Unwritten Rules of XIV (Fun/Humor)

[Aylis]

Lesson learned when materia melding: When the percent chance is 50%-80% it really means 1% chance. When the percent chance is 7%-15% chance, it really means 90% chance.

Sometimes I see healers that never heal a rdm because they think its up to rdm to keep themselves healed up. Also if says you have 99% chance at gathering a item its more like a 50% chance. Once said had 99% chance and failed 3 out of 5 tries. Still waiting for true god primal boss where the primal name is Lag.

If you are doing 'one quick trial roulette' before bed it will always be Steps of Faith, Final Steps of Faith, or Shinryu.

Bonus points if less than half the group remember how to do them.

Looking for a quick, easy run? Get ready for Aurum Vale, or Bardam's Mettle with a Shire-geared tank.

Looking for a push? Have fun with normal Ifrit.

Lalafell are commendation magnets, female ones doubly so.

No matter how many times you have saved Ezorea, someone will treat you like their personal delivery boy/girl.

This thread should probably be renamed to "Murphy's Law: ffxiv edition" ;p

I'll second about the A and S rank hunts - I've lost the heart to attempt to do them anymore.

[Wilford111]

it's more a joke on how players keep saying everything is so easy, but in the next breath complain the average player is no good. I mean...if the average player can't do something, it's not easy its hard.

Yeah I mean... pretty much any game will be easy if you put 1000+ hours into it, which I imagine most people here have.

The PF wait is always longer than the fight.

Here's a frontlines one. If you aren't playing healer, the alliance will have no healers. If you do play healer, every alliance group suddenly has at least 4.

Running low level dungeons...
Free Cure 2 never procs when heal is needed, but always do after the last cure topped the tank to 100%.
