I've been playing the free trial for about a week now and I got to the quest step where you have to kill a mudpuppy and I, Boo Boo the Fool, did not read the quest details whatsoever and didn't realize you were supposed to use a key item on it beforehand.
Ten minutes later I'm lying on the ground wondering how this overgrown salamander managed to whoop my ass so thoroughly and calculating how much gil it's gonna take to get back here. But then, a kind stranger appeared! They rezzed me and gave me some sort of buff and I thanked them afterwards but I'm honestly not sure if I was speaking in the correct channel since they didn't respond.
I took a second stab at slaying the dirt dog and, to my surprise and delight, they came back to heal me throughout the fight! Most of it was me fumbling with the menus trying to use the key item and getting interrupted every three seconds and not realizing until afterwards that I could have just put it on my hotbar.
So, after a frankly embarrassing performance, I finally managed to kill the clay canine! I spammed jump to convey thanks since that seemed like a more universally known form of communication, and kind stranger did the cheer emote in response. I think my heart may be a few sizes larger now. Shiki Neneh if you're out there, you have my eternal gratitude!!
