    Do I have the right to be utterly annoyed?

    So about an hour ago I decided to do EXP roulette. Got Saint Mocianne's Arboretum - no biggie.
    Tank and one SMN had qued together. Tank only did pulls consisting of about 3 enemies even though we had two SMN'S. That was fine, I wasn't in a rush.

    Got to the area with the honeycombs and they destroyed it without killing adds. Ok, cool.

    Tank kept going to the second honeycomb and by now we had quite the mob on us; Tank didn't use any cooldowns besides rampart and Divine veil. Needless to say DPS didn't kill the bees/wasps in time and the horrible horrible final sting came and
    tank dropped down to 5 hp. Obviously heals don't come out in o.1 seconds soooo they died.

    Raised with a swiftcast and managed to keep the two DPS alive and eventually they destroyed the honeycomb.

    Tank told me that it was an unnecessary death. I didn't really want to have an argument so I just said sorry etc etc.

    We made it to belladonna and this is where dps decided to not move out of any AOE's so they had quite the vulnerability debuff on them. Comes to the point where one DPS dies instantly after taking one hit. Fortunately boss died. Tank got sassy and told me if I knew what my job was and questioned me.

    IM SORRY BUT WHAT

    That's when you respond with "Yeah, I know my class, and sorry, but my class isn't equipped to heal stupid."

    The best part about duty finder is that when you leave, you will probably never see any of them again.

    The Final Sting death is on his end not yours, PLD can keep stunning them on the cast attempts so there is no reason for him to have been hit by it in the first place. (War can stun the first and holmgang the 2nd orn to interrupt it, drk either needs their to stun reset or pop living dead and eat the 2nd sting)

    On the Belladona bit that sounds like classic Duty Finder morons to me, shouldn't have even wasted the time and mana on casting raise for them since it sounds like they weren't even trying to live.

    It was an unneccessary death, yes. A simple Homgang/Hallowed Ground/Walking Dead could have prevented it. Or, alternately, stunning the final sting to prevent dropping that low to start with.

    So, yes. I'd have been annoyed too.

    Not really your fault, he could have Hallowed or simply stunned the sting. When I'm in DF in ST Mocaine's and we're pulling to the second honeycomb, I always expect that sting will go off on the tank and tank will always get caught with his/her pants down so I always keep Essential Dignity or Benediction ready. Last boss, there really wasn't anything you could do. DPS want those stacks of Vuln and get 1 shot by the aoe blast thats on them. The only way you could possibly save them from the stupid was if you were a mitigation healer. A WHM or Diurnal stance AST can't heal through a 1 shot unless they take the time to SS.

    I grew quite a thick skin in this game, duty roulette members you often don´t see again...

    so i usually go on ignore mode...



    but that happens very rarely, as same as in real life, i usually have to deal with stupidity so i think ahead for others and prevent them dying of stupidity ^^

    Never a mind was changed on an internet board, no matter how good your arguments are...

    He / She is right. It was an unnecessary death. They should have used Hallowed Ground.

    Sounds to me like your Tank was an total idiot. It's perfectly fine to pull everything to the honeycomb and skip adds via lockout, but there is no tank in the game who can survive multiple Final Stings without mitigation, and sitting on your ultimate CD without using it is just plain idiotic. Sure, healers can keep ahead of the dmg with extremely high mitigation and the planned use of big heals like benediction... but why even bother with that kind of nonsense when you can just pop HG, negate the need for healing entirely, and bust down the door faster?
