I laughed and I shouldn't have, but it really seems that many don't know that getting hit on a mount applies a heavy debuff to that target, and effectively makes them a free kill. There's also the fact that IF you engage someone (as I've personally proven many times) there is the possibility of starting a fight you can't finish. I wish I earned gil for every overconfident WAR/MNK I've sent running from me, lol.

My other personal bit of facepalm-worthy entertainment is placing a turret and watching someone go full ham on it, then as it's nearly destroyed, replacing it in the same spot. All the while explaining to my team not to bother attacking turrets/pets unless you're building/keeping stacks, knocking it out of range, or if it's low enough to just be rid of already. In the time it takes to kill one, they can be resummoned.
