Was I out of line? (Holminster Switch)

Was I out of line? (Holminster Switch)

Holminster Switch. Load in as tank; saw no first-timer pop-up, so I say hello and send it into the first big pull. I notice my health dropping quicker than normal, but I'm not quick enough to hit Superbolide or use a potion before I die, followed by both DPS. The healer manages to get me up, and we barely salvage the pull.

I barely survive the second pull since I planned on using Superbolide and a potion for it, but I notice the healer is casting a lot of Benefic, so I chip in, figuring that must be the culprit, then the exchange in the picture ensues.

Tell me, was I wrong? I wall-to-walled the rest of the dungeon no problem once the replacement healer came along!

(By the way, there were also no oGCDs except for Earthly Star, but I didn't know that until after the fact)

Edit: Yeah guys, obviously I was using my own mitigation. Are we seriously commenting in such bad faith that we assume nobody who had a bad experience can play the game?

And I didn't invuln as early as I could because there's literally no reason it should have been necessary. The AST had all of their cooldowns. I at least knew essential dignity and stellar explosion hadn't gone off. Either of those would have saved the pull.

Transparency Mode Is Suddenly Louder

Had airpods pro 3 for about 4 months now. So far the transparency mode has worked perfectly - as if I didn't have earbuds in at all. Starting today, it instead amplifies every tiny noise to insane levels. It's actually making even sounds from outdoors uncomfortably loud. Any idea what happened/how to fix?

33 emergency tactics casts

Just had this scholar in the Grand Cosmos. Noticed the literal 0 damage done during the first boss and (nicely) called them out on it. There's a lot to unpack here:

-Emergency tactics on cooldown

-Resummoning their faerie 18 times

-Physick

-3 whole excog casts

-No, those rezzes did not come with a swiftcast

-1 whole art of war cast

-0 dots

At least they used a couple broils after I asked why they weren't doing damage.
