I obviously know more about your class than you do, play how I tell you.

I always prioritize dps than tanks in pre 50 dungeons cuz any class with decent synced hp/gear can tank all mobs/ bosses.
If tanks start telling me how to play my job while not playing his i'll gladly disregard anything he says as i ran once with a tank who didn't use any defence/ hp buff skills till the last boss in tam.
But what got me was when he said can you not dps and use fluid aura.
I was like speechless, a tank telling me how to play yet he's not even playing his class right.
I trolled him a few times by using medica once and easily ripping hate lol.
On the last boss i let him die and made him rage on about how the group was going to wipe.
As if! He got pissed at the end when we beat it and said
" learn to play your job and in a party "
I was like lol naw just chill

Just save it. I think this is a troll. He's allowed to be short with people and get annoyed at advice but everyone else has to be nice and think of his feelings.

I find that when I do say something it just gets ignored most of the time. I tend to watch my party members closely during more relaxed fights to see what they're doing, ran into a DRG on Dzemael who was using the Thrust combo with barely any HT or otherwise the entire time. Even when I did speak up and say how they could use their class better, they never replied once. The thing that really irked me was that I had been using the LBs the whole way through, on the final boss I said leave them to me so it could be used efficiently. Gargoyle links himself to a crystal and goes invincible, and the DRG decided to use the LB right before that so a level 2 LB was completely wasted, I decided not to use it before him because I knew it was going to happen. They still sad nothing even after making such a grievous error.

You either give advice that could be coming from someone that knows what they're talking about and could come with some slight amount of attitude but still be legitimate advice, and they ignore it and say nothing, or give it to someone that tells you how they don't want to be told how to play even if it's inconveniencing others. I can't remember the last time I was leveling a class and someone told me how to better clip my abilities so I could more effectively perform a rotation, even when I was getting Monk to 50, only person who ever gave me any advice was this guy that's in my housing neighborhood. No one else all the way from level 1 to 50. Disregarding stuff I've read on here of course, because I haven't made any Monk related threads or even looked in most of the ones in the DPS section. Still seem to be doing well enough for where it's at, but some actual advice from someone would have been helpful for more than one person.

Saw a Monk with the Tidal Wave Patas in Titan HM a week or so ago, more than 5 pieces of High Allagan gear, figured they were experienced. They knew the fight and always obeyed getting people out of jails and dodging the mechanics, but when I asked them for advice they never said a word. Sucks in the end really but oh well.

I've played this game since 1.0 launch. Mostly as BLM. Still, if someone gives me advice I'll listen to it. Sometimes they do know better, and it improves my game. I'm glad they speak up.

My sentiments exactly about Shigaru and possibly you, not sure yet.

You post a thread on a game forum and expect everything to be roses?

Haven't you figured out that you could post that you think the senset is nice over "insert location" and four other people would say it sucked and ten others would list better ones.

I reply insults with insults, I reply arguments with arguments, I reply statements with statements, I reply jokes with jokes.

You can see where that was going, at least i hope you can.

Another player giving dragoons a bad rep, so hopefully next time you're playing like crap your party will just kick you immediately since you're not gonna take advice anyway.

It all depends on context. I'll admit to even calling some players retarded if they get to cap or close to it and not read their own abilities.

I've had warrior tank facepull 5 mobs in AV, flash once, and let an AOEing dps and healer die. Called him retarded for getting to 47 and not knowing to overpower (considering he only flashed once, he probably didn't know how threat worked either... as a lvl47+ warrior in AV. If anything, it's nothing short of a damn miracle he found his defiance button).

I've had a WHM in T2 spam medica ii in enrage mode. I need not say more (well I did say one thing; do you not read your own damn abilities?!).

I've had a WHM, and PLD with reaction times slower than someone playing a CTB final fantasy game in brayflox normal, allowing the DRG to die within the first minute of the 2nd boss fight. We wiped somehow. 2nd attempt, as i was forced to BRD kite the add since the PLD most likely had difficulty blinking and breathing at the same time irl, let alone attempt to tank 2 things at once, I had paralasys on me for the full 30 seconds. WHMs have esuna by around 18 iirc. We all were sitting around 50% HP because of blaze spikes (and me periodically getting para-stunned, and hit by the add), the WHM shuffled around doing nothing for at least 5 seconds. I was wondering when she was going to medica the entire time. Her next cast was a cure on the tank.

As a healer, I do nothing but watch players. I've leveled neither of those jobs to 50, yet I know the more obvious things that they should and shouldn't be doing.

Some people deserve to be called out.

Logic is hard, man.
