PF reaches a new low (E1S Reclear)

[HyoMinPark]

Treating the game like a job and actually scheduling raid times is pretty embarrassing, yeah. But one should do what one enjoys

I know this is, like, a 3/10 quality troll post, but yes. It’s obviously embarrassing that 8 people who have separate lives and likely live in different time zones would like to find times that work for all of them so that they can get together and play video games. Obviously.



As for the OP, I literally forgot 75% of E1S’s mechanics already. I cleared it within an hour of going in there on Day 1, and then spent the rest of the week on the other fights. My entire static was kind of like “so uh...how does this fight go again?” when we zoned in today because we were all probably still thinking about Titan strats.

And here we have an interesting hot take on the mess that is Aether. If I took this with a grain of salt, I'd say Aether was made of baddies! One experience does not dictate the experience of many, especially if we are talking about alts that you don't spend most of your time on to see the community with your own eyes.

But thats what I mean. I'm not taking my experience as the end all be all D: But simply saying the people bashing Crystal are the reason it -has- no raid groups in the first place. Cause thats what they did at the start making people panic and run off before it was even made :c. - I actively went TOO crystal and haven't regretted it. - But yeah... I'm in agreement with you. - don't hurt me.-

*head pat* I won't hurt you but only because you asked nicely. And I was using you as an example to prove my point that people like to spread nonsensical hearsay to denounce Crystal cause ZOMG CRYSTAL IS SO CAZUL AND SO UNLIKE AETHER.

The most important thing is just, remove slacking players, that is key to PF success. Good players are patient and will stay in your party, anyone who also ditches and joins another fail party, well good luck to them. The content is puggable, cleared E3S in PF as well. There are just some PF rules to follow to reduce time waste based on sluggish players. Also important, if you find good players via PF, friend them, keep in contact (discord or so). Thus you can ask them when you go in if they have time and are in mood.

Guess Aether got watered down pretty hard during the mass exodus, pretty slow going here in Crystal as well, lots and lots of new folks but fresh faces are nice and most people learn well enough. >.<

For what it's worth, my group cleared last Wednesday after 3 hours, then spent the rest of the week working on 2, so when we recleared 1 last night it took us over an hour because we couldn't remember anything. Just give it a couple of weeks and it'll be as easy as Chaos.

Is this what top tier healing looks like?

Well look at you! All high, mighty, and entitled. Shame on all of us for not living up to your standard, oh great one. Thank The Twelve that this forum thread now exists; that we may all be reminded when your PF expectations haven't been met.

Perhaps you would understand the frustration when you do all the mechanics perfectly and memorized the fight after a short amount of time, to the point you're doing it on autopilot. Now imagine that, and then having to watch people die to dumb shit over and over, knowing you are doing everything you need to do, but the only reason you can not clear is others just can't get it together. At that point, you can only be left scratching your head in frustration, wondering what people find so hard about the fight.

I remember my static joking about the "Pro sch" when trying to pug E1S who kept dying to Eden's flare, didn't matter how many times they've seen it, they kept dying to it.

It's a pretty good indication of the state of party finder, yeah there are good people out there, but most of them are in statics and aren't trying to get clears from party finder.

Heck I'm sick enough of banging my head against a wall for extreme trials, the things that are a lot easier than savage but people can't seem to learn.
