Don't Wake My Mobs!!! - Final Fantasy XI :: Dreams in Vana'diel :: Community

And if you do, don't try to say you didn't and cuss at me!

Add being slept the first time around, and woken. I'm not going to include the other three times it was successfully slept and woken, but you get the picture.

Then, we exchanged some tells. A friend of mine was in the PT, and apparently he was her friend, too.

In the end, if you're going to be an idiot and wake my slept mob, don't be a jerk and deny it, then blame death on ME.

BTW, part of the name is shown so people can see it isn't ME waking the crawler.

See, when people wake up my sleeps, I just warp or escape. I don't bother letting myself get hate back.

Yeah, if a party genuinely fucks around with the way I do things, forget them.

There was a Catoblepas pulling in Bibiki once on the second battle when the tank was AFK.

I ES+Sleep2'd it, asked what we should do, and after one person said "D2 please" I D2'd them, waited about a minute (Sleep wore off) and warped.

Well first of all, Kurayami doesn't wake things. Neither does Provoke. The last few parties I had with a good nin who used all his debuffs and provoke on slept links before waking them up so hate would be on him at the start of the fight instead of me.

But ... you have highlighted in the log him using MELEE on the link. Wtf is that? It's a lot harder to turn around and accidentally hit something with your sword than it is to accidentally cast a spell on it with your newbie <bt> macro. And hitting it DEFINATELY wakes it up. Why in the crap was he engaged on the link?

Edit: didn't read that right.

Woot! Tricked out Jei.

I didn't really have any doubts that you were making this up, but when I read the line about taking advice from a NIN75, I just /sigh'd and immediately knew you were 100% right. "Trust me, I'm a Lv.75 <job>," line just gets me every time. "I know everything because I'm Lv.75."

I have a running joke with one of my oldest game friends. Back when we were on our first march to Lv.30, he was WAR, me RDM, everytime I'd Sleep the mob, he'd wake it up. I still joke now that I worry if I sleep a link, in a party he's not even in, he'll jump out of the bushes and wake it up. lol

It's been a while since I've had problems like that in a party. The only problems I have is the DoT Monster. BLM does a "Bio II" <bt> and suddenly I'm on full time kite duty.

**I** have no 75 jobs. But another PT member was very gently trying to give advice who WAS a 75nin. And he wouldn't listen to a damned thing and was rude to him.

EDIT: Thanks everyone for understanding. Maybe if that idiot sees this post (probably won't), he'll understand how he screwed up.

I know enough (nin34) to know kurayami doesn't wake the mob, but he was attacking it and casting that and other spells (some of which were elemental DMG spells).

At the end of the PT, I got mad because two of us died (would have been more if I hadn't nuked the hell out of the beetle before the crawler came after me). I KNEW he woke up the crawler several times, and everyone else did, but he was saying it was MY fauly and calling me a bitch. So, I D2'd everyone in the PT except him.

"Of course, I've never had a dumbass waking up the add either." LOL

i never use DOT spells when there is uninvited visitors in the camp. using stun/flash/paralyze/bind/gravity/slow is fine. there are times flash/stun on the uninvited guest can buy enough time for another sleep/lullaby to go off.

When I sleep a link, or have the next mob in exp chain slept at the party, sometimes the monk, ninja, or thief gets stupid and attacks the wrong mob, waking it of course. Do I immediately try to resleep the mob? Of course not. That's when I let the mob beat down the nub that woke it until it's 100% clear that this person is no longer engaged to the mob at all.

If they woke it from sleep once by being a dumbass, I'm not going to stick my next out by trying to resleep it, only to die from the mob after it gets woke again by the nub.
