    I know almost all of them but I still don't know a single name from Samurai. Why they used Japanese names in a world wide game is beyond me.

    Veteran healers don't care if we need to heal, but right now we don't. We want interesting things to do during the downtime other than a 30s dot and a single filler spell that hasn't changed from lvl 4 to lvl 90.
    Dead DPS do no DPS. Raised DPS do 25/50% lower DPS. Do the mechanics and don't stand in bad stuff.
    Other games expect basic competence, FFXIV is pleasantly surprised by it. Other games have toxic elitism. FFXIV has toxic casualism.[/LIST]

    The name of the job itself is Japanese. It is also mandatory to shout, "Shi'ne!" when using Hissastsu: Senei, or Doom of the Living as a finisher.

    Anywho, one of my confessions is I totally killed a player with Rescue. Fact of the matter was I needed another peep to survive a stack marker, and the player I used 'universal pull' on didn't have enough health to survive anything. Pretty cold-blooded, but survival of the fittest I suppose. For the Naruto fans out there, this is what I would call a "Sasuke".

    Once in Nier alliance I was a healer, with two friends. One was a dps and the other one was a scholar. We had a tank in our party that was completely ignoring everyone\\'s tips and killing half of the party with the tank stack. (Engels
    /Goliath fight) it happen multiple times. Everyone was kind enough to explain but the tank said they didn\\'t care.
    My friend told me to kill the tank and he will rez me (on discord). So during the transition to the second phase when he throws you on the second platform, I jumped down and rescued him. He was baffled and was asking "what killed me?" Most of the party knew what happen but they never told him the truth. "Oh you stood too close to the edge." "You must of walked off." I was like "oh now how did we did "
    He stayed quiet the whole fight and never killed any of us again. It was amusing.
