The greatest lolwut moments on a duty

[Mirakumi]

Got into a Tam-Tara run on my Thm for low level roulette. Tank was doing ready check every pull. lolwut?

Over a year ago I was doing Ifrit HM as SCH in the DF and every one besides myself and the pld must have been new, because by first rotation after the nails everyone was dead because they kept eating all of the aoe. This is back when you normally used caster LB3 to kill the nails. After trying to raise the other tank and healer a few times and having them die immediately afterward the pld and I built the LB3 back up and I used Pulse of Life. Within two rotations everyone was dead again. So we built LB3 up again, and just when it is built I spent a second too long trying to get a physick off, ate an eruption and died.

We cleared the second time though.

Went in copperbell (nm) on low level lancer with an FC mate on low level tank. The other DPS was an arcanist with his topaz carbunkle out (and wouldn't listen about summoning emerald, instead). Needless to say, there were a lot of issues caused by it when the topaz is fighting for aggro on everything (the slime boss was a nightmare -_- The arcanist trying to kill the slimes, the topaz agro-spinning everything (including bomb), the bomb being DoTed by who I think was the scholar and killed prematurely over and over again... All I could do was watch all this unfold on my FC mate from my spriggan spawn murder point...).

DFed Garuda EX on my bard. Newbie tank (OTing) in for the first time. One wipe because he didn't separate the sisters (prob didn't realize). MT proceeds to immediately primadonna and try to get the newbie tank kicked asap - "this tank is useless". Dude, the guy said he was new at the very beginning... or did your ego get in the way of your screen? Luckily, the party and I were more than willing to help the new guy out for future runs, so the idiot tank left instead. Newbie tank learns, tries harder/to our instructions. One healer proceeds to die to the first shriek, every time (just total tanking it to the face while everyone else is hiding), but continues to poke at the newbie tank about keeping the sisters apart (checked the tank's gear after a few wipes - was lower than the rest of us, so he was having aggro problems) after every wipe... And yet was dying to the very first mechanic in the fight.... every time. I Jackie Chan face'd my monitor just before we vote abandoned from another wipe.

I did Shiva EX through DF the other day and the paladin was using a weathered Burtgang with the Shiva sword glamoured over it. I was really confused about why someone would use an i100 weapon instead of the i115 one.

Copperbell HM: On the last boss the healer picks up each crystal and sets them down for the worm.

I have a similar incident at the boss we had a new healer we explained when the rocks had to be placed and that I would take care of it ( I explained it so that they would know for future runs). They proceed to pull all the rocks early I kept telling them to stop.. we wipe a few times. After a few wipes the healer said that maybe I should help them with the rocks and I explained again what I said before the first time -.- that the rocks need to be placed at certain times and that I was waiting for the right time to place them.

Had the exact opposite happen. Was queued SCH and told the SMN and DRG to just worry about DPSing because I would feed. SMN proceeds to plop rocks all over the place. Que wipe.

I guess there is always one sometimes and it doesn't matter the role
