LoTA is frightening in the dark, all the behemoths are running wild~

I think I was in that run, or that phrase has already become a meme, cuz I remember people then quoting "Im <X-other-job or something else>" lol

I had a level 80 roulette today with a DNC that never used Technical Step and somehow used Single Finish on their Standard Step.

I had an expert roulette with a DNC that only used Standard Step when they did Technical Step

That screenshot was taken yesterday while I was finishing up my mogtome runs on yet another alt. 'Twas on the Primal data center.

Sounds like me. I keep forgetting to use it.

Imagine being such in a hurry to get carried that you pull mid-countdown on e11n only to spend half of the time dead and do less damage than a curebot.

Then don't play dancer.

Not a major story, but something I got some amusement out of:

Was doing Tower at Paradigm's Breach for my weekly coin (and managed to get the tank piece I wanted, despite having to go on WHM for queue times), and we had a BLM that was

1) Not new
2) Decently geared in mostly Cryptlurker or Augmented Exarchic with a finished Zadnor relic
3) Took the "ain't movin' out of this chair" meme a bit too literally

They were on the ground more than they were doing damage. They refused to move, quite literally - they'd pick a place and stand there the entire fight, only adjusting position when they were ressed. This position was also, very often, far out of AoE healing range. It didn't matter whether leylines were up or not, they just refused to do mechanics and often died for it. I stopped ressing them around midway through the second bosses. My co-healer seemed to realize by the end of Red Girl that they were a waste of mana.

The two RDMs in our group, though - bless their hearts they were trying. Granted, they probably thought me and my co-heal were too busy dpsing and not paying attention, but oh well. So long as it isn't our MP we're burning on a literal sack of potatoes.

just wanted to check if it's still considered rude to wear low level gear to a higher level dungeon

had a tank who wore all ironworks queue into great gubal (the level 59 one). He died before the first boss (mobs ate him for breakfast) so I said in chat better not overpull since you're only in 50 gear. Tank replied that he'd done the dungeon 3 times back to back with no issues, but sure. I was super tempted to retort, but bit my tongue. The rest of the run went pretty smoothly though I did roll my eyes at the unnecessary sass. The deeply petty side of me wanted to let him die on purpose but I didn't want to make the dps (one of 'em was a lil sprout) suffer unnecessarily.

Sounds like the guy got the better end of the deal if y'all cleared. Did nothing and got their clear.

Puppets Bunker. The boss that consists of 3 flight units where each party can only attack one.

One person in another alliance was dead, so I ressed them. They got up, and instead of going back to their group, stayed with mine and attacked our boss, which did nothing. Then they got their alliances stack marker, and stacked with our stack marker, wiping us.

Other alliance healers got us up and even with that our boss died first.
