It is time I ask for advice here.
First, a little backstory...
ARR had a really rocky start, but by the time I got to the end of ARR, I was killing it.
Heavensward was your average playthrough. However, it is where I started being enraged by solo duties. well, I have ALWAYS been bad at solo duties.
Stormblood, it was like a roller coaster. However, by the end of it, I was killing it. The last four Omega raids seemed like second nature to me by then.
Shadowbringers, Here I either do exceptionally well, or horribly bad. There is no middle ground. I cleared several solo duties first try. Two are the exception.
Why am I asking for advice?
Well, I have been way under par for most dungeons in Shadowbringers. Holminster Switch is the one I did exceptionally well on. I did exceptionally well on all the trial fights as well, but the rest of the dungeons, all hell broke loose.
I did watch MTQCapture on EVERYTHING in Shadowbringers, but actually doing it is another story.
It is NOT my DPSing. I know how to DPS. I start by applying my DoTs, energy drain, and I make sure that all my burst damage moves (OGC) are available at the start of each boss fight.
Main reason why I ask for advice: After TOTALLY sucking ass on Amaurot, where the healer was refusing to raise me during boss fights because I was only a burden. Also, he had some obnoxious "Pay attention mechanics are happening right now" in decorated text and 20 sound effects macro.
It was not that I was not paying attention, I just could not figure out where to go in most cases. MTQCapture was not clear enough on the proximity mechanic on the first boss in Amaurot. It was a different safe spot each time and I was always furthest away from everybody because I had the "get away from me marker"
So, what improvement advice can you give?
Also, on a side note. I do want to apologize for being enraged on the subreddit. You guys have actually been very helpful
