Pineapple on pizza is nice. Our local chain has a Peppered Pineapple Pizza...

[Kolsykol]

I always wonder if people who hate pineapple on pizza have ever tried it or they ate raw pineapple on pizza.

The only pizza that confuses me is banana pizza.
I dunno if it's a Swedish thing, I've never actually seen anyone ever eat it tho I don't even think it's actually common to like it here either it almost seems more like an elaborate meme on a national level.
I've even seen banana and pineapple pizza lol it's just wtf.

Also big chunks isn't very nice imo, when I get it they're smaller pieces.

That actually looks really really good.

I am so ashamed.
Healer died at the last boss in Ktisis Hyperboreia.
Our tank is a DRK.
Well, I guess it's a wipe, I thought.

But I WAS A RED MAGE.
I LEGIT FORGOT I CAN RAISE.
(Until the healer told me to verraise)

I got out of the instance so quick after the duty ended. ><

Dead ends, i was tanking as usual.

Healer goes down on 1st boss due to the wind mechanic with the insta death thing. NP we have an RDM. 10 secs pass. No verraise. 20 secs pass, i really need to say something: "res healer." No reaction. Much later RDM dies to not stacking their dorito with me and the melee. Shortly after we get a "sorry, guys i messed up." Still did not realise the healer was dead the ENTIRE time. 2 of us somehow clutch out a kill by slivers of HP left.

Eventually the lightbulb goes off in the RDMs head. Oh shit the healer! I cuda ... !!! Sorry guys my brain was turned off.

Yeah brain thing happens a lot but not often to that degree XD.

Tower of Zot.

I met a PLD who... unfortunately could not keep aggro on all the mobs. There was always one or two who turned red and some that turned yellow... So I had to heal myself/another party member and the tank. Sometimes he Clemency's himself at 50% to 70%. Still kinda surprised how he lost aggro though. There was no Resquiescat and Holy Circle's either to help control the AoE, so some of the mobs he missed went towards the Dancer. The Ninja was fine on aggro though, but that's because the mobs were getting pulled out of Doton.

Dealt with healing multiple people fine for most of the dungeon until the last 2 wall to wall pulls (the double airships + roader that hits like a mini tankbuster + the sword guys). Because I kept on getting aggro, I had to heal myself a lot more because those mobs hit hard if you aren't a tank. I spent most of my time using my Eukrasian Diagnosis after using up my cooldowns, but even then the PLD died. I couldn't save him at all.... though I have a feeling it probably also has to do with him using both Rampart and Sentinel simultaneously and running out of mitigations to fall back on after when the enemies slapped him from 60% to 0 in one go...

The second time we did the wall to wall, he just stopped before doing the wall and pulling the last 2 enemies. One of the DPS and I get confused and run back. I guess he didn't want to do the full wall to wall to ensure we all survive. We beat up the enemies and then move onto the small next wave. On the final wave of enemies, I end up getting aggro again and lose a decent amount of HP. Before I can use an addersgall ability, I see him apply Intervention (with Knight's Benediction) on me. That's fine I guess, I still was losing HP to the 2 mobs that are still aggro'd onto me before it got pulled awa- HOLD ON. That's when I realized... if he just used Holy Sheltron on himself, he could've just kept aggro on all the mobs with the passive healing. That meant he wasn't using oath gauge in any of the wall to wall pulls....

A Warrior tank was crying for Kardia and when I move the Kardia to a DPS that is low on HP, the Warrior cries: "KARDIA!"

Honestly, one of my favorite things about Kardia/Kardion is the fact that I can weave Kardia to swap Kardion around. DPS needs topping off after a raidwide? Swap it over! DPS is topped off? Swap it back to tank!

It's not the same thing, obviously, but the situational "switch this around on-the-fly" nature of it hits the same part of my brain that misses cleric stance.

Had a Praetorium where the rest of the party got into a "debate" over pineapple on pizza.

It's not a debate. It's an objective fact that pineapple on pizza is amazing. No one can disagree with this.

I, in turn, shared the cursed knowledge that McDonald's used to serve pizza.

True story: I was a kid back when McDonald's first introduced their pizza thing, and they aired a commercial on TV. It wasn't a commercial for their pizza -- in fact, they didn't mention it at all. Rather, they showed footage of astronauts about to embark on some kind of space mission, and they said there was going to be a major announcement that will air at midnight. I saw this ad many times that day, and I convinced my parents to let me stay up late just to see it. I was so sure it was going to be something mind blowing, like they discovered alien life. I was so excited! So guess what happens at midnight: McDonalds announces they will now serve pizza. My mom laughed her ass off, and I felt very foolish indeed.

Had a gladiator on stone vigil today and I was a monk. They forgot to put tank stance of for the first pull but nothing bad happened, I told them to put tank stance and they did. We kept double pulling as normal and we cleared the dungeon. I recommended them to do their job quests so they can get their job stone.

Its possible to not overreact and mald on this thread for you too!

Seconded.

It's especially good with something salty on the pizza, like olives (preferably kalamata olives, but black olives in a pinch).

Genuine question, how does one tank Stone Vigil? Getting Warrior and Dark Knight through that dungeon, there has never been one smooth run. I know the Dragon Aevis enemies hit for a ton, so do I pull small? People always try to get me to pull more wall-to-wall there but then everything goes to pot. Had one run where we accidentally pulled one dragon, 3 Ice Sprites, 3 more dragons, and then from out of the nether appeared 3 more Ice Sprites? They were being tugged along by a DD. I've no clue how but the SGE mentor healer got us through that, I died once though. Other times healers aren't able to heal through things at all, as if the danger isn't anticipated.

Is there something I'm doing wrong? Should I hold off on wall-to-walling there?
