#FFXIVHEALERSTRIKE

[Shurrikhan]

snip

If what defines someone as a striker is that they're on strike from (i.e., refusing to use) matchmaking, why would you think a player you got through matchmaking was a striker?

This is like going to a senior home expecting to find only children and complaining about its residents as said children.

B.) What I wrote was not a hyperbole and it definitely wasn't someone new trying to figure out how to play, it was 100% intentional griefing. What can I even do there to help them to help me?

Unfortunately there are just some griefers in this game, and healers have tools to grief harder than the other roles. For example, a couple weeks ago while tanking when I got a Tankbuster a bored healer pulled me into everyone else with Rescue. The timing was intentional.

Witholding healing as purposely and obvious as this person is also griefing.

Unfortunately we have some players like the person above who honestly believe that this person was learning (lol), as though if you played enough to unlock sage you wouldn't know that the tank should be healed.

What a ridiculous response to this story. A Sage putting their heal on themselves, watching the tank die, and then using their entire kit only on themselves is a troll.

Excuse me, but YOUR response is ridiculous. What I clearly said is that it was useless to post here that the people in your party are "cretins". If you encounter behaviour that isn't helping you, you have 4 choices- help the person (if you can) , put up with it, leave, or kick them.

Personally I would prefer to try to help someone before choosing the other options, as I have benefited personally from other players helping me (and I'm sure will do so in future) , but you do you.

That person was a cretin. Why should we coddle griefers like this? It's what results in people playing terribly and no one being able to say a thing about it. Sorry not sorry.

You have got to be kidding, "healers have tools to grief harder than the other roles", this is coming from someone with a tank at level 90? I mean this discussion is pointless, anyone can come up with stories, but that is just wrong.

Tank's can't rescue tankbusters into an entire raid. Can they manually try to run into the raid? Sure. I mean you can just move away from them. But they can't yank other people into deaths, against their will, like Rescue can. I've seen Rescue used to troll more than any other instance of trolling in this game.

Tanks can what....just not use their stance? That may work once before the dps and ehaler just wait for them to turn it on.

There are plenty of people who are unhappy with the current state of the healer jobs, partake in the strike discussions but also queue into duties as healer. Some of them to cut the insane DPS queue times, some to do stupid shit because "the game doesn't need healers and it's ez anyway so it's whatever lmao." It's unfortunate, but it is what it is. We can't control everyone taking part in this or sharing the sentiment to act the same way.



Then do tell; How could have I helped a person intentionally griefing?

Do tell, how many years have you been playing this game? How many parties have you joined? Here are some helpful options if you haven't found them yet https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/game_...ght%20players.

it feels like 90% of the time I get a healer who is so fed up with the game and has decided to make it everyone else's problem.

Also, what is this current trend of SCHs not having their fairy out?

Good chance your healers just sucked TBH, most of us on here are not even queueing as healers and honestly we dont want to disrupt anybodies game play. As for the fairy they probly forgot or they just ate their fairy for stacks.

I had dinner earlier...

[IDontPetLalas]

Allow me to introduce you to this wonderful ability called Rescue and how funny it is to use to pull people to their deaths as a goof and a gag. It's been happening since its introduction. It's nothing new and you refusing to believe anyone would use it as a tool to grief does not make it any less of a tool to grief.



I'm starting to believe you were the SGE I talked about.

Given your lack of reading comprehension, since I have not stated anywhere that no one has ever done so, it's pointless to waste any more time here.

Go ahead and believe whatever your imagination leads you to believe,*shrug* if it helps to deal with it should it happen to you in future.
