Embarrassing confessions-

[Lynaris]

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.

I already posted here, but I have another embarrassing confession to make.

My main has always been melee DPS and whenever I run a dungeon for the first time, that's what I run as. So whenever I remember a dungeon, I always remember how as a melee DPS to do it.

Whenever I switch roles, all that goes out the window and I somewhat forget how the dungeon goes. If I run it as a ranged DPS, I might forget where to stand and might get hit by something bad. If I run it as a tank I do a little better, but might forget where to double pull for example.

IDK if this is normal or not.

Muscle memory is huge.

I've been leveling a BLM after running from ARR to Shadowbringers 5.2 as a DRG and it's been... interesting. I keep going to jump but I end up casting Freeze or whatever I have in its spot on my hotbar. It's painful. XD

Sometimes I forget I’m the healer, especially if I’ve been leveling an alt class all day.

(Thanks, Bene.)

Went into POTD with a friend the other day because they hadn't completed it on their alt and wanted to give WAR a shot besides. I decided to level my alt's WHM. Cue me accidentally killing her mid-pull by trying to turn down my volume and accidentally switching my monitor to HDMI.

I resubbed to the game like 6 days ago. I think. All I did was log in to get my fantasia out of the mail, another fantasia I bought on impulse. Switched to one of my usual presets, as usual. Haven't played the game since. Didn't even check the new update from.. don't know when. Still, resubbed probably just to occasionally make a fool of myself on this forum. Lurked every other day, sometimes had the urge to post. More of routine than anything else, sucks being locked out of it when unsubbed.

I don't know the names of most of the skills in the game, even on jobs that I have played for years. When people start talking about skills and rotations and they abbreviate everything (PS, DS, XQ!) I often have no idea what they are talking about.

To this day I couldn't tell you what the name of a single Samurai ability is. Despite leveling it to 80.

Why they made all the skills in Japanese is beyond me when they localize skills in every other language. At least with Ninja they only made some of them (mudras) in Japanese.

This reminds me of a time when I was playing with my one friend who plays this game. I was playing Sam and talking about some of the skills, and he started correcting me on how to pronounce some of them. Apparently, I wasn't pronouncing several skills correctly... for quite awhile

One from me and one from my boyfriend regarding Alliance Raids.

From me: I’m on PS4 and the default HUD had the other alliances HP in massive boxes that took over the top 1/3 of my screen. I’ve been playing and clearing these raids for years, but only just figured out how to fix this like... two weeks ago? I hate them slightly less now lol.

From my bf: He didn’t have other players’ effects off, so every alliance raid was a glow fest. I told him how to fix that a few days ago.

We really, really hated alliance raids until now.

In fairness, I don't know most of nin's skills anyway, English or not only one I remember is kassatsu, and that's only cause it's fun to say. Almost definitely saying it wrong though. <.<

Another confession... died a few times on Lakshmi a while back because I somehow ended up with my bard song gauge right on top of the duty button, so I couldn't clearly see either, and couldn't remember how the heck to move the duty button. Spent the whole fight trying to fix my UI and tanking the ground >.<
