Feast, all luck.

Also, since I switched to DPS for some reason now every match I have tanks who are yelling about killing the healer (always an AST to lol) who continue to waste their time running after them the entire match yelling about how no ones on the healer (because chasing one player while the other three rape your team is a good idea). Sigh I just don't get it, what is wrong with people in this game.

To be fair, I have focused AST especially at times because they're always a pain in the ass to deal with. They're the only healer that can't pop a heal in between stuns, which is pretty annoying. I can't tell you how many times I've stunlocked an AST to see them heal themselves in between each stun because they have an instant heal, lol. It's just dumb as hell to deal with.

Yet when I face SCH or WHM, they don't get away with that. They get stunlocked just as they should and are unable to heal during this time. In any case, there are only two scenarios which cause me to focus the healer:

A. Our opening burst didn't kill the DPS, so now we're just wasting time on them.

9 times out of 10, if you don't drop the DPS in the first 30 seconds or so, you're not going to. This is when I'll switch to their healer and focus them instead, then burn them down to focus the DPS we couldn't kill earlier.

B. At some point during the match, an enemy DPS may have 2 stacks of medals or so, so people will try to focus them.

This in itself isn't a bad idea, but if I see that a minute or two has passed and both DPS are still trying to kill the DPS with the 2 stacks, I switch the target to the healer, then we burn them down instead. Basically, it's a situational tactic because there will be times where the DPS on your team is so bad, they can't burst this guy for more than the enemy healer can heal for, so they keep recovering. This is when you basically have to focus the healer before you can make any headway, but if you're unable to kill the healer as well... Your team probably just lost the match.

Point is, I can do everything to help you guys in order to kill the DPS or healer with Full Swing/stunlocking, but if you're still unable to kill them during that time, then I don't know what to tell you, man. You dun goofed.

You're 100% right Celes, there are more than a few amazing heals out there that can keep a player with the defense of a wet paper bag up no problem.

Probably because PvE sucked most good players onto one or two servers. So if you're on some boondocks server, your only option is to transfer to the big server on your DC (ie: Gilga/Balm on Aether) so that you have the biggest pool of good players.

That means its time for this game to have cross-realm party finder! se plz

I cry when I see a paladin or a drk on my team, usually means they are bad enough or non competitive enough to not switch to warrior

[kisada]

drk i would find questionable. pld can be good, but the good ones are rare. i only worry about a pld in party when i already have a blm who will likely be focused on cc and not too much on dmg.

All of it is pure luck, rng with who you get teamed with. Very little comes down to outplaying the enemy.

Why the Devs would make it such a way where you can constantly get clueless players that completely unbalance the match is a mystery to me. Well, maybe to inflate people's game time? Nah it couldn't be that, I mean it's not like they've done it for that reason for the relic quests before.

It's just bad design. No skill based matchmaking. It's broken at it's very core.

I've gone days where I win a few hundred points, but then I always drop a few hundred the next day. It's like a constant struggle with random players in your team to end up in the exact same place you were in a week ago. Absolutely pointless. In almost every match I'm best DPS. In almost every match I'm the WAR with more kills and damage dealt than my teams DPS.

Think I'm done with this game's PvP, yet again another timesink just to make a few pixels look good. I won't compete in a broken tournament. gl.

...didn't the magical chocolates of Forest Gump teach you complacient bastards anything? ...j/k j/k.

It just sucks as I feel as a Ninja I am slowly improving on how to use my abilities and contribute to the team with calls, marks, clearing boxes, etc. ATM, I can't seem to break 650 rating and everytime I get close I get a string of loses. Now I don't mind the good matches where I lose as those are always good games but the ones where a certain "bot white mage" barely does anything, or the other dps who spreads his damage out to so many targets instead of the one marked just so he can complain that it's everyone else's fault because his damage is high.

(to be continued)

I personally don't like the scoreboard at the end as it is not detailed enough to really know what happened during the match but detailed enough for someone to grief another player when they don't now the whole story. Tonight I had a string of loses with a summoner always on my team wanting both buffs but end up losing badly. I feel I am getting better as I am getting good on surviving the initial burst from the other team and making sure to use Purify on Full Swing to clear it along with the other debuffs that stack on me in the first minute.

I knew solo rated would be very RNG depending on who you get but I think I miss my chance to place in the top 100 because I didn't start at 3am when the season started. I would like to look for a team to play with but sadly my FC doesn't support the Feast and no one is willing to team up and can't seem to find teams recruiting on this forum or PvPreborn.

Might have to go back to Street Fighter V to get my PvP competitive fix as in most MMOs, RNG has never been on my side in any content.
