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

Yesterday in Alliance Raid roulette I got Syrcus Tower, and I'm not sure whether we just had a lot of new people or if people just were being too lazy to dps, but we actually wiped on Glasya (second boss). I haven't seen that in literal years. Then we wiped on Xande because people weren't stacking on the stack markers. It was an interesting run, to say the least.

I have a macro for the beginning and end of every duty I do. Just a hello and goodbye thing. Easier for me to click than to type out.

I'm working on lnc/drg on one of my characters, who is also level 80 whm (finished story). Level 25 so still lnc, no job stone. Queue for dungeons and guildhests. Pop into the turtle guildhest, click my hello macro.

(Me) I hope everyone is having a great day! Let's all do our best!
You wave.
(Healer) tryna get them player commendations huh
Me internally: ?????????? When did I - I didn't?! Mention comms?!
(Healer) get em tbh. I just get them for existing lmao. Healer life
Me internally: Uh... okay... I know... I have a level 80 WHM and I'm rolling in them... I don't care about them...
(Me) No, just like being polite!
(Me) I know, I've an 80 whm!
(Healer) hope these peeps vote for you then
(Healer) I'm the sassy healer
Me internally: ...Sassy is one word for it... not the word I'd use, but...
(Me) Thank you, and good luck with your adventures!
You bid farewell.
(Healer) gg
I zone out.
You received a player commendation!

I know it's just RNG but holy crap EXDR, please stop giving me the final MSQ dungeon ;-; I think I've had it selected ten times in a row via EXDR now.

Every time I do Expert as a tank, I get The Twinning. Every. Single. Time.

It's the worst dungeon to me lately...
My fave is the Academia for the music and atmosphere plus
the final boss is amazing. :/
The Twinning is the most boring one in a long time, with rehash mobs too.

I don't mind it so much, probably in part because I love

Alexander,

But it does get monotonous after a while.

I kind of wish SE would cover the entire screen with this because obviously people don't see this or they're pigheaded and stupid. If you see this, maybe consider the fact that you actually have a new person running the instance?? Instead of being a jerk face maybe explain mechanics if I'm getting it wrong?? Oh I forgot, standard is to watch a guide and be absolutely perfect the first time otherwise you're garbage. SMH!!

But who else will someone blame their pointless mistakes on then?! They'd actually have to admit that the entire reason they keep wiping is not asking...that would be curtesy and kindness and things that people just don't have time for anymore!

Except when you do ask (which I did) you get met back with radio silence! And then you get an overambitious asshole of a tank who couldn't take a minute of their stupid day to explain what I was doing wrong! I'm so so sorry but it's either damned if I do or damned if I don't in this instance! Sorry for being new to the effing instance, I'll make sure I memorize that guide verbatim so you can shave off that 3 - 5 seconds for your speed run!

I generally go about in silence but when asked as you did i would stop no matter what role i am playing and type out the explanation, i'm a slow typer though so takes me a little while.

Got out of an Expert Roulette where the tank was complaining about DPS being low the entire time. We finished Akadaemia Anyder within 15 minutes.
