Oof did kefka the first time today

Greeted random group mates, nobody greets back.
So we start, after some minutes we wipe, try again, wipe, try again, wipe... after that like half of the raid group left, there was a mentor too but she didnt like try to explain stuff to us and was one of the people who left .

We get some new people and try again, we wipe once and after that finish it easily, some of us died but no too many and we beat it.

I didnt get the people who left after the wipes, I mean it could have been prevent if like only one person explained stuff but people have choosen to be silent .

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Thats unfortunately a common occurrence in this game. I ran Orbonne Monastery a couple days ago. The DPS was really slow during the whole raid but we didnt wipe on ANYTHING. Then we get to Thunder God, we wipe on his add phase, then people in the other alliance say stuff like “Im so done with you people”. Then they tried multiple times to vote abandon. Rejected each time. And then everyone just started leaving.

got pug party on lvl 71 dungeon (keep forgetting the name zzz)

decent party, good tank, good dps, pretty chatty party too. then someone talk about steam summer sale and ask what they bought so far? one guy said "didnt buy anything, gonna keep my money for upcoming EDF5 this 11th"

then everyone (me too) is like "shit you play EDF too?" "you too?" then dungeon progress get 50% slower because we keep talking about this EDF5 and chanting EDF nonstop

"EDDDFFFFF"
"cmon guys we are in FF14 now"
"you kidding right? EORZEAN Defense Force!!!!"
everyone: *mindblown.gif*

that was amazing lol

A quick message from someone who is enjoying the Dark Knight changes. This goes out to the majority of the other Dark Knights that are already in Shadowbringers.

BLACKEST NIGHT IS NOT YOUR ONLY BLOODY COOLDOWN.

I've come across a lot of Dark Knights and about 50% of them only use TBN as their only cooldown. No Shadow Wall. No Rampart. No Blood Weapon. No Delirium. No Reprisal. Hell... not even Living Dead.

Just Blackest Night.

Did anybody ask? Alot of people won't volunteer info because of possible toxic reactions.

its funny because i just encounter DRK who is the opposite of yours

he use rampart and shadow wall, but keep forgetting TBN

not helping too when he also keep forgetting that TBN only has 15s CD, he keep thinking it has more or less CD with rampart and shadow wall lol

i can understand if it 7th or so wipes because i probably do the same too, but yeah if it 1st or 2nd wipe, geez give some chance people

THIS. I was in a run when I was helping people by telling them how the fight worked. "Hey dont stand there with the boss, it coveres the only spot we will be safe" and he responds with "You dont pay my sub, so I will do what I want" and then it wiped the raid.

So, I've been spamming Doma Castle to level my dancer. On this particular run, the tank chose to pull the colossus near the beginning all the way to the first boss. Obviously it was too much, and we wiped. I had all of my Fourfold Feathers ready for the boss, too, sadly.

When I mentioned it, the healer said I should have used them. I was saving them for the boss and said the boss pulled too much. The tank replied, "Because I'm not a p*ssy." After the requisite five minutes were up, we vote-kicked the tank. The healer told us to have fun waiting in the queue again and left. Not one minute later, a new tank and healer showed up.

I was using the Ruby Tide ring of aiming and windfire wheels, and Yanxian everything else (so literally just dungeon gear). I don't know or care about the black mage's level or gear, no one needs to be that rude.

Had a GNB tank in roulette the other day as a healer in one of the 60-70 dungeons pulling wall-to-wall and never used a single CD. :'( Guess he didn't want to give me any time at all to DPS, lol.

I have been having this a lot in the new dungeons lately. I'm trying to relearn SCH after the new AST stopped cutting it for me. I haven't played SCH for a few months, and thought I would give it a go after the update - but every time I see a GNB I'm just ready for hell. In level 60 leveling dungeons I have GNBs pulling wall-to-wall without a single cooldown. In the new 5.0 dungeons it seems to be the same.

Snip.

Just wow. Our Primal is usually so well-behaved, too. My heart goes out to you.
