Post your tanking derps and herps here!

Did Stone Vigil with a few mates, and was wondering why I was having so much trouble holding threat - where in previous runs they could barely pull it off me. Rotation was right, they even let me gain threat before starting to DPS; still couldn't hold threat. Managed to down the 1st 2 bosses before we realised we wouldn't have time to finish, so bailed...

... got back to Limsa and realised I'd been running with a broken weapon the whole time hah.

Doing temple of qarn for the first time.

Get to the first boss, no problems, say "what's he do?" healer makes a smart comment "you'll have to find out"

Find out he casts doom and we have to run onto the glowing platforms.

It becomes a hectic mishmash of playing simon says, nobody dies (surprisingly) and I had a giggle at how fun the fight was.

Sidenote: healer got punted by the temple guardian later and I lost it because I thought it was the funniest thing in the world.

By the way, those lasers from the third boss hurt.

I never derp.

Crap, that was not a trash mob I just pulled at Brayfox...

[Zoomie]

Does aiming the crocodile rear attack at your healers in Temple of Qarn count as a derp? Was a healer from my FC, long time friend, and he died... SCORE!

I was on bored zombie mode grinding on CM runs all night. At the first boss I get the message ("InsertGear has reached 10% durability.") or something similiar on 5 different pieces... I was able to retrofit all pieces as they broke with old pieces still in armory chest except for sword/shield. We go into the final Boss fight (the one after using cannons), I hit the boss one time and weapon/shield breaks. BRD tanked it for awhile until WAR could grab hate and I could take over adds. We still won and no one died. Most intense CM boss fight for sure as you don't do shit with a broke ass weapon. Always keeping a backup from now on.

First time on Titan, fat fingered myself into first person camera mode, without realized that that camera mode existed, therefore not knowing which button I pressed triggered it, and promptly cannonballed off the edge of the arena while running out for a Geocrush. It's the "home" key, by the way.

[Dhex]

When I was still Lalafell my camera kept sticking in the ground (I have no idea why) and I couldn't see on-coming AOE moves. I switched to Miqote and haven't had that problem since - but I had a lot of my friends annoyed for the first few weeks.

Derp!

Got to the last boss of Qarn, went smoothly and all but I was really tired and somehow got this idea in my head as the one DPS wasn't quick enough with the boxed in needles.
I left the summoner's Titan to TANK the boss while the summoner was stuck healing it, I was running around destroying all the needles while the DPS failed 50% of the time to get in a boss.
Got boss to 10% HP and summoner died, healer had boss in his face (as well as high ping) and died, DPS had boss chasing hand pummeling the heck out of him.
I got raged at by the slow DPS (who couldn't even dodge the blue line) and laughed at my stupidity.
Moral of the story: Take a break when tired.

Another was at Hydra but this was half my fault, this may sound over the top but I assure you it's 100% true.
I was new to the fight and when the egoist leader said "stack tanks damage so it balances out", I literally thought we had to balance the aggro and not stand on top of each other.
Took 2 deaths for me to understand what he meant, but even after the FIRST death he treated me worse than trash. He was cursing etc. so it upset me and dulled my performance.
Another thing was "make sure to dodge white breath", of course it was my first time so I asked "Is it a special move? If so how do I avoid it?", even the other tank was curious about the question.
The egoist leader was once more insulting, "Oh gee, you know that big red cone? Maybe if you step the **** out of it you can avoid. How did you ever get this far?"
Third death, healers fault and no one said a word. Fourth death came because I couldn't keep up stacking the other tank as well as being unable to avoid white breath (was really upset), the abuse got really personal that even the healer joined in, I was shaking at this point.
Fifth death (of course it came) the egoist leader switched to tank (he was just as bad stacking and failing to avoid white breath), he told me to DPS but my mind was everywhere at this point so I was confused, adds came and killed everyone.
The insults got so bad that they kicked me from the party, I was traumatized by Hydra for 2 days (my heart would pound like crazy) until my friends run me through, and my fear disappeared at how easy and smooth it was.
Tldr; Did really bad at Hydra, team treated me like trash and expected me to do better, glad I was a burden after friends run me through, don't treat people like crap.

Before I moved the Sprint button from my hotbar, I found I was forever hitting it when trying to use Shield Lob (which was the button next to it), simply due to me being somewhat of a butterfingers. One mis-hit key and bang, byebye TP. In the end I just mapped Sprint to another hotbar so I wouldn't keep hitting it.

Another derp I'm forever doing is setting marks on mobs during a dungeon, then forgetting to switch targets back to the first one and end up shield lobbing the one that was meant to be last. Doh!
