Strange player quirk from FFXI and now in XIV

[Preypacer]

Possibly the leader of the party didn't know how bad the coblyns are, or perhaps he wanted to see higher exp/kill, if you get in a party like that again (if you know you will get raped by a mob) speak up, tell them your "exp is fine as it is and exp/hr > exp/kill." I could be wrong but if your getting much more than 500 exp/kill go to slightly weaker mobs, you will kill faster and might only be getting 100 exp/kill less, but exp/hr could be twice as fast.

Oh and if anyone suggests killing coblyns for exp tell them no they have high def and we aren't at release now, coblyns suck.

I actually did bring up that point, by way of asking why we were moving to another spot if we were doing so well where we were. Their response was basically just that they wanted to fight coblyns.

Then if I were you if people keep doing that you could be better off ditching them, over time they would become known on the server for not knowing the basic mechanics of the game (exp/hr > exp/kill, and how efficiant parties work) people would in turn not join thier parties. Perhaps talk to the other members in tells and make another party with the others that were against it and really annoy the leader.

Its the only way these people will learn.
