I know when to use LB, thanks

[AmandaHuggenkiss]

Who reads party chat these days anyway?

[Gardes]

99% of the time

So yes, I -in fact- do know better when to LB than the person telling me to.

Nah.

Nah.

[Elvin]

you trust the person playing.

This makes me think that you haven't done so much dungeons, or you'll know that you can't trust anyone playing

And yeah, you don't need lbs. That's why sometime I remember to the DPS that lb's do exist. Cause most of them don't use them and let them go to waste.

HAHA This! I hate it in Leviathan EX when people are like "LB". I've done this fight a good number of times, I know when the caster LB is needed. Half the time I'm positioning the LB and they're all like "LB LB LB" in chat. Have faith in me guys, have faith.

The more obnoxious thing is that in 90% of all cases, you are already casting the LB.
Apparently they need to make the LB animation even more flashy (maybe change the color of the LB bar while casting or something like that).

Maybe some tanks/healers dont realize that it can take up to 10 seconds from button press to dmg dealt.

In early dungeons especially, people don't even know that limit break is shared between the party. The amount of times I've seen a tank or healer use LB1 on one trash mob for no reason whatsoever.

Heh, I can understand both sides. I main MNK, and use DRG as my tertiary job (go figure), and it's easy to feel mildly patronised when someone's screeching at you to use it when you already are - or worse still when you know it'd be a bad time to use it (Leviathan's about to dive, repelling cannons, weight of the land etc). But at the same time, especially in 4-man dungeons, some DPS do seem to wait way too long before using it - as if it has to be used as late in the fight as possible or something (and some genuinely do just forget). When you're on the last boss of a dungeon, and that 2nd LB bar isn't going to fill by the end of the fight but the wait continues...

So I can understand people calling it out, and I can also understand DPS who know what they're doing feeling condescended by it...should non-dps be so trusting of everyone? Perhaps not...when I'm playing heal/tank I usually give them a bit of time when a LB should be used (if time can be afforded), and if it's still sitting there being wasted then I'll find myself the one calling out for its use :P

As long as people don't get hostile about it I just take it in stride, and if there was a reason for me holding back I'd explain afterwards.

With all the comments here (From tanks and healers, surprise) that DPS players are all so bad, I wouldn't be surprised to hear that they're doing it to you lot out of spite.

[Alkimi]

Are YOU aware of how many tanks and healers suck?

The ration of bad dps to good ones is much higher. Do you know how rare good MNKs and DRGs are? You almost never see them in DF.

[Lunavi]

Do you know how many bad DPS's there are? o.O Honestly, you HAVE to tell the majority of DRGs/MNKs when to use LB as they for some reason want it to be the finishing blow :S Just use it already, there is usually no point in waiting until it kills the boss. Better have it deal more damage :P
