    But, today I did get Ultima HM for roulette, which was pretty painful. I came in at ~40 minutes left on the clock and we managed to kill it after a bunch of wipes with 6 minutes left on the clock.

    So yesterday I was doing M4 as a sch and landed in with a group mostly made of an FC. I decided to use Eos due to being with another sch who was using Selene. For more healing output I tend to rouse Eos and use whispering dawn (the regen skill) and then if I need to I will use lustrate to quickly heal the tank. So in short you will not see a lot of cast bars above my head because its all instant and do not cost mp. This FC had an asshole dragoon that started pissing on me because I would use all of my aether stacks up. Not a big deal when you still have emergency tactics for quick heals or eos to enhance these heals with my cd only a few seconds away from being done. He literally tells me to learn to count on my fingers. One of the tanks died twice due not using proper cooldowns (I was in a skype call and they even said sorry when it happened) but over all we did not wipe and I believe I was healing to the best of my abilities by actually using eos to her maximum. When not messing with my fairy I was using my other curing skills. For the most part, the run went smooth however, this dragoon starts harassing me after the fight demanding why I didn't heal and why I had so much mp. The other healer was at half and I was only 2/3's down having just used aether flow. And I explain calmly that I can replenish mp and use skills that do not use any mp. To say the least he kept drilling into me acting as if the other healer was the only one that healed for he had watched my cast bar the entire fight which if I am messing with my fairy for a few moments, ya there wouldn't be a cast bar especially if followed up by either lustrate or indomitably.

    I don't get it. How am I in the wrong when the dungeon went smooth for the most part. Am I supposed to not use rouse and just have Eos on sic? Am I supposed to just rely on her weaker heals and poorly timed buffs while I use my own skills? Am I wrong here or was the dragoon right and I was supposed to heal hard so I have a constant cast bar which means ignoring my fairy. This is the first time I have been shitted on since I started to pay attention to my fairies and I thought the SCH was meant to use their fairy to help them seeing how our strongest heal is a whms weakest heal (not counting adlo with its barrier but it does heal less than psych). Is this a case of a dps thinking he knows my class or am I playing my class wrong?

    Good story: queue up trial roulette, Sephirot. New player bonus pops up.

    Nothing happens. Nobody speaks, so I figure I'll let them see the fight and fix things from there. And that proved totally unnecessary. One shot kill, nobody even died. Afterwards, both bards and the scholar informed us they were new :P

    Three new people executed that fight better than some people I've seen do extreme. Kudos to you fellows.

    What's with tanks trying to speedrun Stone Vigil normal lately? I've had several parties where it went just fine, but this one really tops them all.

    I was in this party just now, with a DRK, AST, NIN and me as MCH. DRK and AST were friends, more on that later.

    Somehow, me and the NIN missed the usual Protect cast (it was on the DRK and AST though). Oh, we're off to a great start, huh? Well, sit back and enjoy what comes next!


    Tank pulls first group, then pulls the second group, then pulls the entire next room! That means a bunch of Dragonflies, Drakes and Aevis (Aevi?), munching away at what soon will be what's left of the DRK. At this point I say that we can't handle large pulls, as we don't have good AoE. I mean, I can Spread Shot all day long, with my turret on Promote and using Invigorate, but that won't help against such freakingly huge groups (not to mention that the NIN can only use Katon, with Doton definitely out of the question since that unlocks at lvl45)! The NIN can't use positionals, because the tank thinks he's in ballet class or something, and spoke up about it as well. AST can't keep up, we wipe. On friggin' trash mobs!

    So we get back to the same room, tank decides to 'take it slow', which meant that we fought one group for a bit until everything had taken a bit of damage, then he proceeds to pull again! We manage to avoid a wipe, although barely (AST OOM and all). Suddenly, the tank speaks up, but not in english. It was spanish. However, the AST was defending the tank throughout this disaster (even calling the dps bad, well *sorry* we can't really do much more), in proper english. I was already pissed as hell at this point, and so was the NIN.

    We managed to clear the first boss with little issue.

    After we clear, the NIN speaks again about not being able to use positionals. I chime in again about the unneccesarily large pulls vs AoE damage. Tank again says something in spanish, including the word noobs. Ok, at this point I really wanted to kick the tank, he infuriated me to no end. I didn't get the chance to intiate a vote because...

    HE

    JUST

    KEPT

    PULLING!

    And so we wipe. Again. On trash mobs!

    Retry, we manage to kill them, but tanks keeps on pulling until just before the first set of Ice Sprites. He stops for a bit, I try to get a vote dismiss going. NIN says that tank queue's are crap, so she decides against it (which, frankly, I understand completely). AST obviously votes against. The NIN asks the tank yet again to stop moving around, to avoid f'ing up her positionals. He pulls the next group and actually seems to listen. We kill the mobs, and me and the NIN move on to the next set. Tank doesn't move, neither does the AST. Tank, for the first time in english, says: 'Can I move now?'

