I'd like to resurrect this thread from 7 years ago. What is the quickest you have left a duty, and why? 'Cause I just had this happen to me and a couple friends. Our story isn't anything overly special or unique, but get this.
Some background first. I'm a LVL 96 WHM (also main SGE and DNC) and my other friend is a LVL 100 DRK (who also mains PLD). DRK friend is a veteran who has been playing for about 3+ years, and is also the one who dragged me into this incredible rabbit hole in the first place. I'm a slightly older sprout who has been playing for about 2 months now. Our third friend is a sprout who very recently started playing the game and are already in the Stormblood MSQ. They're a LVL 71 RDM who also main SMN. My other friend and I have been helping them progress MSQ.
This morning, we were doing MSQ and queued for the Sirensong Sea dungeon. And low and behold, we queued alongside a THM.
DRK friend checks the THM's stats; he's a LVL 80 THM, has no BLM job stone equipped (obviously), and has a full LVL 1 glamour gear set. Both left and right.
With this in mind, all three of us knew it was gonna go awry, and we probably should've left and re-queued immediately.
The first boss was pure pain. The THM was rarely casting anything other than Fire II and Thunder I. He wasn't even using Blizzard I. He kept constantly dying due to low stats, which only put further pressure on me because I had to keep resurrecting him, only for him to die again soon after. It was a vicious loop.
We kindly tried giving the THM advice in chat, but to no avail. He wasn't listening at all. We're not sure if he was even reading chat.
We couldn't get past the first boss after a while and the three of us just left. We were not gonna give the THM guy his daily roulette. We waited for a bit and re-queued with a sprout DRG, who was also doing her MSQ like our RDM friend, and actually knew what she was doing unlike the THM.
How that THM got that far in the game, astounds us. I'm not even sure what to say.
