Today I died in a dungeon because the Tank tuned off stance cuz they didn't want to take damage.

Sometimes roulette can be so tiring...

The other day did the Jeuno raid...was fine until a summoner from the alliance decided to run with me as I tried to take my marker to the wall away from players...he ran with his onto mine lol and it killed us both.

I am not elitist in any shape or form but being in there surely you need to know that a big red circle under your feet means get out of the way of others and wait for it to resolve I think he thought it was a stack marker >.<

That as often as not is a lag thing in getting the other player's position updates from the server, the other player may have been seeing themselves run in front and you chasing him. The annoying thing is that the moment you realize that is happening, you have to blind-guess if you should change direction, or if the other player will have reached the same conclusion at similar reaction time, and may be reversing direction too.

Frontline on new year's eve had a couple of light parties of them who had clearly been drinking heavily. Swear I heard "wah...hic!"

To the dancer on my server that I just had in Aglaia:

I politely asked you if you wanted to Tech Step first or second, you never replied to me but used Tech Step first. I bent over backwards the whole dang run to make sure our Tech Steps wouldn't overwrite. Overwriting another Tech Step with your own is still a major no-no, something you should understand at 100.

But on the last boss you were purposefully letting yours drift a lot to the point where mine was up and you would overwrite mine EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. You refused to politely wait until the buff ran out so we wouldn't waste buffs, since I'm guessing you got super offended by me just trying to level dancer simply existing in your alliance run.

I hope you step on a fat roach while trying to get to the bathroom at 2 am.

Sincerely,

One very disappointed dancer who just wanted to coordinate Tech Step with you.

It's funny when they come up to me and "wah," and I give them the "what the hell is wrong with you!?" Look.

You're a saint among Lala's.

I'll probably get flak for this, but, while I admire your dedication, as someone who has played mostly DNC over the past several months, if I'm in a group with another DNC, I will not pay the slightest bit of attention to what they're doing and will make zero effort to coordinate with them. There is no content in the game where you would end up with two DNCs in which the time saved due to smart coordinating would be more than a handful of seconds, and, though I haven't done the math, I would not be remotely surprised if you actually lose group DPS because one DNC isn't using their burst rotation during two-minute windows. There's just no meaningful reward for the effort.
