Being both good AND bad at the game?

[Wissp]

Well I do work nights so actually I do these runs before work begins at 10 pm. But I know what you mean about being tired, the brain tends to turn to mush after 3 hours of banging your head against hard stuff.

Yes, if I am doing dungeons with friends, I am definitely more on the sillier side, but even in duty finder where I am more serious I will sometimes play poorly. Honestly, part of it is probably being with random people, not knowing what they will do and how they will play. But other times I have no excuse, I just play like crap and do dumb things.

And yes, doing the same dungeons over and OVER again does tend to make you lazy and do dumb things at times I will admit. It's when I am not being lazy, trying to focus, and be serious, yet do REALLY dumb things that make me wonder; wait, I AM good at this game, right?

There might be a bit of confirmation bias in this. In Coils (say first run of the week) you are expecting the harder fight and would brush off a minor mistake that put you on the floor and forget it. In a light party in a dungeon you haven't done for a week, you are of the mindset "pfüh, this is a cakewalk", well when you mess up - and you are human after all - it sticks more in your mind.

You are clearly skilled and have good reaction time and memory, so you likely no more bad in light parties than you are in alliances, just that you are recalling the mistakes in a light party more than you are in the alliance.
