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

Which now raises the question on why Stone II and not III.

Ehm..maybe they did a low level dungeon before, and moved Stone II to the regular "single target attack spell" slot where Stone III is on level 60 for ease of use? :x
And throughout the entire run did not notice that they had forgotten to move it back?

Just trying to find explanations..xD

Was doing Sophia extreme with some fc members when we noticed the monk we partied with in the raid finder was doing really poor damage and we hit enrage at one stage aside from the one wipe we had, we asked the monk what was wrong and he said it's "still new content" as an excuse for performing poorly, despite having cleared the content, mechanically he was doing fine so I couldn't understand what was going wrong with their damage.

We finally beat Sophia on the third attempt and lo and behold, the fists drop and the monk wins them.


Tl;Dr do bad, get drops.

Par for the course, really. My fc mate who knows the fight inside and out did poorly one run, fell off several times as tank. Wins the bird.

Stone III should have been a trait added to Stone II so you don't have to deal with having two entirely separate spells to achieve the same purpose with the only difference being level. ;_;

Just wanted to get this off my chest.

Just got out of a very infuriating Xelp run. My net started deciding to lag me in the run, so I couldn't dodge mechanics at all. Pretty damn infuriating, because I was dying repeatly at 2nd boss. Apologized and told party I was lagging. No one responded, so I thought all was ok until we finished the dungeon and the tank snarked "monk you suck" and quickly left. In my defense, I didn't die once after completing the 2nd boss and I can understand if the party was frustrated but oh man.... telling others they suck because they lag? Don't they think we already don't feel guilty about it?

"You are aware that melee LB3 is the more effective LB, right BRD?"

Uhm, okay. Yes, I am well aware. But we're at the headstone, and the boss is dead, and has been for a good few minutes now. I'm just like "Geez, calm down bruh" just trying to brush it off because it's really not that big of a deal

I agree it is not much of a big deal, but to be honest, your response escalates the situation more so than it does brush it off. A response like, "Yeah, I just love the BRD animation and it was about dead anyway xD" would have been better. "Geez, calm down bruh" is a bit condescending, and turns a simple question into a conflict.

97 roll on Sophic Lanner.
Someone rolled 98. I lost my mind.

Well... coulda been the type a person that has every goddamn status effect going through their chat window. So maybe they didnt see you say you were lagging. Does not however make saying that you suck ok.

Same thing happened to my boyfriend >< he rolled a 98 on the Nidhogg Dark Lanner and the BRD who was dead almost all of last phase rolled 99...of course.

I also lost Sophic Lanner roll twice even though I rolled high: once with a 93 got beat by a 99 then 94 and got beat by a 97. I got lucky and rolled 94 again on the next one I saw and finally won it but yeah tough on the nerves.
