Kicked from raid team due to colorblind

[Invision]

It seems my final coil days are over. Tethers on T11 are a huge problem for me due to red and green color blindness, they are impossible for me to distinguish fast enough and it causes wipes. This has pisses off my team which led them to kick me.

This also was a issue with other fights but I managed to get through or have another player tell me what color I had, this was not the case for t11 as they cared more about loot than helping me out. Could make life easier by making tethers yellow, or white, but green and red is a no go.

So my options are limited and may even have to quit the game as very few people are willing to help someone like me.

You know, you'd think they'd have learned from the Garuda tethers.

If we do not have an option for color blindness we should petition for one.

I know in World of Warcraft you can turn on an option for that as one of my friends IRL is color blind and still plays that MMO.

Well, to be honest, your teammates are assholes. I don't see the issue in calling out the tethers. I do believe that the color options should be better adjusted for handicapped individuals though.

The tethers also look somewhat different. The red and green ones appear a little thinner and are darker.(At least for me they look that way). The other one seems flatter.

If you can't tell which color is it, just look at its animation. Blue one is a single fat line, green/red are two lines.

Typically with tethers you are always paired with the same person, at least in melee range I am always paired with our DRG unless she is dead. I do not see why your partner could not call out for you. For example "<insert name> go to A/B/C>". Not that difficult. Quite a dumb reason to kick someone.

I haven't cleared T10 yet, so I'm not familiar with the fight, but that's really unfortunate.

That bein said, Not bein able to clear 11 while it's still current progression isn't necessarily a reason to quit the game. I've bee too busy IRL to dedicate time to a raid static, and I've realized the farther I fall behind in RAID progression, the more OK I am with it. I do mostly DoL/DoH at the moment. I don't know how far you ae in the relic/zodiac quest, but I image you don't have ever Zodiak weapon + all 11 Luci's + pushing T11 XD

the good part about not doing it when i's RAID progression, is that RAID progression is prett close to being synonymous with asshole hehe. if ou have to do it NOW, then you need to learn patience. If you need people to work wit you, you should also work with other people who might require more patience. Eventually, you'll get it done.

The tethers in T11 always pair a tank with another tank and a melee with another melee, as long as it's possible. And if memory serves me right, a ranged DD and a healer are always paired together, you never have 2 ranged DDs or both healers paired together, as long as party composition allows it, or no one is dead.

SE has been relatively accommodating to people with disabilities such as colorblind and changing things like the tethers on Garuda - I'm sure if people brought up the issues the dev team will look into it.

I agree it should be changed, but throwing the "i'm going to quit the game" just because something doesn't work out for you is just low.
