Ever get in a party where everything was working well... but there was something obviously wrong with it? I was just in one of those parties.
NIN/WAR, WAR/NIN, THF/NIN, RDM/WHM (me), WHM/SMN, BLM/WHM
They tell me to just enfeeble the monsters and refresh the mages. Fine, i can do that. I spam my own debuffs, keep the mages refreshed, pulled out some sword attacks. no biggie...
WHM kept complaining about mana problems... I check the log and she was spamming debuffs as well. I let it slide once. She stopped spamming debuffs long enough in between to make me not think something was up.
Then she complains about mana problems again. Sure enough, she was spamming debuffs once more. I already adjusted what i was casting to not overlap what the NIN/War was doing, to let him keep hate for his debuffs and not waste my mana. Party has a close call, but since i was able to keep some mana in reserve we were okay.
Third time WHM complains about mana shortages, i call her out on it. party member almost died if i didnt have mp in reserve. then the guy that almost died tried to defend her. She almost let him die if i didnt stop debuffing and refreshing to heal his sorry rear. I finally had enough and let them sit in valley of sorrows, and walked home.
They told me what i was to do in the party then just ignored it to do thier own stat ups... freaking ticked me off because we almost had party members die. Two times they did die because i wasnt fast enough on my macro to save them.
