Way to forget the gear check SE.

If you read the dialogue they speak to your character as if you're acting as one of their spies.

I imagine the dialogue is different if you are wearing the disguise, just as someone mentioned the dialogue once inside changes if you take it off.

**Deadgye** · 2013-09-12 16:39

I had thought I read the dialog, but there's a possibility I accidentally clicked past it while trying to talk on mumble. If it indeed did mention something spy-like then whoops.

**Niiro** · 2013-09-12 16:41

I skim over 90% of it myself, the only reason I stopped to pay attention at it was because I was wondering if it would be different because I wasn't wearing the disguise.

I read the dialogue, but the Garleans should know your face by about now. You are the Eikon-slayer after all.

**miokomioko** · 2013-09-12 17:10

Garleans are widely known to suffer from prosopagnosia. Genetics or something.

**Lokus** · 2013-09-12 17:44

Shame on me for thinking SE would have gotten it's shit together when it came to lag. Certain things are straight up 1.0 tier still, getting hit long after I'm out of the red.

In what MMO is the PC ever as recognizable as they should be?

Also there's no cameras.

**Krandor** · 2013-09-12 19:06

Dropped out of a group over an hour ago, duty finder lockout still shows 8 minutes.

At the very next scene when you're with Cid, the very same Garleans point at you and say "It's the Eikon slayer!"

And it wasn't an "Oh shit we got fooled" type of thing, it was literally them acting like they've seen you for the very first time.

Their calamity-nesia had just wore off.

I'm more amused than annoyed, but DF Titan Hard has been an experience.

-I mentioned before but, narcoleptic WHMs who sit on full MP while party is at not-full HP, takes forever to target and heal someone, and is not riding GCD.
-People who keep getting hit by Landslide (often a DRG)
-BRDs that leave Ballad up all the time when I'm fucking SCH, WHM is the aformentioned slowbie, and only other MP user is BLM. Rationale: "I won't get to do it during heart"
-People who ragequit after falling off via Landslide. Again and again.

Oh new ones:

-Tank who brings Titan to center during ring bombs, Rock Busters everyone.
-Melee DPS standing in front of Titan for basically any reason, get Rock Bustered.

**Niiro** · 2013-09-12 19:55

Why the fuck can't non-crafted green items be converted into materia?

There's nothing to do with these items when you're done with them but trade them in for a laughable amount of worthless GC seals which are already ridiculously easy to get as it is.

Got a feeling by the time they implement the I-level check, most will have gotten past it through shear force of brute forcing RNG.

You would think after 10 fucking retries the WHM would learn not to spam Medica II for phase 1 stomps when everybody barely has a fucking papercut and I'm doing Succor anyways.

You would think DPS would shut up about lack of DPS and saving LB being a problem when WHM and DDs keep dying to post-heart bombs without fail.

This fight isn't wearing me down, it's the people who are incapable of pattern recognition (in dodging and in "oh I keep pulling hate at THIS part of the fight"). On the upside, post-heart practice. I guess.

It's a shame because the last try WHm pulled hate (again) and tank got targetted by Landslide and fell off. I think he was just as dumbstruck as me.

**Corrderio** · 2013-09-12 22:02

The spam filter being 100% worthless. For someone that claims to enjoy and play MMOs, I can't believe Yoshida half assed the system so much.

Where. Are. Your. Friends.

Seriously, where is your FC? Your complaints are legitimate, but Christ, bribe your friends, if you have to, to run you through it. Suck their dicks if you have to.

**Seravi Edalborez** · 2013-09-12 22:14

This is probably paradoxical given the amount of bitching I've contributed, but I'm not in a rush. I'm not particularly tired of the fight either. I can most definitely tag along with friends/FC and I plan to next opportunity that comes up.

But 'till then it's "give DF a shot, maybe get a miracle" or "level BSM/CUL/FSH".

**Deadgye** · 2013-09-12 22:23

You know what's starting to piss me off? The inability to see how much TP the party members have. If I have to make a TParty for this game I will be sad.
