You guy's might enjoy the pictures most, they tell the story pretty nicely. In short being BRD i try not to be overly picky and do what i can to get exp. Our party setup was NIN MNK WAR DRK BRD RDM to start off with, you can tell from that chat below that obviously it wasn't chain 100 or anything.
I highlighted in red everything that went wrong on why we couldn't pass chain #25. i was polite and to the point, but just said screw it and continued.
Then the RDM left... NIN left... DRK left... they invited a BLU SMN and another NIN, when there was 2-3 SAM's seeking.
It ended like this as you can imagine:
I love how he asks "Why are you calling me gimp?"
tl;dr -> Don't ever go to nyzul isle birds with Devilbane or Deathstrike ever, unless you like to lose more exp than you gain, and waste time + take up a nyzul bird camp from a group who could potentially be doing 25-30k/hr instead of 5k.
