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

Ran Gubal normal today, had an i240 PLD that only used FoF and Sheltron for cooldowns. And when he did use Sheltron it was against magic enemies.

As a PLD main it infuriated me.

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

I felt somewhat guilty winning mine. One tank rolled 95, I rolled 99. Only somewhat, though. It was my 33rd kill and glad to finally have it.

Ohh, guilty as charged on the Sheltron on magic damage thing. In my defense, I only run PLD on dungeons so if I can't tell if an attack is magic or not I'll blow it anyway just in case >_>

Better to use Sheltron too often than never. I tend to hit it as force of habit at times. And sometimes it can work as a surprise. That said: yeah, they should have been using other cooldowns.

A6N... I'm healer... we get to final boss, other healer decided to go on a netflix and chill... So I'm stuck... solohealing, as an i226 AST. If the SMN that was ressing in that duty sees this, I owe you a drink! We had mechanics being failed left and right, but we somehow did it thanks to SMN's ressing, and me focusing on healing. I won none of the items (need 1 more head item to get my i220 headpiece for my PLD, I main healer now ya see), but I got 4 commendations out of it at least.

Doing roulette expert as scholar (ilvl 240) and was horrible. I hate big pull in Library HM >.< I had luck of keep tank with life (I used Dissipation 3x), and BLM died once.

I checked lodestone and tank was using gear between 160 and 230. Weapon 210.

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.

In my defense, the way they were speaking to me was equally, if not more condescending. It was clear as the conversation progressed they thought they were very high and mighty (I guess because they had everything to 60? Or were from a popular server? Idk) and I was some stupid ranged DPS wasting LBs (since they said they were "concerned" I didn't "understand the functions and mechanics of LBs"), and their NIN friend didn't even try to be even semi-polite. I don't see the point in starting arguments, which is why I was like "calm down bruh" and even but an XD in there, and I even used that very same line in my explanation as to why I used the LB--almost word for word. There is really no reason to speak to someone as if they are the dirt below your shoes, which is what this person was doing. I know tone is difficult to decipher in text conversations, but I could hear their tone based on the language and wording they used in their responses to me. Especially since they didn't let it go until after the Ozmashade phase where as I had long since stopped responding to them.

I did Titan HM for my MSQ. I don't know how its so hard for the party I had. Half the party are dead by the time Titan's Heart came about (either falling off or just standing in AoEs). But by the time Titan has 30% HP left, its just me (SCH), a DRK, and a BRD. We cleared it with just that. Yes, I was going nuts keeping them alive and popping juice and eatherflow when I can to make sure I have MP to not wipe. How many comms did I get? Nada.

To make matters worse. my cohealer has been AFK the whole time. How I know? Never even popped a heal on herself and didn't move out of the landslide.

To be fair when I did Titan HM for the 3.4 storyline we wiped first go because everyone had the feels from his new text. ;~;

Oh man. That text. I was like ;__; when I started reading it. It was so sad!! D:

I was doing story with two friends, and we just 3-man unsynced it. While the entire time being like D: in voice over the text. XD

I joined my first ls static some days ago thinking that farms/raid progression, or, maybe--potential new friends would be made....nope. I was wrong. Turns out the ls master was just throwing out invites to fill the group. I know, because he invited the worst...drg...ever. Every time we'd run sophia he'd fall off, get beamed, or forget to stack with a buddy. Oh...and our dps was always slacking! :3

Another reason is because the ls master has a close group of discord friends that he raids with all the time...never inviting anyone else. No one, out of the 62 people, wants to help with anything if you're not apart of that little group. well...unless they "need" you.

Now, I'm normally a nice person. Yes, i can get snippy on my bad days, but more than likely I'm pretty forgiving and laid back. But I really hate being lumped together, ignored (I actually asked for help with a pf recruit and NO ONE answered. Not until one of the head ls people wanted to do WT all night and people were throwing themselves at her..), and then used like a spare tire.

TL;DR a seriously crappy drg was invited to a heavily clique static group

I dropped out tonight /shrug. I was better off with my fc and rf xD
