    For low level content I can at least understand people not moving out of AoEs. Barring bombs, basically everything up to Titan (Normal) isn't actually that dangerous. I've tutored many new players in my FC through content, and so many of them have problems with Titan, half of which come from the fact they haven't developped actual dodging reflexes yet and it's the first time the game seriously punishes not having them. Even for Ifrit's eruptions it's like 70% of your HP at max and unless your healer is asleep at the wheel you'll be healed right back up by the next one. Hell, I don't even think many low level players even realise how much damage they're taking because it can be healed off so easily.

    By the high level content, if there's not an effort being made though, that's just unfortunate. Tried and failed is fine; human error is inevitable even in the best. Didn't even try = ????

    Also, re healers: Don't assume everyone has swiftcast (or that it's off cooldown). And in a fight like Titan HM, sometimes it is better for the healer to just give up on healing an ally who keeps eating AoEs and instead focus on people that demonstrate the skill to actually stay on their feet; cruel as it sounds.

    All that said, I suspect this is just a venting thread.
