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

Queue up alliance roulette and get WoD run as SCH. Cohealer is good because they shared the healing kit and DPS' majority of the fight with me, so we minimized healing and maximized skipping mechanics.
At some point, no one noticed the slimes getting together against the five headed dragon. I noticed the toxic slime (big slime) spawned and the last couple of slimes were trying to get together. I killed the small slimes but no one else noticed the big slime or ignored it altogether, so the entire alliance takes a huge raidwide damage and 10 second silence. I had enough of the 10 second silences of WoD runs so I used my echo drops I prepared for this occasion. Funnily enough, my cohealer did the same thing and removed the silence with their echo drops, so our alliance was just vibing as we shrugged off the damage while the other two alliances were panicking and screaming for 10 seconds. Fun stuff.

That's the most final fantasy thing I've read in this thread so far. Status curing pots in actual use, like some super rare unicorn being sighted every 1000 years.

I usually have echo drops in my inventory. Anyone who runs Palace of the Dead or Heaven on High with any degree of frequency probably does.

Since Palace was a thing, i as well got them. Id literally have all others as well but we dont have this much space...

Every once in while the Duty Finder gives you something crazy. I think this one is pretty self explanatory, so on to the screenshots. Yes, it took more than one to fit it all. Ended up with me being the only original party member by the end and the second healer never said anything except thank you right at the very end.



Healer left immediately after saying "byw."

That is just...I can't even.

Anyone bragging about bans is... obviously lying because there's no way for them to know what actions the moderators took and they don't bother telling you. Most don't even respond back after you report (I had one respond to my report for clarification since the person we reported barely spoke in chat except to call us dumbasses. They had entered the boss room for Calcabrina-- where the dolls spin around and stood in a safe spot while they locked us out. We had just been waiting for one of our party to get out of cutscenes.)

What I don't understand why they didn't just ask if they could get a countdown before the boss rooms instead of immediately going for the ban hammer. That just made them look extremely stupid. :/

Don't get me wrong, I love the f*ck out of nin, it's an amazing job and loved the shit out of it in 11 (even though getting scrolls for them in 11 was an absolute pain in the ass, which often kept me from progressing). But...Twelve above please...please just be more aggressive on nin folks.

Oh I know the pain of that. To this day, even post 75 era FFXI, my nin still sits at lvl 12, and you know why. I didn't have the gil for that.

I have never had a good experience with Brynhildr.

btw, you can't technically "over pull" in the twinning..when it was designed for big pulls..

So i know i joke about(sometimes more then joke about) god complex tanks whenever the wheel of topics spins back to pull density as it always inevitably does around here. But gods forfend if that guy isnt right on the nose. Do as i say, or be banned for 19 months like all the others! And in The Twinning of all places? Such an easy dungeon to go nuts in. He said "Everyone died on hard pulls", anyone wanna bet thats because he stopped playing to type out a complaint or file a harassment report? I know we have players just as bad, but im still glad not to be on crystal to accidentally bump into this particular winner. Anyway, you know you in trouble Mhaeric. You kicked a tank from a run whos only offenses were wasting time and threatening everyone repeatedly. We're gonna miss you while you banned for 19 months.

Either that tank was basically trying to scare anyone out of mass pulling or he's legit convinced that players will get immediately banned without investigation from a report. Gotta say though, I would've just laughed behind the screen so hard and hightail it out of that hell.
