I feel like I've been cursed with bad groups recently

sunday: Panda2 and panda3. multiple parties disbanded due to general incompetence causing wipes. Things like overlapping puddles, failing to dodge the same aoes despite danger dorito, that sort of thing

monday: tower at paradigm breach. Alliance was so bad with mechanics and slow at dps that not only did we nearly wipe on the first boss, but the general incompetence was enough that lamentation nearly wiped the raid too
After that i put myself as danger dorito...half the raid failed to follow me and kept floor tanking. My poor healer friend was working overtime due to our other one being a cure 1 no mechanics dodging mess
Then when we hit red girl and my party wiped on the minigame dps check due to lack of bodies, the entire raid went to pieces again.

today: I have just come out of my 5th "farm" group of ex2 in a row. 1 group disbanded due to hitting enrage. 1 group disbanded to chakram incompetence (tbf that mechanic sucks with server ticks) and the others? multiple wipes because people cant remember to share water or spread for ice.

and its ALWAYS the dps that are greeding and dying, or not moving for aureole/compressed water

Snip

I feel you, lately the groups I'am getting are just outright bad...

Not sure if anyone reads this from my asphodelos 2 group just now i was in.

Sorry... i was really bad and died left and right to mechanics i should have mastered by now, meaning zero mistakes and no deaths at all. I am sorry...

5th "farm" group of ex2 in a row

I'm starting to think that if the word 'farm' is in the PF description, then no matter the joining restrictions, the group will wipe.

Had a WHM Rescue me into an AOE in Pandaemonium Floor 2.

Her excuse? "Stack for AOE"

Said stack, wasn't coming up yet. I truly truly truly hate DF WHM, it's always Russian roulette with how insanely annoying they can be.

Yesterday I was tanking a dungeon and the DRG tethered me instead of the other DPS. That's either weird or flattering. Not sure which.

That could been me, I sometimes tether Tanks since the ranged DPS enjoys to stay really away from the boss and I ain't running to you in the back, give you a tether and then again in the front just for the tether to break. I rather give it to the Tank, he deserves it mostly anyway.

I got a fresh new one, PLD in Asphodeleos 4, kept marking himself and removing the marking himself and the boss constantly for no discernable reason, and when someone removed it cause it was understandably annoying, he proceeding to throw a fit, even openly admitted to getting everyone killed over it.

Even told the whole party to die after the run was voer.


Over a marker...

Was it at least the Danger Dorito?

When "it makes more sense" to leave the healer to die to dps greed the boss down - Location: baelsar's wall
Yeah tank was a warrior, but still.
