See you did the right thing. You showed them what they musn't do. I'd say it's a good way to teach new people!

I can imagine there were a lot of Fs in the chat on that day.

Had a sort of an oddity while doing Grand Cosmos last night for my expert run. We got to the last boss, and everything was going fairly smoothly at the start. First fire debuff goes out, and everyone is able to pass it off to the furniture safely, no issues there. Everything keeps going well, no one accidentally burns any of the other pieces with the cross aoes or anything. Then the second fire debuff goes out, everyone else goes to a piece of furniture, and so I move to the last remaining piece in the back. For some reason, despite me basically being right next to it, targeting it, and clicking the button to interact with it multiple times nothing happens, like at all. The debuff doesn't pass, and my efforts to do so were in vain as I eventually die from the DoT. Healer types in chat "I'M SORRY!" though I'm not sure if they're apologizing because they took the chandelier I was originally going to go for (which wasn't a big deal because I had plenty of time to get to the other furniture) or because they thought they didn't heal enough (which they couldn't have done anything about anyway since I couldn't cleanse the debuff). I'm coming up from a raise at this point though, so no time to really respond, but the boss still dies without any other issues from that point. I just can't for the life of me figure out why that happened, but hopefully it's just a one-time oddity.

You don't need to click anything to pass the fire - your character hitbox just has to touch the hitbox of the furniture. And in case of the curtains, the hitbox is much smaller than it would appear for such a large piece of cloth.

Usual day in the neighborhood saving runs, no commendations.

I believe it was one of the back couches that I was going for, and I was literally right up on it, essentially running into so idk. Only way I could have been closer was if I was somehow jumping right on top of it. Iirc it was actually the curtains I did for the first fire debuff, and that went through without a hitch. At least it's good to know I don't actually have to click anything, but that only raises more questions as to why it didn't work in that particular case. It wasn't even last second either, I was on it for at least a good couple server ticks before I eventually died.

Snip.

It could have been lag of some kind.

This happened to me today, too. I walked right over a piece of furniture and nothing happened. Then, our tank waddles her little lalafell self over and steals it right out from under me. Lucky there was a sofa nearby.

Today during leveling roulette on ninja, I got Shisui. And it was amazing because sometimes I would throw down Doton just a little too early and the tank actually pulled the mobs back to it! I wanted to give him my comm at the end but he left before I could.

[Rasikko]

I die a little inside for all NINs so far, because they plop down their Doton's and the tank pulls the mobs out of it.. This also happens with Sacred Soil and Asylum, but almost never Collective Unconscious(?).

[Allegor]

To be entirely fair, a whirlwind of dust does look like could be an enemy attack. I recall the first time I saw it it took me till the last boss to realize it was the NIN doing it, not the mobs, and the tank thought the same lol
