syrcus at minimum ilvl and even they couldn't see the platforms mechanic before he died.

Thanks. I've been wondering if there is this hidden rule I've missed all these years.

I think he was. The correct emote to use was sweep.

A while ago I did trial roulette as a dragoon. We got Shinryu.

First pull, 6/8 of the party die to the first tidal wave. No big deal, maybe some people were new or hadn't run it in a while. Some of us explain the mechanic in chat and we pull again.

6/8 of the party dies again on the second pull.

On the third pull, we did clear it. But it was rough. We almost wiped in the middle of phase 2, I think we had ot use the healer lb 3 to salvage thigns. Then at the very end it started going south again. He did the swoop where only two corners are safe and everyone but me was knocked off and I finished the fight with an lb 1 or 2 (was probably a 1) before shinryu went back into his normal attack patterns and could kill me. While I was the last one standing though I have to give props to the healers for keeping the raid going up to that point because there were a lot of deaths and resses going out.

Wait it's not the squats emote?

In heavensward I was kicked from the antitower dungeon for dpsing as a whitemage. Nobody died or anything on that first pull, they were very vocal about me needed to heal instead of dps. I still think about that from time to time compared to how things are now.
