Would have kicked after 1st pack.

Agreed! Would have kicked him before he finished his pull.

Yeah, I guess I need to put my foot down more often.... I tend to (begrudingly) roll with punches until things end/go their own ways (and then bitch about it later). Been playing since beta and I don't think I've ever hit a vote dismiss unless a person was D/Ced for a long amount of time and the spot was severely needed... >.> (and even then I felt bad for the person if they ever re-logged back in to find themselves outside, when the problem was out of their control). Then again, I don't think I've hit any parties with anyone that really did anything particularly cruel/inappropriate that didn't leave by themselves, somehow....

And so with no other options I used "it". I took my best SCH strength, and killed it.

I hate you dissipation. You are failsauce, and your taste is bitter, and even the thought that I may be acting unreasonable in my judgement of you frightens and alarms me.

./soothe
Not to sound mean or cruel, but that one line was both awesome and funny (in the ironic sense) at the same time o.o
I'm pretty sure I wouldn't be too thrilled to use dissipation, myself, if I ever 60 SCH (too many horrors, just getting it to 50... *Rocks in a corner*)

Final wave of A2S the only situation i found dissipation "useful" or possible
After blowing every CD of my dear faire
The only thing she could do for me is... To die and give US pour victory

But i think every SCH FEEL like you each time they have/want to use that skill

Without it, you feel sooo powerless...
Even if I do yell so much because my fairy is too dumb to fly out of aoe... *rolleyes*

Had a tank that wouldn't overpower and didn't use defiance til much later in cutter's cry. He was french so nothing I can say to him. One of the DPS left(also french). Another joined, and was also french lol. This DPS gave him verbal hell for the entire run, and I don't blame him. Yeah, all four of us were tanks. I didn't leave because I didn't want to bail on the DPS and frankly, no other healer would have put up with this tank, so I saw us through that mess.

Not sure if its a horror story but its the first time I ever abandoned a dungeon. Go into leveling queue and Temple of Qarn pops up. Since I'm pretty overgeared I'm helping with DPS and notice when we get to the first bee that no one is focusing it and I'm just DPSing it alone, so predictably last sting goes off. I start marking the bees then and still no one is attacking the bees so I say in chat that I'm marking the bees for priority to attack but before I can even explain about last sting response from a DPS: "I know what it is, we don't care what you want.". I just never experienced someone so unwilling to even try to listen or do mechanics that I just finished healing the pull and left right after that.

This kinda counts as a healing horror story. So I'm going with some friends in an unsynced LeviX party, and we can't get a healer, so I have scholar at 60 but have rarely used it, so I think it should be okay since it is unsynced.
Boy did I learn my lesson quick. I was the only healer at first and we actually cleared our first attempt even though I died near the end. Pony dropped but I passed because I died. And the next 3 or 4 subsequent attempts I just couldn't keep everyone alive ( didn't help that I didn't remember some of the mechanics for casters ). One of the other members switched to whm to help, and we were fine on healing after that, and we cleared a few more times...no ponies dropped, but I did get the pld shield and sword, the war axe, and drk sword.
On our final run everyone died but me and the two tanks at about 15%. We did it, and I figured RNGESUS owed us for that last fight...but no pony. As crazy as that was...I hope to try again tonight...but maybe not as healer.

Queued into Toto-Rak on my AST. The MRD was a little undergeared, if they were tanking more than two monsters they pretty much fell under 50% HP in the first 3 seconds. No big deal, I just went light on DPS (and I was regularly peeling hate anyway).

We got to the last boss with little fanfare. Then, on the final leg of the fight where the two adds spawn, I saw Blood For Blood pop up on the tank's buff bar and was so surprised I didn't react fast enough to heal them and they died. Swiftcast wasn't available - Protect and Cleric Stance were first on my cross class abilities - and I didn't manage to get them back up before the boss died, so they lost out on the boss kill exp. I feel kind of bad about that, and yet not...

You wouldn't have been able to Raise him anyways. Toto-rak caps at 27, and ASTs can't raise mid-combat until the trait at 28.

I think that's the CNJ version? Ascend gets traited at lvl 20, and I could definitely cast it in Toto-Rak, it was just a hardcast.

You're right, I just can't read.
