Corvic - DRK? or DUM?

I was the Samurai in the OP's post. A few words regarding Corvic.

His Blue Mage subjob was not even properly leveled. (DRK49/BLU20, if I recall correctly.) Amusingly, he felt spamming Bludgeon for 12 damage and nuking Water II for 30 damage was his prime contribution to the group. He frequently lost all of his TP to kneeling for MP after every fight, but when he did use it, he'd miss anyway.

Honestly, being an asshole, I would have kicked him once I realized he seriously wanted to use a Blue Mage sub. But he didn't bother to let us know he was going to sub it until he showed up at Garliage, and Beka (the party leader) didn't want to wait on him even longer. He said the only job he could sub that would be properly leveled was Monk.

After the Thief and Corvic left, however, we moved to Quicksand Caves with the JP Warrior and added another Samurai (Acute) and a Warrior (Tagrineth) and did fairly well until we decided to break for the night.

To sum up, however, Corvic is perhaps the worst Dark Knight playing, and makes zero effort to improve or be advised by others.
 
I was the party leader, and NIN, in the original post.

I invited Corvic because he was the only person seeking and we had been looking for a sixth for some time. I didn't notice the sub, and he didn't mention it until we were in Garliage Citadel. He was horrible, a "never invite again", but with no one else looking and having somewhat limited time, I decided to make the best of it.

We camped behind Gate 2, doing Beetles, because alot of GS had been leveling in the basement, and BSTs, and I was tired of fighting for mobs and also had no interest in bats. We had been there almost an hour, and the xp was decent, not great, but we did the best with what we had, when suddenly "hey, I know this is abrupt, but I g2g in 150 tnl" from the THF... who I had also had to argue with on the way to camp that we didn't have time for him to go look for the Garliage Chest. Being about 1k tnl, and knowing that Lili, the WHM I static NIN with, was too, and being that we were in a camp that it's hard to get replacements for, I was angry that he gave us no notice, and did not bother getting a rep. Rather than reward him for such actions by getting his level, I booted him.

He whined to me that it wasn't his fault, his parents were kicking him off, but I didn't believe him. I am glad I didn't. As he said above, he did not log off, but was doing a promy for quite some time. Obviously he didn't have to go, he wanted to go.

But, as Kreoss said, we replaced him, moved camps, and got some decent xp. I added a whiney lying THF and a gimp DRK to my Blist, and everyone went their separate ways.
 
Wow Beka for being an experienced player you build shitty parties and are a jackass when you're the leader.

To OP: Sucks for you should have said something earlier to Beka about the shitty ass DRK. Not all DRKs are that bad, but don't play with him again. Why would you even replace for a linkshell Promy-Dem? What is even worse is you had NIN for Promies WAR deals more damage double attack and same amount of blinks. That reeks of failure all over it. Also Ethelwulf just sucks right out I don't even know how his Ranger is above 60. Players in general since the release of X-box 360 players are a whole new mass of dumb newb (NOTE: I said newbs not all Xbox 360 players are newbs there are some good ones, but very rare indeed).

LMFAO. I said most and it's true. I have noticed a lack of skill in gamer play when 360 was released. All the spoiled lil kiddies got their game and were like ZMG! I PLAYED FFVII! FFXI WILL B JUS LIKE DAT G-IZZLE! Then just play horribly and piss us off who are actually good at the game.

lol i agree with that but the reason i have the 360 ffxi is for the reason its looks better than the ps2 version which i have and the other games along with the 360(unfortunately i had to send my 360 in to microsoft so they can fix the problem with it and i don't have to pay a dime :D). so far i'm a lv 65 PLD, though that doesn't say much, i've been updated on job roles and what not so i'm well aware of the game style people in ffxi are used to seeing.

That's good and all I understand people wanting to play the game for better graphics than ps2. You're not a newb for that I was generally speaking of people that joined the game as a newb when 360 came out. A majority are incompetent at what they do, but from what I have noticed everyone has been sucking at what they do lately. So I should not jump off the board yet. I have noticed it mostly from RDMs falling off of Refresh cycle alot, but that is a different topic of people just trying to rush to 75 with out learning the job they chose or bandwagoned to.

oh, how the word newb annoys me so...

don't ever talk badly about noobs. they fuel our society.

who else would serve as easily-manipulative little squirts who will believe ANYTHING...

Instead of wasting time flaming them, sacrifice them to he O' Mighty Cactuar.

Unlike you who is forever stuck in newbness I try to help the ones that wish to learn. The worst part is there aren't any that want to learn because they read the guide on Allakhazam on their job and think war/whm is still a good combo and they know everything about the game.

Hm. That sounds famliar...

