    Re: What's your pet peeve in FFXI?

    ... anything known yet officially? I'm trapped at work and am wondering if I'll be doing a Dyna run tonight or playing something else... maybe watch a movie or something.

      Sad to say, though, that Cassandra' and Helenus', since they, combined, only actually provide Magic Accuracy +5, they have technically been obsoleted by (Incubus Earring+1)x2, two NQ Incubus Earrings only falling one point short. And since Moldavite Earring already exists, that basically leaves little to no reason to camp those any more, at least not for me.

          The port in to Nyzul Isle facing you the wrong way when you zone in. No matter how many times I do it I still run forward only to curse at whoever thought the view of the sea was more important than not frustrating the players.

            gah. Lamina and Hyakinthos for Lava/Kusha's Rings, I'm 0/20+ on both of these guys with TH3.

            Someone shoot me. Why do I keep camping these?

                Don't forget the ones that pop in preferred XP camps, like Qoofim and that bird in past Ronfaure...

                  Qoofim is annoying, but he spawns a bit more north, so you can avoid him. He is a bit away from the actual camp itself. And the bird... It doesn't aggro so no need to really worry about that one.

                    Unforunatley the other day our THF decided to pull it anyways because he wasn't paying attention. Quick death for our party. As soon as I saw the name pop up in the pull macro I knew something was wrong...looking back on it now though it was pretty funny I guess.

                    EDIT: Just realized this was a good opportunity for a pet peeve - People who pull mobs without bothering to read the name first...

                      I did something similar way back in the day. I was pulling on drk in Gustav at the bones camp. We killed fast so it was pull as fast as you can. I always tried to be at max range for casting spells because of low health aggro. So I ran in, positioned myself, targeted the closest mob, and cast. As I saw the text scroll, I knew I screwed up. I had just cast on Taxim. The party decided to kill it which was a HUGE mistake. lol

                        I was breaking a buddy's latent out in the Cape... and yeah... i totally admit I wasn't paying attention... there was a bunch of sexy talk in LS and I was having a good ole time then I noticed the crab I'd pulled was seriously kicking my ass. Um.. yeah... this happend at least twice ... maybe thrice, idk. Like I said... there was sexy talk happening. =P

                        I might have lived if I'd noticed the name before I was at 300-400hp.

                        GD these NMs in regular xp/FoV areas. What gives SE the right...er ... oh wait.

                          Lol. My party pulled it too, but lukily the tank was lvl 75 and the puller was able to kite it long enough for lvl sync to wear off. Was kinda funny. And now the puller knows to not to pull a monster with out checking its name.

                          Still, I don't know how people can pull a NM by accident...

                                Yeah for real. You get in a good rotation and you know exactly where the next mob is going to pop so you just run around in that pattern. If the NMs placeholder is in that rotation, you'll just target and cast/ranged without even thinking.
