DPS corner of Shame

Welcome, my fellow DPS, to the DPS corner of Shame.

Have you ever, as a NIN, felt the need to Goad that one BRD or WAR in a speed run to support the AoEing and accidentally threw it in the WHM?

Have you ever clicked Jump right when an AoE pops under your feet leading to your head piercing through the floor as if you were Hildy's apprentice?

Have you ever Repelled Arrow the sh!t out of Titan's arse and realized it was so hard you fell out of bounds?

Come and share your derpy moments of shame as a DPS where YOU were that guy valiantly tanking the floor, because someone has to do that one dirty job, and know that...

You aren't alone.

I won't lie.... once in a blue moon I'll flare with transpose still far into CD and just sit there twiddling my thumbs and pretending to be busy until I have enough mana to cast a Blizz1. Don't ask me how it happens, but once in a while I derp heavily on my rotation and this is the result.

Had the misfortune of performing this Mother of All BLM Derps during the add phase of T13 and it made me want to crawl under a box and die.

Ninjas can goad a Warrior in speedruns? Next you're going to tell me melee are able to stun trash mobs.

Was in a T13 run. Was on the outer edge of the Arena, last phase of the fight, plotting my Earthshakes. Thought I'd be cool and Elusive Jump over two sets of Earthshakers, back to Bahamut Prime...

Messed up my Camera angle and jumped into the wall and died. Then one of the tanks messed up, healer used LB3 to res, I ressed and died in the wall, again. rofl.

matter of fact, i did kill myself with a misclicked repelling shot during titan ex this week. i got so embarrased by it that i actually have been taking it out of my hotbar whenever i go into this fight.

SMN derp - while running titan ex, and basically any other quick dodge aoe fight, if you Rouse/Spur your pet with "face target" turned on, you will spasm and face towards your pet (or sometimes, just backwards), making you run in the opposite direction and die.

This happens a lot too, with self buffs as well, esp if lagging, the client will think your true position is behind your current pos, and "face" towards "old you" and move backwards and die.

For this, and many other reasons, for the love of good turn off auto facing.

These are great. With all the people generally flexing their LEET muscles on this Forum, it's nice to see some humility. Keep 'em coming.

I was trying to show an FC member how to disrespect Levi as a MNK during his slams. Needless to say I ended up targeting the wrong one and not only dashed right into his tail for a kill, but also ended up falling off the boat.

That and elusive jump out of a fate, off a cliff, and to a well deserved death. I just laid there, accepting what I had did.

I repelled into a Landslide once.
My friends won't let me live it down.

I think my derpiest moment was when my static was just starting T10. We had a 1 bar LB at the beginning of Imdugud and my tank was like 'Aldo, do your pew-pew' So thinking I was casting LB but I accidentally hit Freeze.... lol that drew quite a laugh.
