DPS corner of Shame

[Saseal]

Stop it, why are we so similar?! xD
I totally forgot about that, but I can't think of a time when I actually used the melee LB on time xD
I guess it's just a typical ranged player thing, since neither BRDs nor Casters are usually allowed to touch it, and healers use it in very different situations^^°
---
...until I got crushed by a freefalling golem.
Not once, not twice but that actually happened 3 times in a row xD
I was really ashamed at the time^^°

Stop copying meeeee D: (j/k /soothe)
Yeah... I main WHM and Secondary BRD. x.x Both are kind of 'LB no touchy' except for the rare circumstance that shit hits the fan, healer(s) still alive + someone didn't use the LB3 already. I've not developed the habit to actually use LB on melee... x.x
Every now and then I'll actually be on the ball and be all, "Ohboyohboy! *Jams LB button* *Maniacal cackling ensues*"...

I've done that with the regular meteors. z.z 'hurrdurr I placeded meteor in gewd place. hurrhurr I did gewds-SPLAT *Fully aware of the mechanic to move away after the marker disappears, but stands there to be a smooshed kitty anyway*'
I've also stood in the Ravensbeak explosions more than once, like an idiot, too. >_> 'HUrrr tank needs healses *Takes two steps closer, out of safe zone, for no apparent reason \o/*' I usually survive - if I'm not immediately slapped by Lunar Dynamo while I'm in mid-cure... >.>;a

Lol! Ah the shame, especially when you get hit by a combination of those mechanics! Ah the first boss of WoD:

"Oh gawd, I have two stacks of the red debuff"
"Oh gawd, I have doom! RUNNING!"
"-gets stunned by hourglass slash" Q.Q Im gunna die now, aren't I?"

Every now and then I'll actually be on the ball and be all, "Ohboyohboy! *Jams LB button* *Maniacal cackling ensues*"...

THIS! Yes, so much so!
I play a healer main on another character with a side Ninja job and this character with solo dragoon. So the chance that I get to hit the LB button and fire off a Braver/Omnislash.... -happiness- I dunno what it is but excitement always crops when I do. Always, never fails no matter how many times I do it!

Well, it wasn't me but, poor MNK. I know how that feels dude :/

We were on one of the new duns... something "Al"...
We were doing fine for the most of it but this guy for some odd reason simply couldn't avoid any AoE... I think they were lagging terribly or were definitely not in their game, but imagine yourself dying to an obvious "hey-I-will-oh-ko-you with this 30 seconds casting skill" that you simply could never, for some odd reason, avoid (even if that meant 3 steps to the side)... he must have felt so much shame :|


On another note... Ultros fight, it was my first time Tanking it but also the first time I got issues with the DPS simply being unable to get the 8 imp stacks no matter what D:

We ended up beating this fight because I got a minimal positional lag spike that hit when Typhoon sent us all flying out the platform. Since the Stun takes about 1 more second to hit in, you can jump back on the platform and the fight continues :v

Yup, it was cheap but the DPS just couldnt do their part, shame on them :|

*Shameful Bump*

So yesterday I went with my friend to a High Roulette and got The Ancient City of Amdapor.
All went fine and all until we reached Diabolos.

We were going to do the doors because why not? and told my friend "will you handle the doors?" to which she said "yeah"
Confidently I went in and started doing my stuff. Once I get comfy on a fight I play zoomed in, and the moment the big explosion happened the doors never opened to pull us in... I thought something went wrong and she didn't get both doors for some reason...

Turned out that I was close to the other door we needed to open and I never noticed because I was playing zoomed in... she spent the next few hours judging me OTL

As a blm in t13, people stacked for the last megaflare right before gigaflare. I thought the megaflare had hit already and aetherial manip to stack with the group for gigaflare JUST as megaflare hits and died. That was pretty embarrassing.

*shameful bump*

So back on the first week, I got my first go at Bismark HM.

Battle begins and my camera is facing Bismark's direction. Then the add on the right side throws its line AoE my way about 10 seconds later and to avoid it I run in the oposite direction from Bismark. Of course I avoided it... by falling to the abyss OTL

Ever since then my camera on that fight faces sideways...

[Flipside101]

I use an MMO mouse with 12 side buttons, one of them is a mouse-hover for apocatastis; sometimes when I would hit the button for it and the mouse cursor shakes and it ends up on someone else. Yesterday I ran Expert roulette with a friend who's a sch, I tried to use it on the tank, instead it landed on him. His response: "WHY ON ME!?" Good thing the DRK didn't die.

[Karatecatgrl]

I was in t5 and I was busy killing the dreadnaught/hatches and she popped twisters and I elusive jumped onto the wall...

I was in hm titan and heart phase popped. One of the blm got goaled far out so I was going to elusive my way to them but no I flipped off the platform in front of the tank.... Since your technically in front of the boss.

I had just learned Foe Requiem and was at Whitebrim where that fate with all the tons of Ice Sprites popped. I'm thinking "Oh cool I now have a job skill that isn't just relevant when in a party since it's a big AOE debuff that will cause all these sprites to take even more damage from the casters in this fate, even if they aren't in a party with me."

If you can't guess what happened, I'd suggest trying it as soon as you have Bard & Foe Requiem unlocked just to see what a magical experience it is.

Ahh, the memories.... 1st time trying to solo spiritbond at Urth's Fount.... Fun times...
