So last night I was 6k tnl to hit 40, and I couldnt wait - finally out of those slow 30's and hitting a milestone.
LFP, and within an hour or 2, I get an invite. Shot right over to Crawlers Nest, and then suddenly the PLD we had just logged out - not a word. A quick /sea all in 38-40 showed us there were 3 other lfp....all wrong jobs for us though. We needed a tank.
So one of the other DD's offers to go a change to his 37NIN, and we would invite a new DD. I got the DD from my LS, and had to wait for the NIN to run back to Jeuno, change jobs, shop for clothes...then run back. Well over an hour it took for the party to even get started.
Once all together and ready, we head to the beetle camp, check it out, all empty. Started fighting, getting good xp, popped empress, went well for a bit.
Then, along comes another party. Sits themselves right in the beetle zone, by the soldier crawler bit. Pulls slow to a crawl, when we check it out, they had a 2PL, who was taking care of links and they were just murdering the zone.
We did still get some pulls, when the beetles popped our way. But then, the entire party spread out and we just couldnt contend - only 2 people could pull in our party without risking death, up against an entire party that would pull - inc the WHM. They didnt care, they had PLs.
My party were getting disheartened. Numerous /say yielded nothing but a million /checks and other camps had been taken by now. The our DRG dc and never came back.
Fast forward 30 mins, ANOTHER party appeared and stuck themselves in the tunnel - right between us and the beetles. They also had a PL...that was the last straw, everyone moaned and groaned, and disbanded. I had 2.3k left to hit 40.
Oh, and to make things worse, halfway through the battle with out last beetle, the NIN decided to 2hr it, before it has died or knowing it would have finished it off. So we were left taking down a beetle
with 4 members and no tank.
In the end I thought id solo the last 2.3k in Rolanberry or something. Went there, and taking down an EP mob took most if not all my HP/MP, for a measly 24-30 xp. Then I subbed my gimped NIN, which took em down quicker but left me without Warp.
Wish people would learn some manners. If you want a PL fine, but dont go monopolizing the zone and ruining it for eveyone else.
