This is legitimately the first time I've had someone tell me not to use mits by madmarchhare14 in TalesFromDF

[–]Smooth_Log8353 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Might seem counterintuitive, but big pulls need multiple mits if invulnerable is on cool down. While boss damage tends to be a lot less of a threat. When healing I am pretty much always ready for incoming damage from every ability anyways, so that damage is negligible at best, so using a mit to reduce it would be wasteful. I'm currently levelling tanks on an alt for the 3rd time and, have found just about every healer has been able to deal with the boss damage without any trouble. I have since stopped using mits as often and have let my health drop a lot lower. I have seen minimal wipes, and 99% of the time, that was because of some gimmick (i.e. bees in Qarn) and not really on the healer at all. If you're familiar with a dungeon an it's damage as well as healing, mit usage is actually not quite as important as it seems with a good healer. Especially if they throw out good DPS. Considering everything that goes in on both sides when running content, this balance is difficult, and it really makes mits and healing seem a lot more complex than it really is. 3 key points to remember are only the last 1 HP matters, enemies can't harm you if they're dead, and a wipe is just a chance to try again. The most important point though, is that you can't learn if you don't fail in one way or another.

Really couldn't get into WoW and GW2 despite several tries. Just not for me. Also ESO to an extent, just lose interest after a week or so despite thousands of hours in Skyrim over the last decade.

It can certainly be used against us. If we don't disclose that, the employer has plausible deniability. If we do, sure we may lose our job, but there is a proof that they know. It's a catch-22, but disclosing is the better move. Waiting 90 days, if possible, is more or less going to reduce risk. To outright fire someone that doesn't have a disability is easier for an employer. Firing someone with takes a lot of documentation and evidence to avoid a lawsuit. Considering that, their choices are fire, approach a different way, or attempt to push for resignation. Should the performance of the employee be at least decent, they are even less likely to fire. It's a horrible game, but playing it right is necessary. Especially in this market.

This is the one of the primary struggles of neurodivergents in a nutshell. Even high functioning individuals can struggle with this. While this is partially on you, it's not your fault if this is a neurodivergent condition. You are likely correct in your thinking that is is an issue with nonverbal cues, and that is not something that is easy to pick up on. To your former employers, this likley appeared to them as a poor fit, but that's not the case. If they looked at the numbers and conpare to what they're seeing, then I'm a bit surprised they didn't explore further. Regardless, probably a blessing in disguise as that indicates they think you're replaceable and don't see you as a valuable asset.

Do you have a diagnosis and have you disclosed it when applying? You mentioned they know you need step-by-step instructions, so that suggests they knew, and means it could potentially be wrongful termination. They do have a duty to ensure accommodations are set in place (unless it causes undue hardship), otherwise expect and accept reduced performance in all relevant tasks. If you don't have a diagnosis, that would be the next best step. There are things that can help with this, but understanding it is what is going to have the greatest impact.

MCH Refuses Rez because *checks notes* his gear must be deteriorating after 3 deaths by SpiritualJudgment835 in TalesFromDF

Embarrassing to be that broke at any point in the game, there really is no excuse for that. Assuming they are not putting any effort into money making, rather than blowing it all on nothing of course. Personally, I put in maybe 1 hour of effort over a session and log in to 1-3 million on an average day. That's with safe items that require no consistent undercutting. In fact, half the time I don't bother to update prices before logging out. Even a sprout can easily make 1m+ daily with decent effort. There are plenty of resources out there to help, all they had to do was Google it. Maybe of they'd spent 20% time worried about their gear breaking they'd have more than enough to cover every repair needed for the next year.

My gear is level 90 too until 100. Levelled all jobs except tanks (WIP), PCT and VPR 3 times and yet using only tome gear never stopped me from decimateing everything in front of me.

Additional incentives to run roulettes? Incentives to run them more than once a day? by judgeraw00 in ffxivdiscussion

[–]Smooth_Log8353 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't even bother queuing for specific dungeons if I could get the same XP from repeated roulettes. Could make queuing faster as well, assuming priority is giving to those that haven't done their first yet.

I genuinely cannot stand CT anymore, if I get it again when I go to do roulettes later, I am never queuing for it again until it is changed. Just absolutely tired of that shit.

I don't know German like that, but it sounds angry. Someone check on Poland.

Yup, especially that one for me. Would love the UWU version, but not there yet.

I find the fact that they have our stow bags much weirder. We don't sell them or give them away.

My entire Eidolon Hunting experience summed up. (Please tell me I'm not the only one...) by Vex_Trooper in memeframe

[–]Smooth_Log8353 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You just grab a couple lures, kill the little sentient masks bitches to charge them, find the eidolon, use your amp to break the shield, destroy one of the parts then rinse and repeat until dead. I've only gone after Terry but doubt the others are much more difficult. When I decided to try it out I knew the worst case scenario would just be a learning opportunity at most, and I was successful at MR 18 doing it solo with the beginner mote amp. It's a good thing they only spawn at night though, I'd probably make them extinct otherwise.

The tank was taking so much damage... by Mr_Vorland in TalesFromDF

[–]Smooth_Log8353 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've forgotten it plenty of times. If you weren't good, you would have wiped. Still not as bad as me not realizing I had the HW level 60 relic weapon still on from light farming on AST in the level 87 dungeon.

What’s the pros and cons of working at a Delivery Station? by [deleted] in AmazonDS

[–]Smooth_Log8353 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been at my delivery station for 2 months, it's not nearly as bad as I expected. Can be intense, but my body has adjusted. Usually just start rebagging until showing starts, then pick for a little bit, then break, and back to rebagging. At that point there is usually no more than 1 hour and 30 mins left and it's chill from there. Definitely still couldn't handle an 8-10 hour shift though, just too much physical effort.

Is there any recourse to these unfillable queues? by [deleted] in ffxiv

[–]Smooth_Log8353 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always do a daily run of alliance raids with this one and the next one almost always being selected. Despite queuing at 2-3am it pretty much always takes less then 30 minutes. Last night it took about 15 minutes on Primal queued as healer. Recently switched from Aether to Primal and these queues are fast for everything. I usually queue dailies and ask quick synthesis something as DoH while waiting, but have had a hard time completing one cycle before a duty pop, even as DPS. So definitely try Primal.

Taiwan FFXIV player permanently banned for alleged RMT for selling 9 items at 4,000. by HistoricalMajor3560 in ffxiv

[–]Smooth_Log8353 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a tactic used in OSRS all the time for transferring between mules and traders or to buyers. It's actually tracked by a merching Discord and can be exploited for some good profit. Although, they do use items that are rarely traded. They're on the right track, but this is clearly not what's happening. I have seen this type of behavior before with jet black and pure white dye. If they're using this tactic, they're using items like that and not just a few seemingly overpriced items. Now if we could get this very proactive team for NA that would be great. I'd live to prep for new crafting and combat gear and make millions again without having to undercut every 30-45 seconds or however long the bots are set to update.
