DPS corner of Shame

[MidlouLii]

There's a BRD in our static that did that a couple times. We ribbed him about it for a few weeks. I think he took it off his bar until we were done clearing T5 for our FC.

First time I did Titan back in ARR, AOE circle popped so I did what i normally did in Oh shit moments... and repelling shotted


Myself off the cliff and let my FC carry me.


It was one of those moments of "Oh yeah... that was dumb. GG"

[Jim_Berry]

My DPS corner of shame is...

- Setting up {Huton}, but using {Mutilate} BEFORE casting the {Ninjutsu}.

- Using {Life Surge} before {Full Thrust} is ready for combo.

- Using {Power Surge} then {Ring of Thorns}.

- Using {Blood for Blood} while mob is casting a big attack.

- Using {Invigorate} after using {Wide Volley} two times.

[AskaRay]

- Using {Blood for Blood} while mob is casting a big attack.

All the time, oh my god

-button press- "Hell yeah, lots of damage-" -boss prepares super hit- "Shit, wait, no"

[Skeith-Adeline]

Oh man.

In T12, I had Brand of Purgatory and was subsequently targeted by Blue Fire (the large circular AoE). I panicked for some odd reason and used my Aetherial Manipulation macro to a healer, who died from my passing of the flame. It was... hilarious.


Edit: A friend of mine (drg) accidentally Tab Targeted Phoenix during the Bennu Add phase, and used Jump. A dead body rained from above lol

[Waliel]

The latest one was in T13. Depending on Megaflare floor thingies, I would sometimes do a last second Aetherial Manipulation to get to the stack and get occasionally comments like, "WTF, Waliel, that manipulation," to which I respond with, "I know what I'm doing." Last time I responded with that, I would misstime the next manipulation, the missile hits me while I'm mid-flight on top of a healer -- who was about exactly halfway through my path to the group, well away from the stack and my beginning position -- and the missile kills both me and the healer. I didn't even know it was possible to do that.

Another thing with manipulation happened in T11. I'm standing in the side, so I can do just a small sidestep to dodge the gas. I get the stack beam for missiles and manipulate myself to a wrong target by accident, which makes me go straight through Kaliya and I get a stack. I get super confused by what just happened, make the most epic "WHAT?!" on TeamSpeak which scares everyone, and I run back into Barofield in my confusion. I die inside Kaliya to the missile solo, and everything just goes downhill from there, because people were laughing at my yell and what I did and couldn't do anything. I hear one of our tanks still has nightmares about that yell.

[Viar]

- Activating Battle Voice 'cuz it's too close to my AoE skills.

- Dropping a Flaming Arrow when the boss's about to jump. Most of the time, though, tanks just move from Flaming Arrow for some reason...

- Repelling Shot out of the Level Sync Fate x.x

- Forgetting to switch off Foe Requiem...

- Life Surge on the Jump. Yeah...

[cgbspender]

It was against Mog Ex, which I usually run as a Whm. That time, I went with FC friends, to help for a clear as a monk. At the end, when he started casted Memento, I spammed by Limit break ro realize just as we were being killed, that I had been spamming my "Fists of Fire" on and off instead.

[Arkenne]

So having a Zeta can be cool and all... but not so much on LotA, lemme tell you...

This morning I finally managed to get into CT1, after 4 days of failed attempts (to get in). I got lucky since both tanks were wielding ilvl 135 weapons, and they were WARs so yay for that.

Oddly enough, at the Behe fight, I tanked 2 of the 3 Iron Giants... and as a NIN I go "wtf D:?! Lets pop a DEF CD!!" *B4B* "... OK, that was not very smart". A WAR came to my rescue but a tower was lost D:

[Crescent_Dusk]

I tried to shoulder tackle to the sphere construct in T11 but as the tank was moving it around the trajectory changed when the skill activated and I shoulder tackled into the death wall.

[LunaHoshino]

Accidental Elusive Jump into the death wall in T9. The best part was the conversation that happened on TS after I did it:
"Luna, did you just Elusive Jump into the wall?"
"... maaaaaaybe?"
"God, stop being such a Dragoon."
