Crystal Tower Horror Stories

[Pseudopsia]

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.

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

Oh, ghod, not 'Statement' 'Query' guy again...

This made me LOL so hard xD

Ive actually got a good story. I was running in a PF PuG with some FC mates and randoms. I believe we were group B. When we got to KB we wiped and my FC mate got ragged on by group A because they wanted to blame my mate for not tanking the Iron Giant properly (utter bullsh*t). During our second attempt, nearly the entirety of group A wipe on KB's Meteor. While we, group B, and whatever was left of goup C held the raid together for like 10 mins until group A's healers got a chance to LB3.

Needless to say, some major hazing ensued xD

It was actually yesterday, Tuesday Feb 4th. We made it to 5 skeletons stacked together on Bone Dragon because 2 off tanks decided to keep most of them in the middle circle. Later on that run we wiped on Atomos several times because 2 groups were lacking in range DD (we had 7 dragoons out of 12 DDs... I call it the onion effect).

Story time!
1) In our group there was someone that went "Leroy Jenkins style" into every fight.
2 Wipes to Skel Dragon. Everything else went smooth until KB. We voted him out shortely afterwards.

2) The most awkward. Our Group had a Tank, that responded to every troll harassement with a not very friendly Phrase, always the same phrase. Problem was C was 8/8 Trolls. People proceeded to drop because of them. Than some C guys dropped to, and qued back in and suddenly we had one of the trolls in Group A and B. Some people have to much free time.

3) We had a group, I think 6/8 Premade with 2 Tanks in spiritbind gear 3 Dragoons in spiritbind 1 healer in spirit bind. They wanted seriously to MT KB and Giant. But died veeery fast. Their healers didn't heal any other tank but their own, and when hiding from meteor they chose the only comet with a cyclone behind it. Same group they place a comet behind a tower and somehow destroyed all other comets ... what the hell was going on

I joined an in-progress que only to find that the other 23 players in the alliance are missing and the dungeon list was still at bone dragon.

Got voted kicked in avg ilv51 gears.....a lot
nothing special other than that, I have very very low expectation when I join a CT run.
