FFXIV Random Complaint Thread II: DPS can't count to potato

[Taint]

Shit...

Nah its good. You can upgrade weapons in 2-4 runs now.

[Destinye]

Yep, it's still RNG regardless but it's good to see it DOES actually work compared to before where you're basically wasting your time till you hit higher floors unless you're insane enough to try to hit 60 before floor 20 lol

I meant more along the lines of I must have had bad luck since I had 3 weapon chests go off last night and not getting an upgrade.

[Kaisha]

Don't forget +3-4 runs of 40-50 because people still can't into basic mechanics on floor 50 still.

Lost +4 weapon +1 armor upgrades thanks to a retarded whm and a blm who never used anything beyond lvl50 skills, and ate every aoe.

Not having Nidhogg clear in 3.35 ..?

[Hitoshura]

Just kind of recently joined this static, 4 of the members have kills, and I don't consider myself "good" or anything but my IRL friend asked me to OT because his OT was a piece of shit that said he just HAD TO quit and ended up showing up in another static that same week. Sadly they also lost a healer and 1 DPS and we have been replacing members almost weekly until about 2 weeks ago, and this was our best attempt so far and goddamn it really felt like that was going to be my first kill over him!

Question: Our other healer that went down, if he had been alive, would we have survived a 7 hit Ahk Morn?

[Shenrien]

Probably not but if it targeted you and you had hallowed ground I didn't pay any attention to your hot bar you could have hallow grounded it away from them and would have been just fine.

[Hitoshura]

Really!? Ok I will have to do that, I had to blow it this time but a mistake I won't be making again. I am on PLD unfortunately because I picked the 1st Lore weapon for it for a static that didn't last very long. Trying to get back on my Warrior and the axe from here would be amazing. The good news is, everyone is very comfortable with this fight now and each other despite them being newer but it finally feels we have our set members. I can't wait for our next run.

Have to be bothering about it in the first place. Most boring Primal ever, and lame rewards.

Got the "I play how I wanna play" act from an archer in PotD when I told him not to run around while fighting. The pugilist chimed in with "Stop using our pots (pomanders) the second we get them." We literally had 4 pomanders running through floor 31 til 33. 2 strength (I used one and the pug used one), 1 safety which I used at the start of one floor and 1 witching which saved our asses when we were dealing with 2 succubuses and a third mob at the same time. Fun times.

But kiting on BRD is PotD is awesome. Feels like old school FFXI.

I do hate people who use up all the Poma's once they fall, like god damn can we save something? xD It's not that big of a deal but why use rage with only 2 monsters left...

I can understand rages but strengths you should be using them as long as you don't have the buff. You're likely going to get more, bosses are not difficult enough to require them and you'll speed up the run in general. It's like, I'm totally glad you waited until the boss to use up a 10min buff...

[Alistaire]

Also things like rage, you should never save those for the #9 floor because if you get another it's wasted. The difference between say using it on 38 or 39 is negligible other than floor buffs/debuffs, and as many times as you might get a gloom you can't dispell on #9 you might just as well end up with a haste buff or a no items floor, and if you don't have the dispel item in that last case it won't matter if you got another rage or not.

As long as it's not a clear derp like popping fortune right before you go up a floor it's all whatever.

[Twilight Sky]

I feel like astrologian is all spam Benefic II or all die. But I'm just level 33 so maybe that'll change.

[Corrderio]

Getting penalized for abandoning weeping city even when there were 8+ others that left beforehand but in different alliances.

[Hitoshura]

I'm 0/6 on the tank pants so far this weekend, it hurts. Sucks still have to clear weekly for free materia, but necessary.

[Twilight Sky]

~_~ morons still dying to doom on first boss in Qarn normal..and ignoring bees.

[Shenrien]

If you're good you can kill the boss without having to kill the bees, however that requires people to actually know how to play their jobs and that is just asking too much for this game.
