Using AST's Expand in Light Party Duties

[Ametrine]

You reward better performing players with the cards - There is no pressure on them if you do - I wager it will be quite the opposite, and they really to get to shred through the trash better, giving you faster clear times.
I never heard of drama about cards, nor did I ever witnessed it on my own so I assume that's just anxiety coming from yourself.

Personal anxiety is definitely a part of it. I've talked with PUGs on card usage and personal tastes on a job per job basis to try to find some sort of happy medium, and I do feel trying to spread everything resulted from "well, this isn't going to hurt anyone and everyone gets buffed."

In the end I came to the conclusion that I'd rather contribute to overall DPS by just DPSing. XD That's rather counter-intuitive to the AST kit, so I jumped back on SCH at SB's launch. Currently leveling WHM.

But if you are looking for an explanation as to why so much spread happens in 4-mans, nerves is my answer

But, how can you tell who's top if you're on console?

You can usually get a good idea by looking at who's 'try harding' the most.

Hounding the tank with sprint, engaging immediately, AoEing hard and minimising time lost to disconnects and AoEs are all things that are easy to look for and generally will give you a good idea of where to throw those cards.

Well the general rule of thumb is that the one with the bigg- wait wrong game.

In that case just go with whomever put more effort into their glamour and/or whomever is better-looking. 9 times out of 10, that person won't be the one spamming Scatter on a single target.

I take it this only happen mostly in west server? From where i play (tonberry) i never get this "behavior" of sort.

Once i give defense card to dps by accident but, the guy keep getting hit by aoe and aggro pull so he give me /thumbsup emote instead, he probably think i try to help him lol.
