Great party last night!

[nasomi]

See if this counts as a major mistake? Common: someone in party gets excited and runs up to a random mob, linking 3 others with 2 already engaged. We all survive with little difficulty. CON PGL PGL GLA Lv.21-24 fighting Lv.25-29 crabs. Imagine you did that in XI. You'd have a dead tank, main healer, and one very dead MNK.

No one ran up to anything, mobs spawned on us. This isn't FFXI either, it's FFXIV. Notice the V on the end. That means it's not the same as FFXI. And we had a dead healer, with the THM struggling, I was using hp moves, the tank was in pure defence mode, and we made it through. Even if we died, it was still exciting and fun, but more exciting and fun because we lived. But we lived as a result of people knowing what they were doing and performing calculated tasks, not just mashing the x button to hit hte mob faster or heal faster.

Mine was an actual event that I was giving as an example. Notice the "We all survive..", and the denotation of jobs in party.

While this is not Directly related to how sp partys work now. For the first time i feel like MRD can work as intended with the new claim system. I have hit up the strongholds a couple times now, And i feel like I am able to run on all cylinders with out having to hold back now.

Its beautiful, bordering on orgasmic.

Not entirely. I was blasting through mobs, MRD are DPS machines now, AND hate machines. I had to hold back to avoid taking hate from the tank. When I'd grab an add and hold it while the GLD, PUG, and ARC worked on the main mob, I'd kill mine in the time they killed theirs, if not faster, while not needing the CON to heal me. I dont' know if it was gear related or what, but I felt like a DPS monster. However I was using skills from every melee class as I have them all leveled to 10+ to get their basic skills.

But yeah, I getcha

We do sometimes. But we know that death is part of the game. And if there's no risk of death, it's not really fun.

Well, that's probably more accurate. And what more, death really carries much less of a consequence now that equipment has to go to zero before it loses stats.
