Just some friendly advice from a healer

[Annah]

When you do brand new raids that literally no one else has done either, please don't lash out at other players who messed up a mechanic. Take it easy. Relax. And remember, it's a video game...not your finals.

Likewise, if you mess up a mechanic, please don't feel like you failed. We all die from brand new fights and we also learn from those. It's ok.

Just remember, FFXIV is a game that you should enjoy. It's all good! New encounters may have wipes...it happens.

If you're a healer and a dps dies in a brand new instance, please don't call them out. Do your job and resurrect them. Believe me, they feel as bad that they died as you do for resurrecting them.


If someone berates you like this is real life, just ignore them...they probably have some real life issues going on...or they are taking it too seriously.

Play to have fun. Play smart. Remember the mechanics to be better at it next time. It's all good

Nice post ! Hopefully many many more people will think this way .

I was doing the 3rd raid fight, healer lashed out at everyone that died. the content was 12 hours old at the time, I guess we all are supposed to be experts within 12 hours of new content being released.

Can't wait to get home from work and go through the new stuff. Not sure whether to go as my DRG or RDM though.

Well said, you have the right attitude, anyone would be lucky to have you in their team hopefully more players adopt this style of thinking.

I will hope more have the same attitude, but won't hold my breath with some my recent DF experiences. I know there are good apples and bad apples...but some days it could just take that one bad apple to ruin your whole night of relaxing(though I try to ignore 99% of what people say to me if it's negative, doesn't always work though)

It's normal to wipe in new fights or fail a lot, but then again, when someone fails over 10 times is another story. I agree with you OP but I also hope people pay more attention, specially wanting help from others understading the mechanics, rather than ignoring it.

2/4 runs i had impatient tanks smash into the boss before anyone could even explain, or before i could even react to what my co healer was, and switch stances accordingly.

Boss was pulled the second the barrier dropped.

Yeah, take a chill, relax, let people have fun with new content! Enjoy what you have available, and don't stress because someone flubbed a mechanic on a brand new fight! There is no need to be upset. 'u'
