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

So, I just want to thank the group of people I had in Sastasha just now.

I've been playing on my main all week extensively, and I kind of wanted a break, so I switched over to my alt (well, one of them...I have a bit of an alt problem ), who is a baby level 17 pugilist about to enter Sastasha for the first time. The other three people were a pugilist (like me), a level 60 white mage, and a level 60 paladin. Not only did the level 60 players offer a full clear to give me and the other sprout experience/mapping, they were super nice! I really wish I could have given both of them my comm, because rarely do people ever offer full clears, especially in a low-level dungeon like Sastasha where they just want to get in and get out. I really wish I could encounter more people like these. And the paladin was a mentor! Making fellow mentors proud!

Thank you to all three that were in there with me. After the negativity and drama I encounter in DF/RF/PF, it is really refreshing to meet nice people like you guys!

What I do in this Case ... Vote Kick, directly, without Hesistation, even telling that Gladiator to "Git gud". Seriously...
In my Opinion this is even Harassement and Hindering the Gameplay of other Players because Gladiator exactly knows this on his own.

Quite Funny, this is not a single case, last Week I encountered two Lv.60 Players with no Job Stone. Justice happened that's all I can say.
If Players hover around Lv.60 and are DPS Classes and pull of 200-300 DPS, this just a No-Go.

Don't feel too bad. You aren't alone in doing Ex mechanics in her HM fight. I do them all the time and get really off balance from it. Still feel like super scrub when I fall off though. XD

I direct queued her this weekend to cap scripts.

Me: ok, she knocks back on that! *runs right in front of head, eats full force blast*

...or at least half the party belongs to the guy's FC which carried him there, did anyone think of this?

[vanitaslaughing]

Well, predictably, the guy did.. chrrm. I was in there as white mage, with a legit newbie white mage as second healer. Adds were chewing on us until our DRK decided to have mercy on the rest of the team and pulled the entire pack. Big ol' dude chewed up the ninja, didn't die before Judgement. Wipe.
I think at this point I just. gave up entirely, we went again. Got past two timestops until we ultimately wiped again because people were dying left and right and left and right - we were all rather. Thrown off by this (newbie WHM lb3'd after Gravitational Anomaly timestop, bc my already hard time dodging this one was just. made worse by the fact there was a Gladiator). I did my darnest best after I got rezzed by that but people were dropping like flies, I seriously just. gave up. It's rare for me to just give up like that.

Vote abandon after the second wipe. I...think it was the second. I was spaced out pretty bad from confusion at that point

...or at least half the party belongs to the guy's FC which carried him there, did anyone think of this?

That's what my friends and I assumed, considering they were nearly fully in crafted 250 gear they claimed a friend made for them (a quick lodestone check did unveil that indeed most of the gear was made by people from their FC). Not even I have friends who would shove 250 gear at me for free, what the heck?? I'm just... so very baffled that notone of these people told them it was as simple as levelling Conjurer to level 15, not level 60 as they thought....? (Okay, maybe they didn't believe me saying that in there, because I'vegot full 60s other than Blacksmith and Armourer)

I'm willing to believe he's that good. cause I'm sick of it always being a bad that everyone makes fun of. I don't care how stupid I sound either, I'm just sick of the toxic tudes all the time. Not saying you're toxic but at the same time, What's wrong with thinking or joking he's THAT good? People need to lighten up. :C

Personally I myself would get a good laugh out of it to be honest.

Thing it's impossible to be that good since you have 50% or less of your job toolkit. No stances, less skills and less effectives CD. It's sounds impossible to survive a decent tankbuster or a fight too long., or you're getting carried...
SE should've forced to unlock the job to equip item lvl 30+, so people would be aware of it.

Don't wanna be toxic, it's just my opinion but man ... GLD on A12N, like really ?
