Last night, at around 11pm EST, I was leading a party of 6 as thf/nin thf/war(me) war/pld nin/war rdm/blm and smn/whm. We were finally starting to chain 3 mobs after we got the basic sata combos down and I communicated to the other THF what I wanted in pulling. But even then we were stuck for monsters cuz we had 3 or 4 other parties in the main sack room competing for Workers.

For some reason we would mess up sata with 2 thfs and 2 tanks but not the least of which reasons were that I convinced a JP player to play but told him he was {main} {katana} which may have meant to him, thinking back later, that he was second provoke. Anyways, we finally get the pattern down and things really start to pick up after 2 deaths and after I get some repl ppl for the ones that quit.

Well, then there started to be a whole lot of crawlers available after parties started leaving, at about 4am. And man we got just clobbered by pops. 2 times a pop appeared while we were fighting and killed some of our group. Worst of all, we had ppl disconnected for some reason in this certain area. 3 diff members got disc for one reason or another.

On a good note, there was this one person who raised us 3 times, Kensirou, who IMO ws extremely kind since I ws completely embarassed for having to ask him a 3rd time to raise and he still came.

Not bad overall though, I got 2 levels. Noone died more than me so I didn't feel too bad. I can usually save ppl if I do a bare back sneak attack, voke, and flee but it ws very late and after a while I think I ws rather dull last night. The mages take hits too quickly sometimes for me to notice in time. It was 6am EST when we quit.

This is for you THFs out there that may have an opinion on this:
I had the first tank voke, the NIN, and had my WAR/PLD buddy wait til I did sata and for shadows to run out to voke mob off which he didn't have to do, cuz mob always turned, but cemented the other THFs ability to do his sata. Do you think this is good setup or should the 2 thfs be on one tank? I have realized that I can still fit 2 thfs behind one tank and ws considering even using 3 thfs and one healer. The setup we had was plenty though for a usual chain 2 and I think even 4 was possible if I would have told everybody exactly what I wanted over and over again which I didn't. It ws kind of difficult last night organizing but now that I learned I am sure that if it is a THF pt I am gonna have to be leader cuz there is a lot to discuss with double sata involved. This is another point that is difficult is how to tell ppl what to do without upsetting them.
