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

I wish it was a joke.. I wasn't joking about being banned for it! If you have ever seen any of my posts on here you would know just how wrong you are. I am bothered by "toxic casuals" I have consistently complained about them for years on these forums. I have never ignored anybody, reported anybody in-game, or blacklisted! This is what I mean about "tribalistic", you seem to be assuming I am on whatever "side" you aren't on. Very funny to me that you seem to confirm this right now.. proving me right!

The only side I'm on is mine, friend.

If you think me disagreeing with you validates you then rock on I guess.

If you want to keep sticking me in a box seriously please just ignore my posts, it's super tired and I have no time for it. For what it's worth nothing I've ever seen you say has been ban worthy, free speech for everyone!

I headed a prog/clear attempt (PF to clarify) party for Suzaku EX. I healed, figured that taking the runes like a champ and healing though it wouldbe the best idea as we were pushing the damage ot to the point where we were around 14-20% by the time that my decisions happened. I wound up taking 6 stacks of vuln before we killed the boss...and lived, and am thus recording this awesome but foolish feat for posterity (Would I advise it, prolly not, it was after a few wiped so we had the Echo then and we were also going unsynched)

So, yeah, just putting this out there for any sprouts that come across this thread.
It is not elitist to ask you where your job stone is at lv43, nor is it elitist to explain to you that's almost certainly why your last tank "bailed before we even started fighting"

It's just a "difference in playstyle".

Someone actually took offense at that?

Ah.

Elitism is something I don't like
You asking about a job stone is something I don't like
You asking about a job stone is elitist

CHECKS OUT!

Last night, i was in a tank mount farm for the last 13 runs of my WAR mounts, the runs were fine but every 2-3 runs someone left lol. Ok, nvm, im almost done... so only two runs left, but then an S spawns. Ok, whatever ill leave, get the S - i need it after all.

Ok so ill ask my FC mates for trial and raid roulett... two come, we que up for trial... and its lv 60 - didnt count for that mount, well bad luck. We que for raid... oh boi, Alex 9... first time since.. idk, late HW early SB i saw the Refurbisher gettin a 2nd arm... but we managed it, as i used the tank LB to soften his hit. Well didnt count either, soooo... hard way.

Ill que for Leveling and the 3 of us end up in the Aery with a sprout heal, on lvl 57 at amazing 120 gear and 115 nq staff... Ok, ik it is enough but it could be softer. .. ... first pull i notice i drop pretty rough so im more carefull and OH, there was no Holy at all so no stun. So i write "pls use some Holy so the mobs get stunned" but no reaction... fine, i need this run and idc this time as at least the dps were my mates so it still was ok.

Then we realize... he literally was only healing. EVERYONE all the time - a true pure heal. Not one attack, he just run around and healed, ate every aoe on the way lol.
Whatever we made it till nidhogg... and ofc, he just stays in the red orbs and eat the burn... but as i expected he didnt heal Estinien at all... so right after the shield he falls and we wipe.
We respawn and the heal writes "Somebody made a mistake " SOMEBODY you %&$§"$%§$%§&!!!!!????

I checked his profile and turns out he had a lv 76 dps as well... so he has to know better... i told him to save Bene for Estinien so he cant die before we kill nidhogg... that finally worked.
-Bonus, he didnt roll for any loot and the healer gear he got, he didnt use at all.


Well, that was when i needed one more run. On fc mate left for a break, my friend and i qued for eden... and got leviatan. Ok 4ppl new, no big deal. Ok the Dk wanna mt? sure let him, idm...
So when the TB was casted he stayed at the party, killing an smn... who then just stayed dead. ALL RUN. Well we still get to about 20% when the healer manage to die and we finally wipe as just a tank could not clear - and i was very willing to kick the smn. She left right after we respawned with the DK explaining they qued together and she killed him before on Innocence and he wanted his revenge, so she was salty and didnt ress... I swear if it werent like 2am id reported them both bc that is BS...


In the end i got my mount but holy kupo what Journey...

Bonus: after more then 30 5.3 trial kills i rolled 1-4 on about 18 weapons xD

Ouch! I hope your luck changes.

To whoever this concerns: Next time you get Seat of Sacrifice in Trials Roulette, don't blame someone for failing the qte and then refusing to do the fight after that wipe, causing us to always fail.

Dear random tanks in Dohn Mheg,

Please be good lads and ladies and use Interject on the Fuath to stop their damage up buff from loving the ever living sh*t out of the mob they just decided to hug. Stuns DO NOT WORK ON THE FUATH AT ALL. Please also make sure that you use your defensive cooldowns and your invulns when you mass pull. This gives me time as a healer to get you all nice and set up for the smackdown that'll come afterward when your invuln wears off.

Sincerely,
Your random PUG healers


P.S.:To that war tank I had last night: Holmgang no longer f*cking roots you in place and does not let your hp go down past 1, you ninny. Rotate your damn cooldowns (meaning use something other than f*cking Rampart and Raw Intuition), and do not blame your healer for your failures, especially after I ended up bottoming out twice for mp for that huge pull after I blew all of my cooldowns keeping you upright plus fae pact. I ended up using Dissipation early on your ass for the previous mass pull because 'lol what are cooldowns?' and I watched your aug scavean gear ass' hp just yo-yo with my riding my cooldowns because you just used those two singular defensive cooldowns. You used only those the entire dungeon. I honestly don't remember eyeing my Excog/aetherflow/faerie timers so goddamn much.

My sch self is very, very, VERY angery with you, and I hope you never blame me or any other healers again for your stupidity.
