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

The other day I had a Halatali NM run with a healer who was DPSing, two black mages who were Physicking, and they wanted me to let the healer keep aggro and tank (I was the actual tank). That was interesting.

I got Bismark from trials. Should be easy, right? Nope.

We wiped due to not killing the green and blue adds on time. Both tanks started sound uppity. I got a little snooty at them.

Anyways when we get the DKs at Bismark, everyone ran to get on Bismark's back. I stayed on the island since I was asked to heal from there while everyone else got on the back. Anyways, one BLM (we have 2) stayed with me on the island.

So let's call the BLMs Orange and Yellow.

Yellow was the one who stayed with me. Tank yelled at him "YELLOW YOU GET ON BISMARK'S BACK TO DO DPS" but he didn't get on anyways. Anyways, when we get DKs on Bismark again, Yellow stayed in the islnd again. Same tank says "AGAIN, YELLOW! ON BACK!" But nope.

We wiped again anyways. Next thing I know, someone booted out Orange. I clicked no. But I guess half the party besides me, Orange, and my fiance came together and one person who came with him were in que together. Orange asked if he did something wrong right before the kick passed.

I assume the tanks initiated it. Once it passed. they both left.

Leveling an alt and got into Copperbell Mines. Had a mentor scholar who /followed the tank and did nothing the entire time letting fairie heal. Not an uncommon situation but the first time it has actually ever happened to me. Very irritating.

they auto follow me i walk them back to the entrance and wait there till they decided to play

I had a brain fart the other day. I came back after some time off and I'm going through my classes and I'm like why don't I have regen or none of my job abilities for my white mage. I have not been playing that long only about 2 and a half months total. Yes I forgot about the class stone you need to equip. I'm at the 3rd primal in the story and enter it. We make it through on like the 3rd try but I'm still confused where all my spells went. Than I get the dungeon with the dragons and make it through that no problem. I finally go to do my 45 job quest and that's when I remember the stone I need to equip cause it won't let me grab the quest. Lmao no one told me I was a conjuror in any of the dungeon runs whitch I thought was weird especially after the 2nd wipe on the primal. Every thing is good to go now though. I made healing those a lot harder than they had to be though lol. Go ahead and laugh but I thought it was pretty funny.

Did sastasha hard the other day with a free company friend both queued blm. he was lazy and I hate not having armor crush on ninja...

anyway got paired up wit ha drk and a whm. run was going ok at first the dark was pulling mobs all the place almost trying to kite them in circles to take less damage... my friend not saying anything just did the /question emote at the tank.... tank runs to the door for before the second boss clicks open and then bails the duty... wut tha f000000q...

just ploughed on through the rest of the dungeon as 2 blms and a whm. creative use of quelling strikes and e4e / wall / ward to bounce the hate a bit....

quite impressed with the whm really... tossing out dps healing up and still not really struggling with mp even though we were pretty squishy...

I'll take em to the end, then kick em out and bring in a friend :3

[Pells]

That actually happens? Jesus I thought that was just a stereotype.

I'm more surprised that people don't kick these players when it does happen.

[HiroKonobu]

This might be a minor story but I just got kicked simply for going to the wrong party, on WoD. Even apologized too, people are way too sensitive, didn't even get a chance to explain, and the fight didn't start at all and they did it.

Replacing a DPS is easy and immediate. Tanks and healers don't come quickly, or sometimes at all. :/

Healers/tanks aren't required for Copperbell Mines.
