12-12-2016, 02:33 AMbardabooUntil i get a way to measure my dps in a dungeon i only use quelling if I'm about to pull off tank. It's petty i know but sadly it's all i haveQuote:

Use it prior to your biggest bursts, or you're doing it wrong, and stop letting a single metric control how confident you are in your ability to play the game.Quote:

Popped into L60 as SCH and ended up with an in-prog Arboretum just after the second boss. Apparently the boss D/C'd and when they booted them the healer jetted as well. Figuring we probably won't get a tank for a while we go ahead and clear it. Mind you I'm the highest HP value at SCH at 16K with the DRG at 14K and the SMN at 10K so it was an interesting experience.
I'll just say we did end up clearing it with hate being quite a ping poing initially until the low level Titan can settle into the groove. Twas an interesting experience healing Titan as a SCH, especially when it loses 70% life when the boss decides to tank buster.
Good fun!
[Edit] Probably the best story for me today, the rest of the day has been either 0 tanks or basically no tank at all given how they played. -

Told the blm he'd be fine and not to worry about, no dps pulls threat off of me at 60 unless I allow them to!Quote:

This is why a parser is usefull.
Had a level 50 roulette while Im levelling my Bard. We had a ninja and a Ast, dont remember the class of the tank.
Anyway the runs goes very well, easy, no problem, i sing the songs that are needed, if i see healer dpsing i use foe, If i see tp down i use ... Well u understand... What i noticed ninja gets all the "dps increasing" card.. All the time ... No cards for me ... Never.. I guessed sure .. Ninja might be outdpsing ... Sure... We finish np. At the end i go and check my "crystal ball".
Surprise im Top dps with over 1/3 more than the ninja on the whole run... And this is with him getting the card all the time and me nothing...
Not blaming the Ast but at the moment Ast needs to decide who to gives its buffs and normally it is decided on CLASS than actually the player... Because noone can see what everyone is doing outside using a 3rd party program...
