oh wow

"Kind of made up" - completely unrealistic and irrelevant, I think are the words you're looking for. The irony of you accusing someone else of exaggeration...

As I said before. Between asking for the raise, explaining, being denied the raise, respawning back, running back to the group and buffs - it's just the same amount of time, if not more, only we could have actually progressed further had they ressed in the first place. If someone asks for a raise, don't be petty and just do it; even a hardcast raise is 7 seconds at most. As for "no healer would waste SC" - what are you waiting for, an S rank to suddenly appear? Your reflexes to give out? It's a 60 second cooldown. And any tank worth their salt can keep aggro with weakness.

I was asking for a raise until I was kicked, which wasn't terribly long after. The time was already wasted from when it became apparent I was waiting/ their subsequent refusal, whether or not I respawned.

Hmm. Though I probably might agree with you that the healer should have given you a raise when you asked for it (even after a little while) this is how I would have handled the situation.
Me: Hey! I bit the dust. Can I get a rez pls!
Healer: Nha, just respawn. You wont get weakness.
Me: Mmmm. mk

Done.

Nobody would have gotten kicked, nobody would have gotten their feelings hurt. Would have also been no big deal if we were only talking a couple of minuets of time lost.

Have to say I disagree with your sentiment. People do DR/DF to level- if I wanted a quick clear just for the weekly book then I would have chosen to do it through PF. People are always putting up parties just to do a speed/unsynced clear for this stuff. I personally wouldn't expect anyone in DR or DF who is doing a dungeon at level to cater to my personal desires for a speed run when it is clear they are doing it to rank up/do storyline/clear map or whatever.

I know it's an excessively long time to go by before replying to this, so sorry.

I think you're misunderstanding something here. I have never seen PF entries for leveling roulette, and even if there were the new weekly does require leveling ROULETTE, which cannot be done unsynced.
That misunderstanding aside, I do agree. I shouldn't expect someone doing the content at-level to cater to the desires of an end-game player looking to speed through outdated stuff for Anima, WT, whatever. As I said, it was a petty complaint made for petty reasons early in the morning.

Was Mt'ing A11 and before Propeller Wind, one DPS gets marked with a prey (that one with the 3 explosion AoE) Some people died along and after it came the Optical Sight with multiple AoE's on the field. Alright everyone died except OT and me, but we died some seconds after.

Then someone said to me that It was my fault and Im making everyone lose time.

Really, I passed out when I readed that for 1 week.

A9, in which I had no idea what was going on but I didn't like it.

The PLD stubbornly stayed in Sword Oath, while the DRK had Grit on but not Darkside. At level 60, this is a huge blaring alarm for me. But if I tried to explain how to put on both Grit and Darkside to every DRK I met in DF, I would never get anything done.

At Faust Z, despite this DRK being reasonably-geared, and despite both SCHs having over 19k HP, the DRK's HP is hopping on a pogo stick. I am not looking forward to the scrap machine.

We wiped once, probably because of low DPS, because predictably enough, the DRK died, and that kicked off a game of Punch The BLM Dead. It's incredible how being dead kills your DPS. The PLD begrudgingly took aggro, but only after a couple of us DPS were dead.

Is it cheaper to continuously ress a tank than to heal them? I have no idea, but I suppose those SCHs were trying to find out.

Either way, I don't know what happened because I just stopped paying attention after I died, in an effort to preserve my sanity. It's always things like these that suck all the willpower and enthusiasm from me.

A game of Punch The BLM Dead.

That's always a fun game... unless you're the BLM. Another fun variant is Punch the DRG Dead.

Nah. We're naturally attracted to everything that wants us dead.
No help required! Get your Lolgoon today at the nearest AoE!

Don't forget Punch the WHM Dead. That ones always fun too.
