things sure have changed

I’ve been trying to level NIN. Target 57 so I can use Hocho (cooking+3). Maybe 60 just for a nice round number. My BLM is 60 so why not?

So I went on seek for an hour. Got an invite. LV31-32 at Garlaige Citadel, setup was NIN/WAR, MNK/THF, THF/WAR, BRD/WHM, BLM/WHM, RDM/WHM. Notice anything weird?

Well, there’s no support tank.

And Garlaige is too high.

And so I lose shadows very fast and get hit for 90~100.

After the first bat, mages were all out of MP from spamming cure on me. BLM said his nukes all got resisted.

Then for the second bat, it was located across a crack on the floor. Meaning it would take a long way to travel to us instead of chasing the puller directly. So I told the PT to stand by and run. And yea. 2 bat links. I’m surprised because I was expecting more. I told everyone to run but only 1 or 2 ran to zone. Puller died. Someone went to fight the bat that was pulled and so the mages stayed behind to support him.

I went to tank it. Died. Everyone ran to zone. BRD leader probably forced disconnect himself. But I’m damn glad he was killed before the servers kicked him off.

It’s getting very common now.. People faking disconnects to run away from bad PT setups… 

PT disbanded, and I used my friend’s char to PL myself until my empress band effect wore off.

I… may just end up PLing myself again… At least until 37… Or I can also abuse the power of the IME plugin and pretend to be a JP player.
