Tales from Duty Finder: Some make you laugh, some make you cry. Let's vent.

Doing Sohm Al just now I ran into a SMN who would not use Ruin, Bio, Bio II or Miasma. The only spells he ever cast were Shadowflare, Painflare, and occasionally Ruin II or Ruin III. When asked if there was any particular reason he wasn't casting these spells he listed the spells he was casting and said the others were "level locked". He meant Tri-disaster was locked due to level sync. Even after being told he could still cast his DoTs normally and being requested to multiple times, he refused to. I don't even understand..

I was in a Aurum Vale run last night with a 56 WHM who was not using esuna or regen. Just cure with an occasional cure 2 and very very rare medica. Many, many, many wipes.

I was doing a Vault run leveling my dragoon and I was consistently ripping off hate from the Warrior tank. I brought it up and he told me to stop popping my cooldowns so he can grab aggro. My mind just kinda blanked from that statement.

Also, that a Warrior tank was having aggro issues in a level synced dungeon.

If the sync takes away butcher's block, yeah there will be issues because it also means no defiance. Other than that, nope.

THISSSSSSSSSSSSSS. I hate it when I'm paired with another BLM that rides umbral ice >.<

[AskaRay]

Every time I accidentally rip hate off the tank when I'm healing...and I run up to them with mob in tow...and they don't take the mob back

Like why. Accident. Take your monster

Was doing the Aery as a healer. DPS seemed a little slow up to the first boss but no big deal right? Wrong. First boss took so long to kill that we ran out of lightning spires. Needless to say I left that group.

I had a BLM in Dusk Vigil which rotation was something like this:

Blizzard 3, Blizzard 3, Fire 1, Fire 3, Blizzard 3, Blizzard 3, Fire 3, Fire 3, Blizzard. Completely chaotic! Not even a thunder dot. I really didn't bother to stop him and explain the rotation because, based on the way he was playing A) He was not going to listen B) He was not going to correct his rotation in 1 run C) I really don't bother anymore in DF... I just do my thing, everything's good with everybody and leave the duty upon completion.

I also had a SMN that never used Bane. I was on SCH. I just asked out of curiosity why he was not using Bane with his dots. He said "I'm tired". So, he started to use it but... without any dot to spread. .-.

And the daily dosis of tanks that won't use a CD like ever.

Running as a DPS in Duty Finder. Tank and Healer are a pair. Healer decides to afk first thing for 6-7 minutes. /sigh

[AriaEnia]

Had a tank who used a parser in fractal and called the healer and one of the dps out because their dps didn't satisfied him. My dps was somewhat satisfied him so I didn't get called out, but I had to leave anyway because it was getting ugly.
