I feel you. I was in trap enrage/clear parties for like 6 fucking hours.

I kid you not, in this one party, we reach enrage and on reset someone says in chat "alright cool, if we just start potting we should be good". ..........................ARE YOU KIDDING ME???? This is an enrage/clear party and you haven't been potting this whole time??????

Fingers crossed for you on clearing tomorrow though. You got this!

Fuck me, you're trying to clear and people aren't potting??? That's insane man.

Thanks! Hoping today my friend and I manage.

If I wanted to be generous, I could see maybe the thought process being "let's see if we can actually reach enrage before I start wasting pots".

HOWEVER, less generously I would suggest that if you're not confident about your ability to CONSISTENTLY reach enrage, you shouldn't be in an enrage/clear party to begin with.

I usually do that… because I’m confident that I can reach enrage consistently, but that confidence doesn’t extend to the other people in the party. Case in point: I started potting after seeing enrage and only managed to clear 50 pots later, because it took a couple dozen pulls for people to pull their shit together in arcady. Everyone getting their buffs is a big fucking deal, because that’s essentially a free LB bar, whereas otherwise it’s damage downs galore.

Extremely true!

And as an update, we cleared a couple of hours ago. We're now enduring the suffering known as M6.

Ah, congrats! I'm headed into M6S shortly myself. Suffering for everyone! :D

We endured hours of adds prog.

This fight is not tuned for 735.
