Not fast enough they must pop in less than a second wheres your ambition I kid. I shirked onto someone once myself thankfully they didnt seem to notice cause I hit that AoE Provoke the second I realised that I did that.upside appearently the freak boss spin into the healer not casting was enough to get them to do things after that I never seen someone as on top of sheilds as they were after that. so it worked I guess I commed the other healer and ran for the exit like I was on fire when we finally dropped omega (my first time on 03 tanking)

In order to collect some memo i run The Ghimlyt Dark. We run to the last boss without trouble, except on the first boss when nobody stack with me and the BLM and we die cause no heals.
So, the last boss start, everything is ok.... and i don't know why the heal is dead. The Blm follow pretty quick, the tank is very low, and i'm healing as much as i can with bloodbath, potion and second wind... And we put her down but the tank die because of the AOE they put before her spécial attack. So it's only me Vs the duo and... DRG win ! It was very close, like 3 sec before the end of the cast but i do it !

Sorry guys, no floortanking today !!

Ah, here's some good old Sirensong ilevel madness again.
Got a level 63 Samurai whose gear includes:
mainly i235 PvP left side
a level 55 hat
a level 50 i110 ring
and to top it all off, i190 Ravana weapon.
They got gear drops throughout the dungeon, but no equipping it.

They had about 70% of the HP the Dragoon had. Was fully relying on my shields to survive anything, what with also standing in AoEs.
Needless to say, the dungeon took a while.

And now for a Burn expert. Dragoon and Warrior with i320 weapons and some other gear of the same level. No new people.
Things went fine otherwise (though I needed way more cures than usual), until we got to the final boss.
WAR does not mitigate the tank buster and just goes splat. I would have had about 0.8 seconds to Bene him between the hit and the DoT killing him. I rez him. DRG & SMN start tanking. DRG gets hit by something that freezes+vulns him, and he goes splat. Boss goes into the add phase. No rez help from the SMN (my Swift still on CD), big AoE gets to cover the whole arena. Ouch. I somehow heal through, and thankfully the line breath goes on me and not the DRG, since I can survive it. Now it's just heal spam from me until divebombs. DRG stands in both, just jiggling back and forth. DRG loses 80% HP from the Touchdown and Rime Wreaths, and is of course targeted by the line. Just goes splat through Benison.
Boss dies, WAR bails immediately, I get one comm for hard carrying the entire party. And seemed like it might have been from the summoner who was doing decent sans total lack of Resurrect and Diversion. *sigh*

That hard carry... So how's your back feeling after that? Need aspirin?

And now for a Burn expert.

Had a run last night on my PLD, masspulls went fine, had a wipe on the final boss last night because of some bullshit where when I was rezed (and through Rez immunity by the look of it...i ended up Mist encased IMMEDIATELY after being rez, (died to bad aoe spread and i didn't hit hallowed fast enough...fuck me.)) Plus because of said bad aoe spread it was annoying to position the mist dragon first round. Got him the second time around and i got me all three comms, save the dragoon jumping on (I think it was the dragoon) now imaginary corpse of the boss saying 'Fuck you dragon'. That moment when you get comms despite a wipe. feelsgoodman.

Waaaat.

This sounds hilarious and I would have been laughing my butt off, especially if I was the healer. What the hell is wrong with people kicking someone over something like this?

I'm cackling, i would have thought that was hilarious if i were the healer.

Currently in a Prae run because I need tomes because Shire gear because baby story alt because I hate my life.

First of all, I don't care who I'm running with, I refuse to sprint to get to the cutscene gates. Sorry, I just will not play that game.

Most importantly however, is my co-healer.

Medica 2 before the big pull to the second warp point. (Uh-oh! Dassa bad idea!!) Now they're getting the crap beat out of them by a bunch of angry Garloons. You know what they do? You wanna know their big brain solution to this?

Pop a swiftcast to use on a regen on themselves. :3

Edit: They heal people at like 95%. Stood in front of Gaius and just kept casting protect until they decided to pull with an aero.

Also our DPS is so monstrously low that for the first time ever, I saw Gaius teleport and poop out another blue lightning aoe to stand in. Literally have never seen that, not even the very first time I ran this like. Just after they had initiated the no-skip cutscene stuff for Prae and Castrum.

Edit 2: They use Lucid Dreaming at full MP, and told everyone to "stop being afk" before the white light buffs you so you can actually damage Ultima the first time you fight it.

Oh dear god NO!

Also, people still pre-cast Medica II? Damn.

These are the type of people to argue that it SOMEHOW reduces the amount of healing they need to do. As if any boss uses a Group-wide AoE within the first 30 seconds.

...

And they'd heal the party if this happened anyway.
