Tales from Duty Finder: Some make you laugh, some make you cry. Let's vent. 2.0

So I was in the Level 87 dungeon when I noticed that our DRK was dying awfully fast. I wasn't sure what was happening since I was healing on time, the DRK was mitigating frequently and properly, and the Reaper and Bard were using their AOE abilities.

Do we chalk this up to DRK being the least durable tank?

Nope. Definitely not. It was just how long the pulls were lasting because of our really, really bad Bard who wasn't pressing buttons to kill things faster.

Hhmm, iirc i had 3 Hrotgars in speedos in the Hrasvaelgr dungeon. As an astro, it was very hard to look at them Also aim to heal them.... >.>

Now you know how it feels whenever I see a bunch of Au Ra and Miqo'te on Bikinis. Not that aiming to heal them is hard, the party list helps. But it does make me wonder why the hell you're tanking on a bikini of all things.

I know right! I Also wonder that too! Also got 1 roe in speedo it was the most awkward moment along with the 2 guys in the party.

At least the Hrotgars were bearable... >.>

It's the fur. Not that it helps, but at least gives the illusion there's something covering them.

I don't pay attention anymore. I just ended up chalking it to "Eh, aether shenanigans" and barely bother looking at who's in my party. But every so often in voice chat, you do have people uncomfortable that X player is stark nakey. Especially in places with hazardous environments.

We have so many good glamours in the game. Even for the larger races, where it's hard to glamour due to stuff being stretched, there's some good stuff. Why do people insist on going into battle as Godbert? :| You're not Godbert. You'll never be Godbert.

Definitely the wrong franchise to expect anything even remotely resembling realism or practicality. It has an in-universe explanation however; Glamours are just that: glamours. It looks like a bikini, sure, but it's really an illusion, she's actually wearing 40kg of plate armor ;O

Exactly why I then posted that I don't bat an eye anymore and chalk it up to "Aether Shenanigans" xD

Still doesn't explain why people think that qualifies as appropriate glam :P then again! If it's in the game, it's because Square endorses it. So even if we're going to be prudes about it, they're not doing anything wrong. And if we can find it tasteful, all the better~

However, if people think that seeing Roes and Hrothgars naked is cringy, believe me, it's just as cringy to see anyone like that.

I think the only really bad thing would be if people start doing provocative emotes while on those outfits, right? >.º Like, legit question. It's why they blocked people who were being lewd on the Character Portraits, I assume: even if it's in the game, there's a line.

To the DNC mentor we had mostly afking in Weeping City and nearly causing us to wipe to Ozma and for some reason the vote kick failed to go through: I hope you step on legos on your way to the toilet at 3 am.

This guy gets it.

Then....why not tell them?

It takes a casual mention and that is it.

People typically will ignore what I ask, get snarky, claim I'm yelling at them, everything except listen to what I request. People tend to assume that it's based on the way I state it, nah. I can and have been gentle with my feedback to only receive meltdowns.

You'd think they'd wonder why they are out of MP constantly and barely healing when spamming cure 3, but idk, for some people, claiming they think at all is a big assumption.
