A Thread of General Goodness

Let's get away from the complaining a bit shall we, and talk about what happened in game that was just a random act of awesome.

Let me begin.

Today while running Puppet's Bunker, I was 1 of 2 mages. Absolutely no magic gear dropped throughout until the very end when the body piece dropped, and...I rolled a 1. I didn't say anything, just sat there waiting for everything to fall since I rolled high on a card and an orchestration roll. But then the other mage, who was wearing crystarium gear (I was in deepshadow) ran up to me /poke /handover and the body piece dropped into my inventory. He then did a /bow and left the instance.

People are amazing sometimes. What's your tale of general goodness?

Sometimes alliance A doesn't shoot us with the laser beam.

Today my leveling roulette party tolerated a healer who went in to a level 45 leveling dungeon (dzemael w/e) with ilvl 1 glamour gear, level 10 accessories, and no belt.

We only wiped like 3 times and he only healed for like 200 per benefic 2.

When a healer item dropped this was the response we got from him:

But our whole team still tolerated him!

Edit: Great community btw!

Today I qued into normal roullete, got E6N and we seemed to have a ton of newbie, the returner and the mentor kept giving advice and after 30 or so minutes we were able to clear it. No one left and we all kept at it and pushed till the end.
Shout out to the cotank who killed it off at 1% after I died.

I know this just happened to you and this one dungeon put you on the franticly typing warpath, but not really in the spirit of things. Take it to tales of duty finder dude.

You already complained about this in your own thread, do you have to go to other threads to repeat yourself?

Another act of awesome! Another forum user remembered one of my threads I made yesterday!

A minor thing but still something that makes me smile:

Praetorium in roulette and everyone gossiping and making comments during the unskippable cutscenes.

I try everytime I do that to try and lively things up. Either with jokes or starting an actual convo. When it goes well praet becomes awesome.

As for my good thing. A friend of mine came back after quiting and it's been fun with him.

Every so often I see people compliment one another on their glams in instances, and it's something that always makes me happy to see.

Nothing specific at all but as I've been levelling a new character I've been seeing a lot of positive in the dungeons and roulettes I've been doing. Lots of players asking about pull size at the start of a run and being patient when there are deaths or wipes. Lots of players willing to stop and explain mechanics when they come up. Also seeing a lot of Sprouts (whether "true" or not) and a lot of first time clears of the content I've been doing.

Also been running a lot of Heroes Gauntlet on my main for fun and seeing most players clearly knowing what they are doing.

It's been really good times in game recently.

Leveling an alt for the first time instead of sitting in cities doing nothing on my main, I've been pleasantly surprised by the general camaraderie shared by new players. People helping each other out during overworld class quests, not throwing tantrums when I don't remember the optimal clear route for Wanderer's Palace.

... and, of course, the revamp to ARR, which trims off most of the annoying fetch quests that send you halfway across the world and back. Really makes ya realize how far this game's design has come in 7 years.
