Some annoying behaviors and perceptions

[FunkyBunch]

The DPS forgetting they have AoE is by far the biggest pet peeve of mine.
If you're too lazy, just don't queue.

The second biggest is anyone who ever just stands around waiting for things to happen.
If you're a caster ABC, if you're a melee ABonC, (always be casting and always be on cooldown, respectively).
I don't care if you're a healer, ABC (Cleric, DOTs, HOLY etc).
If you're DPS and out of TP, ABonC (you always have enough TP for a single target combo). Plus you get invigorate for a TP boost. So stop using being out of TP as an excuse. I can't think of any large pull in the game where you'd run out of TP after using invigorate if everyone else is also AoEing.

For NIN, yes Death Blossom doesn't seem to do tonnes of damage, but Internal Release right as you start death blossoming makes a big difference.
You can also still keep your Huton up by interspersing a single target combo here and there. (just try and make it on the guy with the highest health).
Doton and Katon are pretty great though. You're no BLM or MNK but you can still do decent AoE DPS.

Also, I tend to be ghost-like. I play on PS4 and it's a pain to type anything. I have a bluetooth keyboard but it never works. So I sometimes emote something, but I don't really type unless someone is being particularly bad and I know the role enough to comment some suggestions.

This whole thread, summed up in one sentence: People play differently than I do, and that makes them wrong.

Regarding the "Melee who don't AoE" stereotype, I have to ask, how easy is it to recover from TP burn after several AoEs? I understand Nin might have an easier time with most since Doton dosn't need TP and MNK post 50 has Elixer Field but most melee AoEs had more than 100 TP used which does make sustained DPS a little difficult without the help of the Spire or Goad

You should always have enough TP to do single target rotation. Maybe not 100% optimal, but enough to finish the fight which you made significantly shorter by AoEing.
NIN can't GOAD themselves and rely on the DRG Cross Class Invigorate anyway for bonus TP. (I don't have it yet, but can still do fine, I just do the single target rotation when out of TP+Doton/Katon depending on how many mobs and their health levels).

Regen is 100 TP/3s outside combat, and you get at least 15 seconds between pulls in most dungeons, more often closer to 30 seconds when doing big pulls.

People play this game in PS3/4 and by the time you get a "hello" on the virtual keyboard your party is already speeding off and leaving you behind. Normally I'll just keybind emotes to one of my cross-hotbars and wave at the start, and salute at the end, if someone is new and needs directions I'll get the keyboard but can't quite keep up dps and type at the same time for other random stuff.

That's the exact reason I never talk. Typing on ps4 takes forever.

I don't get chatty on the PS4, but, I do have macros for "Hello!", "Well done all!" and "Safe journeys!" that I have on one of the static hotbars.

I use the auto-translate feature since it's practically a full macro list of short sayings.

For the ghost people, I do greet people at the beginning and wish them good luck after a dungeon run. It's hard for me to be chatty in dungeons, I play on a laptop so my movement keys are my talking keys. Since I'm a monk main, you'll either get me doing my positionals or talking, I actually can't do both!
