Think before you join someone's clear party.

Clear parties always make me laugh. It's like saying "let's farm this, but only do it once, and I haven't beat it before, but I expect everyone else to do perfectly."

It's a way to ask for a carry, though. "(Cloud Sephiroth): OOPS, I DIED BY ACCIDENT! you can do it, guys!!!" several minutes later, and maybe, some wipes after "<<Cloud Sephiroth earns the achievement In Another Bind I>>".

I've made plenty of clear groups for T9, however they failed horribly because we had unexperienced players joining in and killing the purpose of that group, when I clearly stated it was a "experienced only, people with clears and on farm status onry". Don't make me waste my time, if I realize you're new because you're messing up over and over, I have a foot for that butt. With that said, I wouldn't blame the game's design. There're content that is not designed for certain type of players, but still, they want to clear it. Either buy it or go make a learning/progression group on your own. Others mistake the difficutly of the content and think they can faceroll it. I'm not saying it's for super l33ts, but for several reasons, it's not for everyone.

Yeah, I know, you pay for a sub like everybody here... but it doesn't mean you HAVE to beat X content. If you can't, get better and try again. If you truly can't, maybe that content is not for you. I bet SE is not aiming for EVERYBODY to get through Coil but a majority of players. If they didn't make any adjustment to T5; 9 and 13, it's because they're pleased with the actual clear ratio.

I saw this a lot yesterday while trying to get my friend his first T10 clear. There where 5 of us who had cleared T13, my friend who was on TS so was executing mechanics 90% correctly, and 2 pug dps, one of which needed clear as well. Np all cool we get it to 5% first pull, but we later discovered that was only due in part because the pug NIN got super lucky and had to deal with NO mechanics. So few wipes later and we start teaching the guy about what to do for tethers and purple marker and he gets all defensive "I know what I'm doing unlike [your friend] with his i100 weapon" *rolls eyes*

About an hour later the PUG is getting so frustraited he can't execute mechanics he just starts suiciding into the lightning fields everytime he gets marked. Those of us that know T10 know that only makes things worse... lol
