Tales from Duty Finder: Some make you laugh, some make you cry. Let's vent. 2.0

[Avatre]

I honestly don't enjoy a lot of roulette runs these days...almost 80% of the ones I've done recently have had tanks that don't adjust the boss so that DPS can hit positionals, or be able to attack while not standing in the bad, or DPS that single target during large pulls(had a DNC who did this in Expert roulette today...they didn't even use Technical Step the entire run, and as a DNC main, that hurts to see)

To the SCH I had in Dead Ends, don't feel too bad. We stopped a total wipe from happening and you well healed a DRK while we took on and endured the mobs with two less DPS until they got back like the chads we are. I wanted to comm you but you left immediately.

[Byron-Blackfyre]

While I was outside Eureka Orthos, I met a mentor named Edelgard who was waiting for their friend. We started talking and they gave me a lot of good advice about Bozja and DRS. A few days later when I was queuing MSQ on Duty Roullete as Tank, I ran into Edelgard again. Turns out that their group's tank and healer had disconnected during the Nero Cutscene so I was sent in by the system to fill. We cleared the content and had a chat afterwards. Ended up adding them as a friend. That was a nice coincidence ^_^

Maybe. There's a lot of people out there that genuinely think provoke is a part of their rotation.


Also if you want to be enraged here's a new horror story. Got vote kicked at the end of Castrum Meridianum right before Livia. No DCs this time.

Not entirely sure what happened. No sprouts/returners, but the DPS was a bit rough. The healer was struggling, but they also weren't constantly casting. The healer and RDM would just sit there sometimes doing nothing. At one point I may have upset the healer because my health dropped to around 300, so I hit Superbolide, just barely a second after they Beni'd. I really didn't expect to see them beni considering they were just kind of standing still for a few seconds before that. That was during the pulls before the second boss though so it's not like they didn't have a chance to vote kick before the earlier since I didn't exactly instapull the second boss or anything.

Times like these i wish I could Superbolide another person in the party and then Shirk them and be like "You have a few seconds to make peace with whatever God you worship...but I'm not going to be listening".

I queued into Copied Factory using my Rokku character with DRK role to obtain the 9S card for him. I rolled pretty low so I accepted the fact that I would run it again. I still got my mog tomes and 3 commendations as indirect compensation.

However, what really angered me about the run was not me not getting the 9S card, but rather what happened during the roll for the 9S card. Both of the healer players who rolled for the card rolled higher than me, but only one of them won both cards. That really irritated me because the healer who won both cards hit ZERO HP once at least each fight with the other healer and both summoners having to revive that healer often.

If there was a time to bring back the one Alliance Raid card in inventory limit, the time would be now with the above situation as justification in my belief. Weeping City of Mhach and Dun Scaith had this with their respective Triple Triad cards in the past before they were obtainable via Triple Triad NPCs.

Many thanks to that SGE who ran 0 piety and was constantly at sub 1000 MP about 2 minutes into encounters in that Tower of Paradigm Breach run yesterday night. Even though the run itself was far from being a chaotic one, solo healing a huge bulk of those encounters made me feel more alive than ever.

[ronibosch]

Why'd there have to be a power outage when I was in the middle of a run as GNB in the Drowned City of Skalla?!

I'm so sorry, random adventurers I was playing with. ;-;

EDIT: They were still there when I logged back on. Thank you, friendly strangers!

I honestly think there should be 1 healer for Alliance raids. It's the only time it is fun.

I joined duty roulette Leveling: Party in Progress like a healer in Haukke Manor and this is what happened before I joined:



The funny thing is that he was a sage, a S-A-G-E (min level required lv. 70).

I would left too, if some one refused to open the box I need, but not during mid boss fight
