Crystal Tower Horror Stories

[Zaels]

Healer dropped from my party. I was on a DPS.

After waiting quite awhile, including several wipes from Behemoth because the only healer left in my party was undergeared and my party's two tanks were stuck having to tank behemoth and giants (because the other four tanks that had a full set of healers were lazy), I left on my DPS switched accounts and tried to queue in progress on my well-geared scholar.

It didn't let me in. My premade that was still in there told me the healer still hasn't been replaced but the Duty Finder queue never matched me into a run :\

Joined an ongoing party with nobody... some people like me started to join with no idea what happened to people before.... very weird

Also about 30 requeuing... thanks tanks...

And yes, they still need to do something about the tanks that keep withdrawing from in-progress runs. They are clearly trying to abuse the system to get a free ride to the end of the dungeon with no risk/repercussions to themselves at the expense of annoying just about every other class trying to queue for CT.

What is your worst CT run in recent memory?

Worst run was not getting past the first trash group.

Worst run was not getting past the first trash group.

Same.

All tanks other than myself were new so they pull Valefors into the group. I explained what to do after first wipe, however same thing happened second time. Third attempt I tanked one of them outside group, however I died because healers didn't heal me. My friend criticized the healers asking why they didn't heal me and he ended up being vote kicked. So I left as well.

Next CT group we one shotted everything.

A run w/o drama

My biggest CT horror story is Onion this Onion that Onion here and everywhere.

Six CT runs later still not a single royal drop.

Thanks, SE.

One CT run, had a terrible tank who wanted to MT everything, and when it came to the platform bits, where you have to stand on the platforms for the other groups? Well, our tank was like, "I'll take adds this time!" and he did it so, so bad... we got cleaved, hit by AoEs, then he was like, "Why is everyone dying?" and we were like, "Because we're getting continuously wiped out by AoEs and tail swipes!", so we wiped, cue Alliance B and C like "GOOD WORK A" "AWESOME JOB A"... this went on a few times, even the other tank offered to take adds but then the other tank wouldn't go to boss, and it was just mayhem. :|

My group was doing piss poor damage. Atomos and bomb demons took a comically long time to kill. I was trying to figure out why. I mean, everyone was wearing AF2/Coil armors why the hell...*inspects entire team* ...so...so every one of you jackasses are wearing lv 49 jewelry in every slot to spiritbond farm. Awesome.

Wiping in the very first room because tanking and positioning is apparently the hardest thing in the game
