More Breaking of Dragoon Stereotypes

[Lewtskie]

HEY! That floor it pretty dangerous! Someone has to tank it or else the party will wipe! And we don't want that now do we?!

Oh my god, you reminded me of the the floor enemies in one of the older Ultima games. The third one, in the final area you would have encounters with the floor, like literally the floor would attack you and would beat the living crap out of you.

Can't wait to see the third installment thread in this series: "Even More Further Mega Ultra Awesome Breaking of Dragoon Stereotypes!" /sarcasm

Please cut the crap dude... player commendations prove nothing.

Yeah except their not lol in 14. Stop living in the past

The loldrg was still strong with FFXIV right up until their jump animations were shortened. The lengthy animation lock used to make DRG eat more aoe's than anyone has any business doing, hence loldrg 2: Electric Boogaloo. And then you have my static leader, who has been known to Elusive Jump into the arena wall in T13 trying to get fancy placing Earthshakers. :3

You are aware that if that was the case, that they could have just as easily chose not to give a commendation, right? You know that commendations are optional. They chose to give me a commendation.

To be fair, last night I queued in a premade with six friends for Shiva X. We commended a bard that spent half the fight on the floor and a monk that got himself frozen. We tend to just give out comms unless someone was a complete asshole.

LOLDRG is a joke, OP, please just get over it. It isn't going away. Basically every MMO has an LOLDERP class or race and it usually stays around forever.

Though, quite honestly, you're probably hurting yourself with these threads. If I was on your data center and I got you in a party and I knew you for posting these "OMG GAIZ. I GOT COMCOMS. LOOK AT ME. I'M GUD AND SPECIAL AND NOT A LOLDRG" threads. I'd just... not commend you for the sake of not feeding your ego.

We have a Dragoon in our FC who survives raid wipe moves (most times) and seems to dodge attacks when vitally needed @_@

[Kikoten]

Could someone remind me what exactly Player Commendations are for?

Do they influence the Roulette in some way, picking people with higher commendations over people with lower ones, thus giving them more Duty Finder privilege?

Are they going to be currency one day?

Do they really measure someone's skill? How accurately?

LOLDRG is a joke, OP, please just get over it. It isn't going away.

To be fair, I didn't even know it was still a thing. I haven't encountered someone in game who has called a DRG "LOLDRG" (or equivalent of) in well over a year O.o.

Seems this thread is doing more to revive old stereotypes than to diminish.

Ii have proudly been a loldrg from XI's NA release! The best part is seeing the loldrg jokes, then not screwing up while those making the jokes die to stupid stuff. Good times.

Snip.

I don't think anyone actually goes out and calls anyone anything. In most parties, people don't usually say... well, anything. Most people try to avoid saying anything rude in fear of being kicked (in a 4 man, you only need 2 people to hit yes). However, that doesn't mean they're not saying anything in FC or a LS. I'm incredibly guilty for being harsh on my pug tanks, LOL.

I judge by tells over comms specifically b/c I, and many others, give them out just for being sociable. XD

Actually got a tell when I did Turn 1 just to try it out and get a feel on it for not dying on the boss and accurately handling mechanics despite first-timerism.

There is no true DRG hatred.