    At this point, I've had it. I said' F it, I'm taking the penalty' and left. Spent 30 mins in there, and we hadn't beaten the second boss yet. Add to that that I waited for over 30 mins to even get into the dungeon, that equals to over an hour of playtime wasted.

    I'm still pissed.

    Worst part is, I know that the tank and AST are on my server. I've seen both of them before.

    Such a contrast between player patience level I'm encountering in ARR and HW dungeons.

    First it was The Vault. We got to the last boss, had only 2 wipes, and someone vote-disbanded.

    Next, Bismarck. Once again only 2 wipes, and it was clearly only because one of our tanks was having severe lag issues with their PS3 and stated so. We were fine otherwise, but still vote disbanded.

    Last, Gubal Library. Second boss, this time only 1 wipe. I was new and didn't know about putting the boss between myself and the orb, vote kicked without a word. We did the first boss perfectly even without explanation.

    Luckily my 2nd groups were a lot more chill.

    I'm glad I'm only here for the scenery and story and don't plan on doing endgame/EX stuff, lol.

    Queue in progress into Aetherochemical as Scholar and we are down a tank at the start. We have the Summoner pull out Titan to tank and proceed to push through the mobs and bosses anyway. We reach the final boss and MAN was that a show to clear without the tank. Titan dies early on Bard and I die from busters and autos, summoner rez me with his last breath and I revive, heal up, manage to pull Eos out, rez Summoner, Summoner rez Bard, Bard mana song for mp and Titan is brought back, burn heals and deployments while keeping Titan up. We finally cleared the fight and without a tank involved. It was SO FUN!


    Edit: Here's a recording of the clear using Titan Egi as the Tank for last boss:

    A tale indeed!

    Last night some of my friends and I decided to help our other friend clear Alex Gordias so he could do Midas with us. G2 and G4 were great! Everything went smooth and everyone did their part. But, then there was G3.

    It starts off with the BLM running ahead and grabbing the trash mobs before our WHM could use protect. We let him die. Afterward he gracefully allowed the tanks to pull.

    Then we get to the boss. SCH stays in cleric's the entire fight and does little else other than cast Broil. No dots, no pet management, no emergency tactics, no healing or barriers, just broil. Well, our WHM runs out of MP and starts saying, "I'm out of MP, take off cleric's, help me keep people up, etc." No response, just broil. Well, WHM is under 500 MP, Shroud has been used up along with Bene and Tet, so he's got nothing and the tank dies. You'd think at this point the SCH would wise up and DO something, but no. Guess what he does? That's right, broil. The WHM is under 1k MP, so who gets the tank up? ME! I raise him as SMN. "Don't worry, -SCH's name-" I said, "I'll get the tank up since you are too lazy to do your job."

    By the grace and mercy of God we actually won the fight and we congratulated the scholar on his carry.

    While it didn't happen today, I did run into this questionable BLM in Saint Mocianne's Arboretum not too long ago when I queued up as MNK. We get our buffs at the start, we set off, and proceed to the first pull. Tank pulled quite a bit (but no problem, I love to AoE on MNK). During this first pull the BLM says something to me like "I better not catch you not using any AoE". Again, I love to AoE on MNK. Usually switching to Rockbreaker in my rotation at 3+ mobs, alongside Howling Fist and Elixir Field (obviously).

    I knew after reading what he said in party chat that this was going to be an interesting run. Anyway, we kill everything and the first boss goes smoothly. But after, the tank asked if it was cool to speedrun and pull everything up to the first honeycomb barrier. I was like "oh boy, this is going to be questionable". We wipe, and the BLM starts giving me crap. Despite popping IR and B4B, using Rockbreaker in my rotation, with Howling Fist and Elixir Field, it was not enough. BLM says I need to AoE, and I finally speak up and tell him "you mean that thing i've been doing this whole time". We try again and make it, but only because some mobs were killed the first time. Second boss goes smoothly as well.

    Now for the last big pull, we wipe yet again. More crap from the BLM. At this point I don't even care, this guy is a straight up clown. If fully buffed PB Rockbreaker spam, Howling Fist, and Elixir Field isn't enough for you, I don't know what is. We get the trash down next pull and proceed to the final boss. Now things are going smoothly yet again. But guess who screws up and dies? The BLM. Healer tosses him a res but he doesn't accept for some reason. Mere moments before the boss dies he just leaves. Not a word out of him before doing so.

    Now the funny things is, the tank knew I was using my AoE. I'd say he even sided with me a little. Sure, things would've gone better if he didn't pull so much, but he was cool and chill. Moving on, we all get a laugh at what we just witnessed. We chat a little then go our separate ways. I teleport to Idyllshire and run into the tank. We chat, and I make a new friend.

    Anyway, I don't know what the deal was with that BLM. One thing I do know is that if you're going to try to talk crap, at least know how to play the job of the person you're giving it to first.
