We should ignore mark people more

[Red-thunder]

See a tank spinning the boss south fighting for aggro with the other tank causing the boss to cleave everyone? Ignore Mark 1 and 2 on both the tanks!

See someone in Frontlines AFKing at spawn. Ignore Mark 1 them!

See a DPS getting 12 vuln stacks dying to a raidwide complaining why they didn't get healed? Ignore Mark his behind!

See a healer casting Cure III over and over again and telling you to shut up when you say "Hey, by the way Cure II is better for single target healing"? Just give up and ignore mark them!

Oh, God forbid you actually say anything in chat to express your frustration. No no no, you will just get banned. Just ignore mark them! Because that's the FF14 way.

Sounds good to me.

[ryouma17]

this will do nothin, half the player base doesnt pay attention to marks as it is and anyone can swap a mark at any time

I mean Ill say it again Frontlines is horribly designed to start with, most the maps its pure rng who gets the S ranks, I mean on the ice map Ive seen a game where one team legit got 2 to 1 of the big ices to another team, and in sealed rocks I sware people are paying one or two players in the other team they arent in and mass rushing a single team even at the start, and don't get me started on the stepps where that has legit screwed over teams by only spawning the S and A tiers on one side of the map. Then there is the fact its not even about skill level its about how many drks/warriors and white mages you bring right now to perm stun lock and pull in groups.


I mean rival wings and cc are much better but neither has a roulette so rival wings will never really be "played" outside special occasions

That's also because no one dares to speak up, people will let an AFKer get away with everything and will trounce on the people calling the AFKer out over the actual AFKer.

Bored thread post? x3

I dunno about y'all, but I've never been banned for just... expressing my frustrations in chat.

"Tanks if we pull and you spin the eye all fight again I'm DCing" is probably said at least once every other World of Darkness run, and I'm still here.

some guy standing around afk isn't the main proplem its a symptom of the major issue of frontlines just being pure shit to start with, with rng and the team that typically wins always has the same make up and able to stun lock entire groups of players to the point they cant do anything about it, and sealed rocks being so small of a map for 24 PLAYERS


I mean you can basically tell rather your team is going to stand a chance or not in the first 30 seconds in front lines due to party make up job wise, and the other teams partys and the first spawns are a clear indicator of where the game spawning is going to go.

The fact is with how its designed with "Spawns" it demoralizes people from the start of it, I mean if you see every A spawn at the top of screen in the first 10 seconds how you think someone going to feel, you really want them to care much if the spawn ratio is screwing them over and over and over again.


There only 2 things that will fix frontlines to point people rlly wont feel the need to "AFK"
1st do away with spawns completely do something like flag capture or protect transports that can be stolen by other teams (think of wows) mining shaft pvp area where you escort carts to one side and they weren't random spawns and they could be attacked and stolen if the other team played smarter.

2nd: half the amount of people in it/ make it only 2 teams

No, negative feelings do not exist. Everyone must live in blissful ignorance, which is why the friends list has remained unchanged for 10 years.

It's the people that put ignore markers up on people, and then the person removes them... just for the person to put it back on again that are obnoxious and should be banned.
