Steps of Faith issues

I have tried to Q into this twice and both times I was spawned into an instance with only one-two other players. The spawn was under the boss so I was unable to leave or to abandon.

In both cases I would try to fight with a team of two-three players. Eventually players would join and them console quit to leave. This made the instance unbeatable. As a result, the only way to leave the instance was to also console quit.

This has happened to me twice now. I am sure this is not as intended.

The spawns need to be moved.

Alternatively, there is a bug on PSN right now where you cannot get back in game.

Yeap, you can't just wipe to restart either. I ran this with my fc on first day so from what you say tthis probably is not a good fight to que in progress For.

On a side note, from what ive read most ppl are gathering. The trash under the belly. We assigned canon duty and had everyone else pull trash to canons to optimize more canonfire cuz that's one slow dragon

10 times I've tried to beat it now looks like I wont be finishing the main stoy any time soon of course that sort of makes the expansion pointless as well its just frustrating to queue for ages only to get people leave before the inevitable wipe happens this game is supposed to be fun this trial isn't

this honestly is the worst fight I've seen in a MMO in a recent years, I may just wait till 3.0 it's impossible to do via duty finder

I get it literally every time I queue for Trial Roulette, and we clear it almost every time. Be a leader. Soon as you get in there, tell people their jobs, point out when people screw up and tell them how to fix it, and you'll win pretty easily. When nobody wants to be the chief and everyone wants to be an Indian, it goes south, fast.

Everytime I've gotten this dungeon and no one says much, or there is no one calling the shots, it's been a failure. But every time I've gone in where there had been a clear cut leader that makes sure everyone knows what to do (I've also led a few times) we've cleared. Point being is this fight requires communication. Also if there is someone that is leading this fight, it also gives everyone else some sense of hope and I've never seen someone bail out after a wipe. take charge and dish out roles and responsibilities if no one else is doing it and you'll clear it no problem.

It's pretty easy if people have responsibilities assigned and do them properly.

That's a pretty huge "if" though.

As long as people have a vague understanding of the tactics and someone steps up and calls the shots, it's all good, but you just can't approach it with the same overgeared faceroll mentality as some trials.

Got it yesterday in DR Trial... ppl refused my advice so I poped the Vote Abandon after 2 pulls >_>
But yea needs someone shout out "ADDS IN FRONT" "CANONS" "TOWER GET RDY" "SHOOT" "SNARES" else in DF no chance unless an atlest 6 man premade :/

I've done this twice in Trials Roulette, once as PLD and the other as WAR. (I liked it more as PLD but we cleared faster when I was WAR and felt squishier, both times I was getting adds to the middle)

Honestly once someone says "ok x and y you handle cannons and snares. All other DPS stay on vishap. Healers/others who aren't melee stay in front of/middle of the pack. Who got giant killer? Remember 1st one doesn't need snares, just hit it when his target is over the red circle. Others need both snares."

... it's been 1-2 pulls for me. @_@;

Thank you for this. I have only run this a handful of times but have yet to fail this duty in duty finder.

If I recall, Square said completing the post-2.0, including 2.55, is essentially required to get into Heavensward storyline. As this is a major event in the MSQ, no one can skip it, at least if they want to access 3.0 content when the expansion releases.
