To be fair, the ice black mage has been debunked because they are capable now of hitting 4.6k just by rotating between thunder casts and B3/B4. And my numbers are with my static - marking me as a definite weak link that I need to fix. Why is everybody jumping up in arms against my post - I was using myself as a prime example against the person I was responding to. I didn't say that these so-called elitists don't exist, but I am saying that they aren't in the overwhelming numbers that people like to say are everywhere, especially when they are sharing sentiments that the entire raid community is like this.



When you are me, when you have been raiding since Deltascape and have been playing since 3.56...then yeah, I would assume that anybody with a right mind would consider that my absolute best at 5k on ninja would mark me as a trash player. Not saying everybody else pulling 5k is trash...but I can understand the sentiment that people say I'm a bad raider.

Why is it a problem that I'm labeling myself as such, even when talking about just myself?
I think people might have taken it the wrong way. If you're talking about yourself and your personal expectations no one could, or should, judge. But at first I myself was under the impression that you were generalizing. If you weren't, that's fine, but I can see where it might have been lost in translation.
