Why do you save your LB?

[zaviermhigo]

Well if you are learning to just bust your LB at any time, you will have to UNLEARN that later on. If you are doing EX primals, of T4 of coil, and you wasted our lb just whenever it filled, I'd kick you. Had a person do that in my coil run the other day as a troll, I will just assume you are troll that actually knows the fight mechanics and chooses to annoy people, instead of thinking you just didn't learn to save your LB until the party said so. There are strategic reason to use LB at certain times, push a mob into certain phases, etc. So if its some trash content, and you are doing well on dps sure, LB whenever. But in ACTUAL endgame, past HM primals, please wait, usually you party will talk strategy and tell you when to LB, or who should LB. If you're on mnk and you LB, when it was meant to be a BLM those are two totally different LB, one could one shot a lesser mob, while the other could take a lot of dmg off of a lot of mobs, there is a reason why you wait. I just can't even believe this thread. There are a lot of fights you can get through without a lb, don't get me wrong, many a time had a melee/magic dps dead during titan heart phase, and you had to dps is down fast, have a healer in cleric w/e, but what I'm saying is don't get into the habit of just pressing LB when you have it, make sure you ask before, make sure its ok to just randomly press it. Or else you'll just see yourself kicked as people will think you are incapable of waiting. Its the habit that bothers me more than the reason behind it, if you get into this habit, you're going to be the one I'm yelling at in harder content where we did actually need the LB cause we're a lil under geared, think t6. After a while you don't need it, and do it without it, but its nice to have, and I don't want some guy being selfish thinking he should lb at the two mark cause its full >< new players shouldn't be taught this, its ok for old experienced ones to think it if that makes sense, we've usually done the fight a few times, can tell within first 5 minutes dps strength etc etc. New player doing this seems like....spoiled brat kid who is too selfish to think about anyone else.

TLDR: Its ok for low level trash content, but in real endgame EX primals and Coil, don't expect to do that, I would kick you for it, with good reason, there are reasons to talk about the LB, who should use it, and when. I really don't think anyone's good enough to not use a LB through t5 c'mon, lets not kid, so lets not get new players use to just LB all the time. IF you're with FC that's chill do w/e you've agreed on. But with random players (pugs), please don't do this, that's just bad practice for later. Now if you know "here is where someone should LB in this fight" and no one does, PLEASE DO, tank or healer shouldn't always have to call LB to you guys. Just old experienced players, that are clearing all content, its ok for you to think this. NEW PLAYERS: it is not ok for you to think this.
