Recently I achieved the goal of clearing every one of the Coils raids, T1 through T13, at Minimum I-level and no echo. For those who have done the Coils raids MINE, you know how hard this is to achieve and is not an easy feat.

I have also done most of the 50 ex' primals MINE, and all of the 60 and 70 EX primals MINE level. (yes, even Thordan and Shinryu) Am currently working on the 80 EX ones MINE.


And yet, if I do many of the dungeon roulettes, I tend to totally, totally suck in them for some reason. Seriously, I screw up the boss fights and tend to die lots. My friends usually bet on if and when I will die in a dungeon instance.

If you have done any coils content, especially MINE you know you cannot really be carried, especially in stuff like Nael or Bahamut. You need to know your stuff, know mechanics, and know your role decently enough to get the clear. You don't and people die and the party wipes. So I am not an idiot at this. I went though every fight, got the clear legitimately, and in many of the fights did not even die at all on the clear run.

Yet if you are with me in a dungeon I am sometimes soooo bad at it that you would call me a noob who has no idea how to play the game and needs to 'git good'.

It's really so puzzling at times. I am really kind of curious to know if anyone else is like that. Good at hard stuff, bad at 'easy' stuff for some reason.
