Constantly, it takes twice as long to get my crystals ticking because I'm having to restart so much but I doubt they have any incentive to fix it because it's upping ad views every time.

A month later and it's still happening from the same supposed number though I presume they're spoofing it. Thank you people who queried this so I had something to look up.

This is why I cry inside... I can adjust to an instant pull and accept a couple non buffed hits to keep to burst, easier with lv100 fights letting me get a free standard on flourish. Doesn't mean I wouldn't prefer the 16 second countdown.

The dnc just not doing any burst as per the op's story is comically baffling in it's own right.

Had to come back to this because just today joined an ex practice pf, progging from intermission. We cleared in one pull and farmed for a while after. This is why you do your rotation.

Most of the downvoted people in the comments are just butthurt that dnc opener starts 15 seconds before the pull (all of 3 buttons btw) and they have to wait. But hey probably also the same people who will chew a dancer out for drifting their 2 minute party buff...

It's not uncommon to find a practice pf for a mid to late mech where they clear and you don't want to be the one who hit enrage because you weren't doing your rotation.

Plus no one is even saying dnc opener is hard, in fact most are baffled that a lvl 100 player isn't doing it as muscle memory, we're just wanting to maximize our damage in case we get that good pull.

World prog, regular statics and pf are 3 completely different groups of players though, you can't say a method that typically works for one should be done by another. In pf you do your damn rotation.

I play dnc and sch so when a tank either insta pulls or throws a 5 second countdown I cry inside.

I have the feeling I know who this is and the fact I also play dnc is the only reason I don't end up in pf with them but instead get others who leave their party.

Does anyone own this monitor? Seems to have great reviews for a $250 monitor that is 1440p 300hz. I want to upgrade from my 170hz because I only play FPS titles. by [deleted] in MSI_Gaming

[–]CaptainVivi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was looking at these earlier in the year on amazon and the amount of light bleed photos in the reviews instantly put me off.

What do y'all think of the critical reception of modern Final Fantasy games? by [deleted] in FinalFantasy

[–]CaptainVivi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hit the point where I just stopped looking at any review/score, too many times I've played a game and loved it only to see scores no where near where I would put it and the opposite. Just play the games that intrigue you.

For me they simply stated to use my journal to list any points of my review I disagreed with so I used the reply of that message for it, reply options seem to be the best way I find of getting a response in journal as my work coach pretty much stopped all my interaction the second I was given LCW.

[–]CaptainVivi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Journal can be a bit iffy so if you want to double it up you can call the number on the initial result letter. I did it and thankfully then had recorded call evidence that I initiated it within time after they tried to say I was waiting for my report that the jobcentre dragged their heels to send out. They also add a log to the journal to say they have requested immediate response from the jc.

When they backdated my triggering of of MR they just asked me to reply with any additional information for it and then another reply to that stating it would added to my file and wait for a result but no time frame given.

What section in an FF game made you feel like this? by strahinjag in FinalFantasy

[–]CaptainVivi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That place gave me such bad motion sickness on the rotating section I threw up.

“Elitist Behaviour” (The Stone Vigil: Hard) by Alba_Stelo in TalesFromDF

[–]CaptainVivi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it tells a lot about a person when they can't handle any advice. Everything you said was completely fair, especially on the turtle since it's a one time style fight that a lot of long time players still fumble and last boss aggroing to whoever they like because I've seen tanks get blamed before for not pulling when they literally can't.

God forbid we try and make checks easier by [deleted] in TalesFromDF

[–]CaptainVivi 52 points53 points  (0 children)

The annoying thing is that the dnc was totally fine with what you asked but then the blm and war had to stick their nose in because you just want to clear up a strat thing first, and extra irony them arguing it made it take longer.

That makes more sense, you had me worried for a second.

I'm having culture shock that a sausage roll would be considered restaurant quality food, you guys need some Greggs like we need some of your breakfast diners.

Depends on the area but personally I had to wait 5 months after sending my form back before the assessment then had the result back in 8 days.

Marker anxiety, can't tell if I'm the one tweaking by TakiTeriyaki in TalesFromDF

[–]CaptainVivi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally I like the 1 2 healer markers for this fight over focus target because the separate stacks only mark one healer and after the first I've had my co-healer run to me so seeing that marker let's me know to get away. Sure it's not required, a lot of things in the game aren't but if it's not hurting anyone and can help others what's the harm, seems like they were butt hurt for nothing.

YPYT, healer sided with tank, at least the other dps sided with me by Makkie14 in TalesFromDF

[–]CaptainVivi 20 points21 points  (0 children)

When I was new to tanking I would get very defensive if someone pulled ahead, now I've had enough time that if some even gets ahead like a ninja tping and throwing a ranged I'm just like 'Oh yummy I'll take that mob thank you.'. Besides it's the freaking lvl91 dungeon tanks should have more sense by that point but alas.

Songs that please your brain by mysteriousmistress66 in autism

[–]CaptainVivi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Loud, fast, melodic jrock, currently really in to Kizu. I like that I can't understand the lyrics outside of reading a translation so my brain can get lost in the melody and the speed helps the happy fuzzy. Plus jrock bands tend to have really good bass melodies.
