My personal favourite is Rhalgr in Aglaia. His just seem so much more impactful, you know

Lmao, do you just have a folder of these saved or something?

Edit: Also those three on the far finger just getting zooped has me grinning ear to ear. They're gone in a frame.

Had one of the odder runs of Seal Rock from today's spam.

Basically there are a lot instances of my teammate simply not bothering to cap the nodes. Usually there are at least 3-5 other players hot on heels for the nodes. Not that I'm complaining, as I've been actively trying to get that Keeper of Knowledge title since forever, and I finally got mine from my last run!

A cursed run of Haukke Manor: Starring a 32 DRK who wears lv 12 gear + crafting gear in Haukke Manor. Their HP was dropping pretty fast even with mitigation on single pulls.

When tank gear drops from the treasure chest and no one rolls for quite a while, I ask people to please roll so the tank can gear up. Tank proceeds to pass the free upgraded gear and say "2 low for me here >;]"
DPS (who apparently is a casual healer main) says "tank is higher level than the gear", "do you not have regen at this level?", "Tank isn't a tank main.", "If anything, my gear is more of a shocker it is a mess".

b r u h so much to unpack...
Hakkuke Manor syncs to lv 30, so first, I have no access to regen (Lv 35 skill).
Secondly, it doesn't matter if the tank is higher level than the gear if the gear they are wearing doesn't give any defenses.

For a comparison... The Lv 25 Crafter headpiece Silver magnifiers they were wearing gives 13 DEF, 27 MDEF. Manor Elmo (The Helmet) the dungeon dropped gave 61 DEF, 61 MDEF.
The Lv 12 Disciple of War bottoms they wore gave 36 DEF, 36 MDEF. The Manor Breeches the dungeon dropped gave 82 DEF, 82 MDEF.
The Lv 30 Crafter top Velveteen Gown gave 22 DEF, 43 MDEF. The Lv 28 Manor chestpiece gave 82 DEF, 82 MDEF.
The Lv 20 Crafter footwear Initiate's Thighboots gave 11 DEF, 22 DMEF. The Lv 28 Manor Sandals gave 61 DEF, 61 MDEF.

Do you want to know what the Lv 15 Hall of Novice tank gear stats are? The chestpiece and bottoms gives 49 DEF, 49 MDEF, the feet gives 37 DEF, 37 MDEF. Yep, I was healing a tank who had even less defense than a geared up lv 15 Satasha tank in a dungeon twice that level. Crafter gear also doesn't provide any HP bonuses as well.

I understand they're trying to defend their friend when they say they aren't a tank main, but their justification to not gearing up... only makes their friend look even worse??? Gearing up is not tank-only experience. Every job and role has to gear up. Even the MSQ tells you to gear up. Heck... not even just tank gear, any ARR disciple of War dungeon gear would've been better than what they were wearing...
Finally... the DPS who said their gear is more of a shocker... they were wearing proper lv 30 to lv 40 DPS gear... so their defenses averaged around 60 or higher. ._. I sincerely do not think they realize that their tank had a LOT less defense than they did and if they tanked, I'd actually have an easier time healing them.

Pray a sprout healer does not encounter them cause good lord... My understanding of how terrible people can be has been constantly refreshing each day.

Alliance roulette threw me into Aglaia yesterday as blm, and a certain thing after the run told me that one blm in another alliance was barely doing anything in fights, afking or purposefully eating floor.

If you're gonna go into 90 content as a dps, at least try to participate please. Things die faster if you press your shiny dps buttons.
