    Just had a 70+ WAR in Doma Castle and they used Rampart ONCE, not another single mitigation in the whole dungeon.

    It's been a long time, but I had a person who not only never went and unlocked their job. They also felt the need to troll an entire alliance. The party managed to kick them right before we got to CoD. Yes they were the tank. We asked them to turn their stance off and not to use voke. Also told them how they were making it difficult for the rest of the group by not having PLD unlocked. I noticed before the gate was down. The other tanks noticed it around the 2nd boss.

    One day I popped into an in-progress Heroes' Gauntlet. There was not a bard, but an archer in the party. In a level 80 dungeon.

    When asked about their lack of job stone, they said "it was stolen by a Lalafell"

    Sigh. Some people.

    Them lalafells man. I do understand some people do it for RP. Can you finish a dungeon with a person missing their job stone? Sure, but holy heck is it just not fun. Especially when they're missing not only skills but other useful things.

    The only worse thing is back during SB I'd get Titan Hard or Extreme and have people wonder why myself and everyone else who could res would just stop. It's because they were wearing gear that barely got them ilv and they didn't have enough HP even when not weakened to survive the later multiple room wides. Then they ask if you're being a bully to them.

    How did I even missed that… I apologized and insta-bailed after. Sorry folks! I’m unfortunately vain like that! >_>;;
    One of the big reasons I wish FFXIV had WoW's option to teleport out of a dungeon, and then rejoin it, without leaving the group, even in match-made content.

    I still don't understand why they don't make, well, literally everything level 50 and up require a job stone (except, I guess, in an unrestricted party, because why not). There's literally never a valid reason to not have your job stone equipped by then. Between 30 and 50, I make allowance for unfamiliarity, as well as the fact that you can actually exceed level 30 by a decent band before clearing enough MSQ to unlock jobs with the Preferred Server buff. But all of the level 50 content, and literally everything post-ARR, just flat out mandate a job stone. Especially in duty-finder matchmaking. Every single case of a job stone being missing is either someone made a mistake (which a requirement would serve as an effective reminder) or someone trolling.

    They also need to be a bit more aggressive with minimum itemlevel requirements for certain content types. The EW Trial 2 someone mentioned above, with one of the tanks wearing full 480 gear (at level 89), is a great example of the system very obviously not doing the job it should be doing.

    This.
    I was healed as a GNB by a CNJ a couple of weeks ago in Aurum Vale.
    The guy popped literally naked and when I asked what happened I was told he “lost my gear and my soulstone during an adventure”…
    We managed to clear but I was living on my CD’s and I had quite a fruit diet this day.

Our SMN took the melee spot just for the memes since the tank was so consistent with it. The Reaper on the other hand... kept fighting me for edge of map too. I was on DNC.)
    If they've played primarily ranged classes and are now playing a melee class for the first time, then that could explain it.

    My main is a black mage. I've just gotten Dragoon to level 90 and it's hard for me to not run when spread markers come up. Because that's the habit I've built up. Spread marker? Run far away because I can attack from far. Oh yea, I'm on Dragoon, guess I'm lobbing my spear for a few.

    My worst nightmare was when I was queued up for MSQ roulette and decided to get a few new gear pieces. Right as I put one on, and immediately before I hit the button on my glamour plate, my queue popped so I had to watch the cutscenes with a very ugly headpiece.

    I was DPS, so requeuing would have lost me about half an hour... That'll learn me.

    I've been only playing healers for the past month due to finger issues. They're getting better, so I'm leveling DNC. The lack of responsibility I have feels... so weird. Cue me using Shield Samba on raidwides and big pulls and thinking I'm Helping!

    Nothing wakes you up in the morning quite like Titania in Trial roullete with new people.
    ...or so I thought, but we cleared it first try and made like 2 mistakes total, one of them being me. Now I wanna sleep even more.
