What do you do for fun or to challenge yourself in this game outside of Progression Raiding, Tome capping stuff, or RP.
Do you PVP?
Do you PVE?
Do you just not do anything?
I've found that it's been incredibly fun to do stupid things with the people in my FC. Stupid or just out of the box type of things.
6 PLD + 1 WHM + 1 SCH for Turn 6. Get Rafflesia to 50% while goofing off and letting people die. (Or eating dinner)
I've mentioned we farm raids such as T8 and T9, etc. Well, we decided to farm T7 but picked up some by saying we'd do T9. Right before this one person drops out cause he wants to make gil for his Zodiac so he does T9 merc runs. Unfortunately, the person selling got people outside of the LS to do the run and they failed. For 1.5 hours. We told him we'd do it. We did it for free. We 7-manned it. We got it in a two-shot because we didn't quite adjust very well for the iceballs and at 1% I faced Nael alone without anything to keep me alive. So we did it again without issue.
We've now decided we'd do "pony" runs and others since we're going to merc some things. As such 7 man everything and practicing it. Have someone die and see what happens. Play in classes you aren't as strong in that specific content. Someone mained WHM? They have a DRG. Someone main-tanked or DPS'd Nael? WHM. Someone DPS'd only? SCH. Solo heals! I am anticipating the fun of SCH'ing T9 (I've done it before once but we did it as an 8 man, no fucking way I'll solo-SCH it though). Or PLD'ing it. LALA SCH DEEPZ YO (in british accent) going PLD! Etc. This way even if we have only 9 people up and there's no tanks... we technically do became the usual BLM etc can heal!
It's so fun to do content while challenging yourself with people who don't go "ugh" or facepalm. Or you can hear it in their voice that they're getting frustrated. Or that just facepull things cause they're tired of it all.
