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

I was actually watching her do that guildhest, she wanted me to see your glamor because she said it was really nice (and it was).

That's very kind of you. I'm glad you like it!

It was kind of weird because I just read the stories earlier in this thread about others running instances with Selli about 10 minutes before the Guildhest.

In A12 on BLM, I got a lot of laughter and four comms for catching the maintank off-guard and stealing aggro with my opener before the first tankbuster was out. While the healers scratched me off the ground giggling about what happened, the maintank apologized to me with "Sorry, I totally expected you all to be shitty". I can't stop laughing myself about this, I never gained aggro although I used Quelling Strikes and had a competent tank with me

I was doing expert and was happy that I got uh... the garuda one (I'll edit the name in later), because that is my preferred one of the two. I had a good group we were plowing through the mobs and doing big pulls and I had no issue spamming some holys and the bard even did ballad after pulls so my mp was back up! <3 So we get to the first boss and I have a power flicker and everything resets and of course I am kicked off. I am EXTREMELY pissed because I was enjoying the run and I didn't want to queue again. Get everything back up wait for my ps4 to do it's restoring thing after an improper shutdown and then log in. I am still in the dungeon! Party is like.. oh.. you're back! We didn't even notice you were gone. I'm like how could you not? But they were able to kill boss and mobs without me and without dying. They were at second boss and we continued. I was sooooo happy and I thank them for not kicking me and I even got 2 commendations! Really great group and nicest players ever. I wish I remembered their names because I would give them a shout out for being awesome. Gotta love runs like those!

...Why can't people comm healers for good healing and not for DPSing, why can't people comm DPS for good DPS and not for tanking/healing?

Because doing your job is the very minimum of acceptable play. It's merely adequate. Comms go to those whose performance is impressive in some way.

There was a Ninja in Sophia ex earlier who was using the ilvl 175 Bismark daggers and boisterously bragging about having the highest DPS. I don't parse and never have so I'm not sure what anyone was hitting for, but I'm pretty sure he was just going off the aggro table which he was #3 on the whole time. I was #5 though and didn't budge at all when my deathflare hit for 12k. I know SMN's are naturally going to be lower because our pet has separate damage values, but the table still really confuses me sometimes.

I really wanted to tell him to equip his normal weapons but I was afraid of being rude and we ended up abandoning anyways.

Got into Sophia NM via Roulette Trial just now. We wiped once, would have been able to clear but everyone else suddenly fell from the last tipping. The others had no problem retrying, except this other WAR from Ragnarok (Thanks lodestone) who looked like some sort of (O The Irony) SJW Aura with deep pink hair and face that doesn't like to be assumed their races made some sarcastic remark then went DC on purpose. The 7 of us did the job and just went melee wanted to LB, s/he came back and we lost the bar. Healer ress them but refused it—twice. There were no angry remarks from anyone whatsoever after we cleared it.

I'm a bit upset the rest of us literally carried a scrub and would like to take a jab at this tank who isn't so happy their trial roulette wasn't Ifrit HM and it didn't went well the first time but I remembered I am a gentleman and does not engage in online argument and it's 3am omgineed2sleep so I vent here instead.

I just did a Guildhest with Selli Noblesse. o_o

With how active Selli is and how often people seem to spot her, I feel like she's the "Where's Waldo" of the FF forum community. ^_^

LOL, yeah.

She's actually one of the forum regulars I remembered after I took my hiatus(es). Sucks that she's not on the forums anymore.

[Fluestergras]

I totally have to create a character in your datacenter just to meet Selli

The irony of a DPS telling a healer to DPS is...<snip>

Indeed, a DPS complaining about a healer not dealing damage is like a Tank complaining about a Summoner not using Titan-Egi
