Goad - the ability that doesn't exist

[Waeksyn]

Apparently, Goad has been removed from the game. That can be the only reason that Ninjas never give me (brd) Goad when doing heavy aoe. This is only slightly an exaggeration. I figure I get goad from less than 5% of ninjas.

This is the case regardless of what other jobs are in the party. In fact, I rarely, if ever, see Goad being used on anyone at all.

My songs are always up as appropriate. Perhaps you can play your job as well? Just a thought.

When I play my Nin I usually goad the tank when needed, but others don't ever seem to drop down much on the TP bar.

Edit: Also, my nin is pre 50 lol.

[Seisha]

I always goad when I notice someone running low, but sometimes I don't notice so don't be shy and ask for it and you shall receive.

[AlphaFox]

As above, are you sure it's not being given to the tanks?

[DragonSlayer45]

I use Goad, but I hate the whiners who act like I can use Goad every 30 seconds. I can only buff one, which is why I have a priority: PLD/DRK > WAR > other DPS who use TP.

[Kallera]

Oh but of course, because I love blanket statements by random people on the inte--oh look, the fight is over, guess you don't need that goad after all.

[Waeksyn]

Only War tank uses enough TP to need Goad. But, like I said, I hardly ever see it used on Anyone, including War tanks.

As far as asking for it, I just finished a level 50 roulette. I asked the Nin several times for goad with no response. Finally, I told him that goad should be used on party members with low TP, especially in those big pull AOE times. His response? Oh? I never knew that at all. Frankly, I think I was being trolled.

[Raagnar]

I say the same thing about brds when Im on nin doing aoe dps, because brd have 2 ways to regain tp that dont have a 3 min cooldown... goad, with the 3 min cooldown has to line up right when you are needing it during an aoe fight, thats only going to happen a couple times in a normal dungeon if at all, and war have priority over brd in a big pull anyway. So next time you think you need goad how about you battle voice and paeon instead, or use invigorate.

I like not getting it on WAR, that's my favourite. No seriously, I like having no TP, it's better than you having to press that button and everything Mr. NIN.

@Waeksyn
am i right assuming you don't play PLD? since you say only WAR needs TP. PLD eats TP like crazy and got absolutely nothing to regain any. as example, i'm almost out of TP on the second void ark boss before he uses his stomp. that gladly gives me then enough time to recover for the rest of the fight.
