Carry, or not to carry, that is the question

Every once a while I see new/returning player complain on the forum about "server's dead, no /shout pt going on, can't find a party to do any content, especially delve. No LS accept me due to lack of good gear and I can't get gear without delve clears, every delve pt I joined sucked and failed, this game sucks blah blah."

As a XI mega fan, I wanted to prove to those ppl that delve really isn't hard with PUG and game don't suck, or at least not suck for the reasons listed by them. Also because I enjoy playing COR/DNC as a DD, and there really aren't many situation that I can do 13k WS on COR/DNC

over and over and over again using incomplete/gimped LS set(I don't think I can hit 15k goal for a while until I get better gear and get better at light shotting+ positioning though). I make pt usually to test and practice my performance in this zone as a DD.

So I've been making Ceizak 1~5+boss runs fairly often, with 1 DRG, 2 COR/DNC and 1 RNG setup, Muyingwa usually die in 2~3 min, even if alliance carry 2~3 leeches needing win. If pt is buff/debuffed properly, I'm usually ahead of MNK BLU on bee. Sometimes I'm ahead of Upukirex DRG sometimes behind, and pretty much always behind a RNG on bee.

I figured that alliance can carry 2~3 leeches needing win, so usually* there would be 1~3 leeches don't have win. The issue is, those leeches usually have extremely low performance that other ppl in the ally are doing more work to make up their subpar performance.

Quite a lot of "need win" DDs parse 6%~8%, some did 6% even with an Oat. Once I had a DRG parsed 0.4% and another WAR parsed 4%+ kept dying due to not turning away from shark spikes or doom aura. Eventually it turned out that those who did 15%~25% or even bring multiple character are doing 3x more works for leeches for pretty much no benefit. 

Further more, there are ppl that can't get in nor get into my alliance due to lack of proper job/gear/performance offering to pay for it. So me and friend decided it's probably better to charge gil from those ppl. Since we can totally beat delve boss with only 2 party or even less with such output.

I listed the price at slightly lower rate than RMT /shout, again, because I see it's a completely waste of gil to pay 20M for an NM that dies in 2~3 min. 

Then I got hate tells from ppl who used to join the run, for "using them to make gil", even though I've never make 1 gil from selling wins and pretty much hand out every wins for free to leeches in the past.

So there, now you see why returning players/newer players/can't get win.

1. They usually have subpar performance to begin with, due to lack of experience and gears. Any alliance worth a salt will ended up carrying them by doing 3x more work and get nothing in return. Since most ppl with enough gear/experience will cap on gears and gil gain from doing delve is bad.

If I invite them for free those who did 3x more work isn't happy for doing more work for them.

2. If I put merc ad on AH and sell wins, those who used to join run would start spreading false rumor for using them to make gil, and start assuming past leeches are buyers and I ate all the gil.(So I'm being accused for being greedy WHILE doing good deed to help ppl getting free clear)

All that made me feel I've been helping ppl get free win and still being accused for greedy for pretty much no reason. On the same time have to face one million casuals on the forum complaining about they don't get invite to the pt and can't get win. Some ppl who complained never even join the run, just making assumption and spread false rumor by reading AH comment.

Anyways Afania rant + rage mode on D:<

Fuck you if you make false assumption about other ppl and spread false rumor. I spent most of my time putting together a delve pt and helped tons of ppl for free clear, and have yet to make 1 gil from selling win in my life. D:<

And fuck you if you complain about ppl being a dick and not taking casual/new/returning player to delve runs. If you want invite and win don't come and parse 1%~4% thank you. D:< Wins don't come to 1%~4% worth of DDs, they belong to ppl that can do 15% or 25% thank you. D:< Nobody want to do 3x more work for other ppl's free win if they don't need delve already.

And fuck you if you never join my run but still spread false rumor and point fingers, basically you have 0 right to even question whether I use ppl to make gil or not to begin with. /blist added for such dick. D:<

Rage rage rage rage D: Rage at the reality that being nice and hand out free/cheap clear still being labelled as greedy and using ppl D:

Btw, after many runs, I think a Ceizak ally can take 3 CORs with 1 /WAR and 2 /DNC in each pt. Something like MNK MNK COR/WAR COR/DNC. If debuffed properly, COR usually parse top 2~3 in all 6 NMs and usually ahead of MNK BLU Upukirex DRG on bee, that makes COR a DD on it's own. A COR/WAR with another COR/DNC doing haste samba should do even more dmg than COR/DNC according to spreadsheet, and every DD in that pt gets 4 rolls. 

But I don't think I can try that for a while, I've decided not going to do this zone for a while unless someone paying the ally a bunch and ppl stop making false assumptions and spread false rumors about others.

Well, maybe after I 119 every AF and have confidence to do 15k last stand next time.
