Silly question possibly, but do non-ADHD folks just…remember the tactics for every boss fight you’ve ever done?
So when you find yourself randomly queued for a particular boss fight then you execute every mechanic with quiet confidence?
Because I have to watch and rewatch tactic videos multiple times before daring to try a new boss, and if I don’t do it at least weekly then I rapidly forget the mechanics. Hence, when I am queuing for random Trials and High-End Instances (for the Dawntrail relic quest for example), I am frequently faced with fights for which I have no recollection of anything useful.
This often does not go well in practice and other players are sometimes quite… direct in their feedback shall we say and I feel very ashamed and useless. Often I am trying to pull up a tactic video on my phone and desperately watching it whilst doing the fight at the same time, which has mixed results.
So I just thought I’d check whether this is an issue unique to me and my stunted frontal lobes, whilst presumably everyone else (bar a few other ADHD types possibly) is able to instantly recollect every mechanic for a fight they did once, four years ago, with crisp efficiency?
Any suggestions as to better manage this issue would also be welcome. I don’t think I could research every single fight, just in case it comes up, and if I did then I wouldn’t remember them anyway. I could try to work out how to make a playlist on YouTube for easier access maybe?
