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

[Twilight Sky]

I would've let the SAM die, call him out on his bullshit, and if he continued vote kick him.

I envy your patience.

10 years of RDM gave me the mutant ability of "Patience Factor", that and just healing for many years.

Doesn't make you perfect though - we're all still human.

[Alistaire]

In the end you really can't control how people choose to play

But you + 1 other person to vote yes can.

just because S-Rank ARR hunts are wet tissue paper now doesn't mean you need to pull them as soon as you arrive. I mean if you spawned it then fine, but if you just heard the /shout or /fc call and pull it ASAP you're piggybacking off someone else's work and being a dick about it.


good thing the only hunts that matter to me now are SB anyway. moar cracked clusters, please!

Do maps, it rains cracked clusters in the new aquapolis.

This is a real problem on Siren for one reason: the Unity FC. Out of the entire server, they're the only ones who always show up to hunts and pull immediately, no matter what rank it is. They won't even wait a courtesy minute. The entire server pretty much hates them for it but there's nothing anyone can do about it. Although I imagine they got reported a bit when they pulled Okina into the crowd of people who gathered the first time it spawned in a purposeful mpk attempt...but I doubt GMs did anything about it. This isn't even a recent development; they've been doing it since mid-HW.

It's just really shitty to see people going out of their way to pop the S ranks, calling it for everyone else to come get it and these couple of people who have no courtesy towards others pull it so fast that no one can get there, and then seem to get off on all the hate. I do wonder if the non-douchebags in that FC get hate for being in it, even if they aren't the culprits of this shitty behavior, because it is a decently large FC (that raids seriously) as far as a I know.

[Kaisha]

I don't get why they don't just use the leveling system Odin has on A/S-ranks, just to let them more easily scale with the amount of people farming them. Least the ARR mobs won't die in 5 seconds when they're eventually lvl70+.

Screw cracked clusters, need more ways to get cracked crystals.

Please look forward to patch 4.3

also you don't *need* materia VIs for crafting, you can reach the requirements to 2 star by decent margin with overmelding crafted with Vs.

Not even. http://ffxiv.ariyala.com/11P61

Only uses a couple tier 5's at all, none overmelded.

dear sweet baby Jesus how did I get two o4n parties in a row where neither healer knew to remove doom?

I want this mechanic retuned to target both healers instead of 2 randoms. Maybe they will care more if it kills them or wipes the party because no healers.

I like the way you think, seems like healers just ignore it because it's not a big deal and they forget it's going to happen


which, you know, it never ruined a run or anything... it's just annoying af

I always run these on healer so I've never seen anyone die to them, thank goodness. I have had my co-healer tell me "I don't have Esuna" though...

Dear Healers from tuesdays Omegas,

I am a summoner. I have raise, I generally know mechanics, I am the dude who manashifted you several times, especially after I raised you. I know what Lucid Dreaming does, and use it (how did you enjoy that manashift?).
I can however not cure myself very well, and dying to unavoidable AoE generally means that I stop DPSing, and there's no one around to raise you when you mess up yourself.

You know it's a sad day/run when a DPS is carrying healers.
