    No.

    Everyone can have a bad day, a momentary lapse of judgement, or simply bad luck, and die to something they know how to handle usually. That is human and is, iirc not not a bannable offense.

    Hmmm. Banned no. You should never have a problem with normals, or any of the standard/casual content you mention.
    I suppose people could add you to their personal black list, but that can't keep you out of a Duty Finder instance they are in.
    It could mean they use that blacklist as black book of people they don't want to be in a high end PF with. But to take exception to someone because of how they are in a normal content they'd have to be extreme. Kind of looney extreme. And they'd be doing you a favour, you don't want to be in a PF they are in, and they would be a minority so small it's not going to impact you.
    If anyone says that in XIV chat log though, do everyone a favour and report them for harassment.
    I doubt it will make a difference on its own, but if they are a dickhead a lot, they'll get reported a lot, and when they finally step too far out of line, I'd like to think they will get less benefit if the doubt.

    You really won't get banned for anything in this game short of verbally abusing someone or admitting to breaking the ToS in chat

    your forum start sate is 2013.

    pretty sure you should actually know the answer to that by now. if, for some reason, you dont (which is unlikely), SE seems to reward incompetence and doesnt expect skill, even at end game. unless you are doing it intentionally, its highly unlikely.

    well these days i do have problems with normal group content because of 7.0 graphics that makes seeing bosses AoE attacks quite hard in many boss fights and then there is times when i'm simply too focused doing my DPS rotation that i forget to keep eye on combat it self and mostly ended up dying on either boss AoE attacks or on the boss mechanic.

    Players who black list me to avoid be in endgame content with me then they don't have anything to fear about me be with them when i haven't done any endgame content since 2014 because back in 2014 i tried to do The Coils of Bahamut raids but i never able to complete The Binding Coil of Bahamut - Turn 5 and since then i haven't tried to do any endgame content when i know that i will never able to complete them.
    And since 2014 i haven't used party finder to join party or recruit party members for endgame content either.

    You don't seem like a new player or something. You have over 100 posts and are level 100.

    Of course you won't get banned for dying to mechanics. People go into daily roulettes expecting all the players to die to everything. Not because of it being hard, but because a lot of the players in the duty are new, first timers, returning players, playing an unfamiliar job, or don't fully understand the game yet (mechanic snapshotting, cast bars, common mechanic indicators).

    Story content is designed with the idea that these sort of players (new and returning players) are doing it. So, they certainly wouldn't ban over it.

    DPS rotations are like that. Especially melee DPS and their positionals. They cause tunnel vision and that was always part of their difficulty. Healers, tanks and ranged physical DPS don't have this quite so much, especially when you get used to them, although personally I find SMN and PCT to not cause tunneling either given their simplicity.

    I see you're on an EU world. Whenever I play there for even the briefest period, I encounter toxicity in Duty Finder. I find there to be more people in the EU that are sweaty and toxic compared to the NA region. You can queue for a trial or normal raid roulette and the moment you do something they perceive as "wrong", they call it out very, very bluntly. I was in an expert roulette there and they berated a poor sprout tank completing a dungeon for the first time. They insulted them all the way through to the end of it ripping apart everything they were doing. It was hard to watch. Never see it in the NA region at all.
    since then i haven't tried to do any endgame content when i know that i will never able to complete them.
    When you are about 20 levels above it, you can solo it using the Unrestricted setting. I guarantee you can enter the coils as a level 100 Pictomancer and kill the bosses in 1 hit each. You may not be able to complete them immediately on release, but you can eventually when they are several years old.

    You'll be fine.
    You're more likely to get banned for typing something in the chat nowadays anyway.

    No. I also struggle alot with some boss VFX in DT, specifically Alexandria and alot of lightning based boss VFX because the flashiness of pure white disorients me. I found myself physically looking away from the screen in pain. I felt it keenly in Chaotic too. I have all positive interactions from being transparent with people and perhaps let healers/tanks know I might become familiar with the floor at some point. I remember when I was sick and had a fever and played just to distract myself from the pain of being sick and everything felt abit surreal, I always was supported.

    People won't know you're struggling unless you tell them. They're not mindreaders.

    Blacklists have no effect in DF as far as I know. You have to be truly something else to somehow manage to make everyone's blacklist...and if you're self aware, you'll be fine. Most people aren't looking over people's shoulders and blacklist space is limited anyway. If someone blacklists you for dying in normal content then you lost nothing because you probably don't want to play with someone like that.

    I don't know about high end. I avoided this savage tier because of eyestrain concerns and if my loot goblin brain didn't compel me I would've dodged chaotic too.

    All in all, I think the majority of people like to be communicated with.