Now, I'm not a noob though. Since a noob is someone who just started the game recently, yet I've been playing the game for longer than you have.

Mmm no you haven't. If you have it must be the longest time taken to get 1 job to 75. Oh wait only the newbs will party with you that's right because no one else likes you because you are a newb Pandetech. Interesting isn't it? Like always you have failed. I never used an Allakhazam guide in my life for leveling a job.

Um...

Oh God...

A 13 year old is gunna argue with a grandpa.

Sigh...

Here we go:

1.) How could I own the largest social linkshell ever recorded in Quetzalcoatl if no one likes me?

2.) I never took the time to level a job past level 75, mainly because I always helped out with the noobs. As a matter of fact, I never even summed up the will to get past G1.

3.) I never said you used an allakhazam guide. But just out of curiosity, how would know it exists if you have never laid eyes on it?

4.) I proved that I was not a noob, and you realized that. However, you could not disprove my contradiction- so...you call me a noob just because you think it personally damages me. \

5.) It gets a bit more intricate now. Now then, the text you have so impulsively left down upon the Quetzalcoatl community makes it seem as if you think I had a level 75 job. Your ignorance does not become of any significance to anyone until you mention "oh wait, only newbs will party with you."

a.) I'd like you to name someone who is not experienced and has worked their way up to level 75.

b.) Just because I have played longer than you does not mean I have a higher level than you. I have just most likely had more experiences than you have in the game, and therefore I'm more experienced.

6.) Tell us now if the word newb is the only word in your vocabulary. Because so far, your inability to press the enter button twice to seperate different points is pretty gosh-darn annoying. Your upper level sixth grade sentence structure isn't helping to ease my eyes, either.

It isn't worth it if you're just going to come at me with the same insults over and over again. You can say I'm a failure, and I can say you're wrong. It could just go on a never-ending cycle if I wanted it to be so.

So let's throw in a hypothetical situation:

I am a failure. I'm a trashman. I failed my children, etc. etc.

So what? You called me a failure. Tell us something we don't know.

Pande how long have you been playing? You never got past G1 for helping newbs? I doubt you EVER had a huge linkshell because I have seen only a few people wearing your shell. I doubt you even have gotten past 5-1. You want to experience what I have done? Start leveling... oh wait... nevermind you wont get parties because we don't like you. You haven't proved you aren't a newb. I know the alla guides are there because I have people told me they used guides from alla. Have I seen them? Yes because there is actually a decent fishing guide on there from when I was doing fishing. Shows how much you know about the game because you said you never summed up to level past 75 when the cap is 75. Pande you are a moron you wont ever get past 50 because none of your "friends" will help you get past G1 because they can't get past it themselves with out help from high level people or did a giant alliance together to get the items from Lichs, Exorays, and Bombs to get past G1. Tell me what have you been doing with your time and your parent's money on this game? Just been fighting Shadow Dragon (Mission 2-3) and failing?

Obviously you think I am newb, but if you look at my profile you would clearly see I have done more than you. You wish to claim me a newb on what grounds? Why did you even bother to come back to FFXI because you don't have friends in real life that aren't too busy cutting?

Lol Yet you go to Jeuno no one has PAndeFaerieMagicBender or w/e it's called equipped. SE should add DUM just for Pande.
 
All Pande ever did was get n00bs their ballista lisences so he could kick their asses over and over again with his shitty gimped monk.


Pande GTFO, you are the biggest fucking noob in this game. Thank you baby Jesus that you realized this and don't play any more.

Wow Beka for being an experienced player you build shitty parties and are a jackass when you're the leader.

I build shitty parties? That's news to me. Most parties I build last several hours and get everyone multiple levels, this one happened to have a really gimp DRK which I had no way of knowing how bad he was until we were at camp. Once he and the thf were gone and we got new people, the party did just fine.

As far as being a jackass when I'm leader, you can ask most people I've partied with, I am very informative, polite, and I pay compliments when people do a good job. This particulart thief was a pain in the ass from the start, constantly bitching about everything, wanting to run off and look for treasure chests while we were moving to camp, etc. When he said "I g2g in 150 tnl" with no warning, that was the last straw. I wasn't going to give him 150xp for fucking the rest of us over. And obviously he didn't have to go, or he wouldn't have been in a promy right after he left.

How about you try partying with me once before making as accusation like that?

It's not hard to get 3 levels in a day in the 30s-50s. You can get 5 levels a day when lower. I've done it before hell in a party that I took to behemoth's dominion when I leveled war to 37 for paladin I pulled 4-5k an hour everyone dinged 3 times in that party. Not that hard to grind low levels and get multiple levels in a competent party.
