Got kicked Right before boss.

So you had two healers in your party?

Yes, or a summoner i'm not too sure thou.

[Skivvy]

It's impossible to have two healers in a DF finder party. The fact that you're dead-set on this being the party line up, and now that you're not confident Kaldea was the DRG.... What other parts of this story have been wrong?

The whole situation is unfortunate, however, it seems like you very well may be directing your anger at the wrong party member. At this point, it's probably best to do some self-reflecting if you want to continue with tanking. Read some tooltips, find a dummy at your FC house and practice rotations, etc.

Most of us have done stupid things while playing new jobs (or just being new), it kind of goes with the territory. Most people in dungeons will be quite patient with you and offer advice if they know you are knew, or aren't comfortable with something yet. Listen to the advice and practice it when you can.

Appreciate it. I never knew that was even a thing. How does one find out about that, but not how your basic abilities work? Legitimate question.

Lol good question honestly. SE give tooltips and there are tooons of guides and info around, and other players/friends/fc mates that would more than likely be willing to help teach you if you only ask. Usually people find out about the command in Novice Network when they ask how to leave said network. The /nastatus off command is the only way I know of to for a person with the sprout to not be auto-pulled back into the network...you literally have to turn your status as a new user off, and lose access to the Network by extension.

also about the whole sprout thing yes i did hide mine, I don't understand what your point is for not showing mine, simply because i don't want the icon next to my name tag.

The sprout-icon is there to let people know that you're still new to the game, so they know they're dealing with a new person right from the start.
You created this thread with "I'm new to this game" and then you hide this kinda relevant information from your fellow party members?
If you want the benefits from being new - for example more leeway, the benefit of the doubt, (polite) explantions of boss mechanics etc. - you should disclose that information to your party. A very, very easy way to do that is not to hide your sprout. We're not mindreaders, so if I see a level 50-person that should have a sprout but does not have one, I will assume that that character is an alt - or generally speaking: That the player behind that character is so not-new to the game that they felt comfortable taking that sprout off.
Bottomline: If you want people to give you leeway because you're new, dont hide that you're new.
Honestly, being a bit more proactive about that can work like a charm aswell - a little message at the beginning of a dungeon "Hey guys, still new to this and first time running this dungeon - gonna do my best, but hints are appreciated!" - I'm still doing that each time I take one of my melee classes into a dungeon after not playing them for a while (well, not excatly that message, but something along those lines).

actually it might of been a summoner, we had 1 healer actually.

Kaldea said they were a Samurai in their initial post in the other thread (http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...76#post4602876), before this thread was even posted. Their DRG is 70 and their SAM is 52, and you don't get much worth mentioning for running 50/60 on a max level character, and there would be no reason to lie about what class they were playing in the first place, so...

[KaivaC]

All i remember was for the party was, me (Tank) (Scholar) (Dragoon) (Healer), i'm not confidently sure what class kaldea was at the time of this but i'm 40% she was indeed the Dragoon.

You know Kaldea is here...why not just ask them? Also, yeah, what they did was shitty, but it looks like they didn't initiate the post, and even if they said no, you'd have been kicked anyways from what it sounds like. Only takes two people in 4-mans to vote yes for kicking. Also, when I was a sprout, I found that a lot of people gave me advice because of my sprout status when I tanked myself. Never played WoW myself, I imagine it's very different.

[ExKage]

You're not able to have 2 healers in a DF party. Considering both you and Kaldea corroborate having a scholar, I would accept that the healer is the scholar and you are misremembering. Kaldea said they were SAM and there was a DRG.

i've never said i'm lying, just basing off what i remember, i've done multiple dungeons since i posted this, so i've somewhat forgot.

I played wow before joining FFXIV but i didn't play as a tank in wow i was mainly dps, so yes FFXIV is my first mmo playing as a tank, so let's not downgrade somebody just sayin.

Then that's even less of an excuse to the issue. Sure, you didn't tank, but here's my question. Ever have a Warrior tank? Did you actually see them spam weapon throw? Because that's what you were basically doing, spamming weapon throw on one target and nothing else.

Only difference is at least weapon throw didn't cost 1/10th of your resource.

All i remember was for the party was, me (Tank) (Scholar) (Dragoon) (Healer), i'm not confidently sure what class kaldea was at the time of this but i'm 40% she was indeed the Dragoon.

You can't have 2 healers. I think you need your colors checked too.

Here let me help.
