I try to maximize Shiggles uptime, but inevitably The Radical Dreamers always spirit him away!

Everyone needs a pocket Shiggles. Now if only I could get him to stay in my pocket! Curse his raiding static! /shakes fist I'm okay with a pocket ina too. :3
Honestly I need pocket dps though >.>;
I get spoiled when I run with you guys.

There's a point where it has to go both ways, I suppose. Even if I use all my defensive cool downs, and Abyssal Drain, if my healer can't back me up when I need it, none of my cool downs are going to matter, which is where the trust in your healer being able to do their job comes into play.
I can trust in my defensive abilities all I want, but that will only get me so far. I've had healers in ilvl 200 gear do better than those in shire gear. Because they took the time to learn how to adjust, which means I can trust them to do their job, so I can do mine. I just go off that I very very rarely die in dungeons, and when I do it's almost always been my fault. And I run enough dungeons that to believe I just get lucky and never get bad healers would be outrageous statistically. Maybe it varies by data center but walking with confidence that between me and the healer whoever they are we'll live has always served me well.
Unless the dps take a year to kill everything... after a point it's on them not the tank or the healer.

>.> I was recently parsed (re: a few days ago in an A9S run with "pro runners"), in which I scored a parse of 1972 on ninja (third place) against the summoner's 2468 (first place), they all had BIS gear too.
Made me feel like I was "adequate"

go into dungeons or content and experiment?
this is how I been learning healing in the past week+
:v
worst scenario, you dont get the commendation or get kicked out of group or just get told you are trolling. I help out by taking extra damage to create the authentic "random tank" feel.

The NIN in my group has similar sentiments. When he joins 5-6 DPS Zurvan EX groups that can't skip Soar yet in our static we do standard composition of 4 DPS (not even an ideal composition) and we skip Soar EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. (aside from like twice during the first hour of progression).

I'm sure it's much different than what I actually see, but he seems so carefree/reserved about it.

I find healing more stressful to think about than actually do... My attitude tends to be "you only really NEED 1 hp" though which I think makes people panic at times...

Quote: The official Twitter account for the MF Bunko J imprint's editorial department previewed the 22nd and final volume of Noboru Yamaguchi's alternate-world fantasy light novel series Zero no Tsukaima (The Familiar of Zero) on Friday. The volume will ship on February 24.
The novels' original author Noboru Yamaguchi passed away on April 4, 2013 after a two-year battle with cancer. He had planned to end the series in its 22nd volume.
Sou Yurugi, editor-in-chief of Kadokawa's (Media Factory) MF Bunko J imprint announced in June 2015 that the light novel series will continue. Yamaguchi had planned to finish the series before he passed away in 2013. According to MF Bunko J, he dictated the remaining plot of the series, including its ending, from his sickbed and entrusted it to the editors.

This is a thread that I found on another website I post at. It can be really really interesting. I thought it deserved a place here.
Post your random thoughts for the day here, or anything else that intrigues you.
For starters, is it possible to give constructive critism to someone who doesn't have a neck? I totally just walked by a girl who didn't. Someone isn't getting a necklace for Valentines day!
And who decided black and white can't be colors? I want to say a racist. I really do.
