Tales from Duty Finder: Some make you laugh, some make you cry. Let's vent.

had a wiping city run a week or two ago where alliance A had roughly...? 4 people, minimum, without job crystals. no one truly wanted to start anything so other alliances just kept shut while alliance a cracked jokes about cross classes being better

come final boss, alliance A is /completely/ dead. we ended up clearing, but i still cracked a joke about how the crystaless dpses should have cross classed a raise pfft

still though, a raid established as being refreshingly difficult and people are going in jobless for the heck of it hah

Well...

I do belive raise can't be used in battle without the trait...
So it wouldn't have helped.

Ever since people cottoned on to the knowledge that the Raid Finder is actually pretty good for Sophia Ex, my personal clear rate for it has plummeted to less than 50% in less than 24 hours.

It used to be all the time, God dammit

EDIT: Make that less than 30%...<_< We're officially in "you missed the boat if you haven't cleared it yet" territory methinks!

It's even worse if you're looking for your completion... put the time in during practice only to use raid finder for "completion" and end up with 2-4 players stating this is thier first time in the fight whatsoever but they watched half a video 3 days prior.

Atleast you have the option to filter out the non completions :c

Raid finder going for "completion" should be locked out until you've participated in Practice imo.

Sophia EX, queued through raid finder to farm. Ended up with two BRDs, MCH (me) and a BLM. We kept dying to enrage at 20~10% T^T

I'm still doing it, but a monster shout out goes to my party doing coils right now. I love you ALL. For staying letting me watch the mini movies and driving me thur all of coil tonight. On T-13 and I couldn't have done it without you. So odd that I was able to find understanding and awesome people willing to take a scrub like me into coils and actually stick it out to the end.. like the whole thing. I would name everyone who's in the group but rules and all. If I can I will cause the world needs to know how bloodly awesome you all are.

By two consecutive days, roulette trial gave me Nidhogg in progress. Well, yesterday lacking 1% HP and LB3 healer already used, 3 survivors (2 tank and 1 healer) managed to kill.
Today was without deaths. But I only survived because of my iLv (242).

No love, Ruda EX.

Tank doesn't want to tank (doesn't want to take aggro or use any skills) at Stone Vigil dungeon.

Tried to go behind the mobs in a small room just to get to the next room which was full of mobs in a small ass room too.
Had to kick him due to both DPS's having to tank and I can't heal everyone fast enough while I'm being attacked too.

Yesterday I queued for leveling roulette on my PLD to get it some more XP, I got Copperbell Mines. Was an ok run, even if the healer seemed a bit undergeared and often let me drop to very low hp and during some fights never healed me at all, but instead dps'ed without cleric stance? Still, no deaths so not really a big problem. Shortly afterwards I switched to my DRK to run some Alex, but as I went to click the "clear selections" button, I accidentally hit the queue button instead and tank queues being what they are it, of course, instantly popped. So in I went, to find myself in Copperbell Mines again! It was a fun run though, some of them were new but on point and jokes were made by all.

But seriously. Literally twice in a row? XD
