Managed to solo Scarmiglione down from 56% HP on DRK with judicious use of cooldowns and a well-timed Living Dead when things got a bit spicy at one point (eventually the damage started to quickly outpace my Souleaters). Never thought I'd see the day…if I was WAR or PLD, I wouldn't even consider resetting, but I'm glad I stuck it out anyway. Feels good, man.
The first time the tank just kept going and beat the boss alone it was cool now im like can you just die cause this is taking forever. It really sucks when the healer dies on an early mechanic and the tank just finishes the dungeon solo and makes us watch. If the boss is almost dead yah finish him off but if he has 75 percent health just die and let us try again.
It's so amazing to watch someone finish off a boss when others have gone down. Usually the people I've been with who pull it off are super chill on top of it. ❤ When I've seen it happen, the party is always super syched and celebratory. The glow sticks come out and everything. Heck, I have been that person as a DPS a few times. Such a rush😅
that doesnt feel nice though if you are the dps who died to unavoidable aoe attacks and then you have to wait for an eternity
the first time you see it it may be exciting 'oh that tank is amazing' but once you experience it several times its just boring. and when you realise its not because the tank is awesome but because the trinity is just broken it becomes pretty annoying
I always debate when I'm doing this, especially if the boss has a decent chunk of life left. but if they're at ~10% I will absolutely pull out my Thanos impression.
It's amazing how everyone here only has good experiences when performing this. Whenever I do it I get flamed for "ruining the dungeon experience". Sorry that I didn't collect vuln stacks like they're Pokemon. Idk use your eyes ig and you'll be alive next time. Not going to reset the boss just because you performed poorly 🤷♂️
It was once me, a Dancer, and the tank, a Warrior. I partnered with him and together we kept each other alive for a boss with 3/4ths his health. Healer died to first mech, poor partner died to the second. So me and tanky tank soloed the rest. It was beautiful.
As a healing, I always see tanks not using mits, I have to sacrifice my whole MP Just to keep them alive.. then If I let them die.. I get the "get good" msg .. fml
Once had my healer and 2 dps die once at the start of the fight (didnt see how probably all stacked on a aoe and died.) They all cwme back saw me still fighting it at 92% and said war just reset we will kill faster that way. I just said no and kept fighting. Spent the next 90% of the bosses hp hearing them complain call me an idiot and 1 even left. Im a petty individual. I stopped at 1% hp and started typing. Maybe if you all didnt die to the simplest mechanics jn the game you could have saved 10 minutes of your lives. Own up to your own mistakes rather than pushing it on others. Then i killed it and left. I usually dont type literally ever. Im a solo player i played level 1 through 80 dungeons with my warrior with the ai teammates.
One time, the group wiped on a boss that had ~90% health but the warrior tank survived and tried to solo him. We sat and watched him for 8 minutes only for him to fail near the end. Like bro if we wipe that early on, just die instead of making us sit there for so long lmao
and that is the point where you stop eating chips with the second hand and start playing with both hands. same kind of energy like driving with both hands 😀
I have seen this two times. Once was really cool and the tank obviously had a good chance of killing the boss. The other time the boss had way to much health and the tank was not that good and slowly got crushed by the boss.
My favorite DRK moment was actually soloing a boss when the party died. Bless the new Living Dead 😂
I've done this so many times as paladin. Everything heals us lmbo and clemency a glorified benefic lol

I feel like there's a certain threshold that makes the party go from cheering to hateing
And that threshold is when the boss is still at 75% hp

I've done this a few times as PLD and WAR… I don't play GNB enough to know how well it can solo, and DRK sadly doesn't have much self-healing ^^;
That’s fine on close kills but if it is over 10% on trial/raid bosses then just die. 😂
My first time was Garuda hard, as a squishy bard.
This has happened to be me on every one of the tank jobs, through multiple different dungeons.
I did this on hresvelgers trial dungeon rest of party died and I won, course I had to use LB along with meh immortal move but I won in the end
Been soloing Dead Ends for a couple weeks now lmao 😂
ive done this a couple times as DRK. its an insane feeling LOL
As a paladin I 1v1'd the doodoo boss in one of the dungeons starting at 35% and my 3 teammates were cheering for me the whole time.
NIN saved our POTD floor 100 run like this, yakkety sax ran around the arena spamming dotons and AoEs and Sustaining Potions.

Noone thinks you can't do it, they just don't want to wait the length of the boss twice whilst you play never punished ❤

it's just not possible to die as warrior as long as you press buttons
I did yesterday XD
Now I do not fear the scythe lady anymore. I know what she has in stall. I fought her for like 20 minutes idk :,D
The best thing is the other 3 members had to watch a lala with braided pigtails and a dress sprint with an axe in hands around the field
and all the rest of the team get bored … Not to do at all
My first solo boss was on amarout from 70-0. You never know how to tank unless you solo a boss in a dung synced
I did this just the other day on golbez extreme. My paly and the other tank war had to finish the last 5%.
I always debate when I'm doing this, especially if the boss has a decent chunk of life left. but if they're at ~10% I will absolutely pull out my Thanos impression.
I have seen this happen in a number of times.

I LOVE WARRIORRRRRRRRR
I always Nascent Flash my homies.

Soloed last boss of dead ends from 47% as a pld, scary shit.
I loves this it so true as healer sprout I’m so happy when I get team up with a warrior 😅

Live for these moments to show off

It's only happened once so far, but daaaaaamn did it feel good.
i do the same exact thing on Dark Knight.
I think most ppl who have mained a tank in FFXIV any length of time has done this at some point.
Completes dungeon
Remaining time – 10:34
I have seen this two times. Once was really cool and the tank obviously had a good chance of killing the boss. The other time the boss had way to much health and the tank was not that good and slowly got crushed by the boss.
feels good when ur drk survive and kill the boss with living dead on and later die
Nothing is as annoying as a stupid tank who is wasting everybody’s time.
It's always awesome
It's always awesome
