Started Void Ark queue at 7 pm PST. This was before I fell asleep on my keyboard. When I woke up, it was at 5 hours. Spoiler alert... I gave up.

I can't wait for 24-man Roulette.

I've had a few general ones over the weekend while leveling MNK:

Other MNKs not bothering to use positionals or True North, I know it's frustrating when you miss them for whatever reason but at least try.

On the above: Tanks turning every boss into Saturday Night Fever Disco Spin time for no reason, I Tank I know when you're just spinning the mob round for "lulz." Stop it.

The one Mentor in Doma running away with the stack marker, setting off mines, standing in the machine guns, running into the last bosses chainsaw and dropping the meteor marker on the tank while ley lining back to the other side of the room. Youre the reason noone takes mentors seriously when we try to give advice. I hope you get banned.

Other than that had some chill people and good times, the usual ups and downs of DF

did a Leveling Roulette the other day as a lv65 SCH with my challenge log looking like this

Dungeon Roulette: 2/3
Dungeon Complete: 4/5

and I get Bardam's via the roulette so I'm thinking it's pretty sweet as I just hit 65 from doing Trials. I got the DRK that does the wall to wall pull while stopping at each and every pack for a good 2 GCDs before moving on to the next. He pops CD at least and I manage to keep him up through the entire dungeon, he even tells me that I did a good job on the 2nd large pull (one before the 1st boss) saying that not many can do that. All I'm thinking is "go jump off a cliff" cause I HATE those stupid wall to wall pulls. My friend was the SMN in the group and other member was a DRG and I just watched that poor DRG's TP tick down to nothing as he tries to keep up with all the Doom Spikes and Sonic Thrust (and did use Invig). Meanwhile my everything is on CD trying to keep that tank alive. That tank reaffirmed why I switched to BRD main this expansion

Ever since I restarted tanking, I always run into melee DPS who are constantly up in my face. There's a reason these mobs are turned away from you all. Unless one of your positionals require "annoying the hell out of the tank by standing directly in front of the mob".

Still got an issue with people pulling for me as well. Listen, if you want to pull so badly, go play a tank. Like, what's stopping you?

some dps just flat out think this is still the days of XI were DPS's Pulled. it's time for these scrubs to move on and get w/ the program,

I had a terrible DRK tank in Shisui yesterday.. I was on WHM. He already annoyed me at the start because he ran off before I used protect. Then, on trash pulls, he kept losing hate to my aoes. I ended up tanking the second boss as WHM because even with lucid dreaming and him in grit, he failed to pull the boss back off me (I was just above the DPS). On the first pull after the second boss, the crab was really nailing him hard.. I noticed he barely had more HP than me, even if his gear wasn't that awful, so maybe it was broken? We tried to ask about his gear and one of the DPS was yelling at him to provoke on the second boss, but he never said a word. I just let him die on the final 5 seconds of the last boss out of frustration.

Worse was that I was running Shisui partially due to wanting the set for glamour, but the only healer drop I got was a necklace. :V

I had a weird experience a couple months ago of a player joining a dungeon with 0 interest of actually doing the dungeon instead they would just run into every mob until they died and repeat the process until they were kicked.

Today I ran into the same player again today and they tried to do the same thing again I recognized there name immediately and we just waited for 5 mins and booted them but I don't get what the point of playing like that is and they are definitely playing quite often as the first time I saw them they had only 1 job leveled and now they have like 11 jobs from 40-51,

You mean....you didn't even ask him to do small pulls, you impressively managed to keep him up, he actively uses CDs AND even compliments you...and you're mad? As if the tank can read your mind when big pulls are the norm? As healer I expect big pulls and as tank I do big pulls unless the healer tells me otherwise. If anything you should be feeling good that you actually healed him well and thankful that he actually used CDs properly or else this story wouldn't have even had a happy ending.

Nope, instead let's piss of the most needed role in the game and pull for them and other crap. and then everyone scratches their head as to why no one tanks. it's a really hard job honestly. PLEASE STOP MAKING THINGS HARDER FOR TANKS! there's barely enough to go around so why make it harder? sorry but jesus. -.-

Or you get the black mage spamming Blizzard because they're a frost mage. I came from WoW too, but I'm not that level of derp.
