Generally speaking, you don't have to, barring her Shriek 1HKO.

That said, it sure helps.

Either way, yes; duty finder generally isn't bad at all. I've had maybe one bad DF experience (which was kind of a riot; long story short tank kept insisting we kill bees on Demon Wall, ragequits when we keep wiping even after I suggest ignoring bees, first tank to rejoin we just ignore bees with and literally no problems whatsoever), but otherwise it's been fine.

I think noone said all DF parties are bad and full of quitters and whiners, but it takes just one player to possibly ruin the whole run: after team is not full healer/tank can easily leave and dungeon will end on this. There are multiple ways to make party not full, such as leaving yourself, kicking someone, "disconnecting", going afk, bullying someone so he would quit, etc. Older players queue into DF expecting this to happen so they will be less frustrated when it happens.
For me DF is the alternative if FC/PF team is not available, same as for many other older players. Also it is the place to experiment and train myself or new people from FC/PF before we start the full premade team recruitment. So there are many weird things to be expected if you queue to DF.
I am gathering gear to tank extreme primals now and DF will be my training ground until i get the basics. Also i need to experiment on different strategies for garuda to see which one suits me best. I know people will say horrible things to me when i will fail, but it is better to fail random people across all the servers and learn from this before i go with a premade.

Don't be reluctant to do what you want because of something that might happen ^^

I have done T1 and T2 so I know them quiet well, but it's just that it feels like everyones just more angry with eachother during the harder dungeons, while if you do a wanderer's palace run people tend to be more relaxed and chatty

Maybe I just got into groups with mean people.
Like this one time when the tank wanted to skip trash mobs and asked if we should do that and just take out golems, so he asked if we should do that, I replied "Sure" no one else said anything so he went for it, apparantly some people didn't know how it worked so we ended up getting all the trash mobs plus the golems aggroed and then people started whining like crazy "why did you do that blahblah" and quit before we even got to the boss

"All DF PTs are NOT evil" - I believe your grammar is incorrect. Did you mean to say "Not all DF PTs are evil"?
Because some of them definitely ARE.
Not all of them... but enough.
I don't even play on a NA data center and hope that this means I can avoid a higher percentage of assholes. But I still won't go into the DF alone and prefer to avoid it altogether. I've met a few really cool people in the DF. A few.

In general, I don't think it's the case that whole DF parties are evil, but rather that you get That One Guy who is evil. The one who starts whining and complaining and tossing insults around whenever things don't go perfectly on the first try. The one who THINKS he's saying what everyone else is secretly thinking and is the only one with the cajones to say it out loud, when really no one agrees with him at all and his foul attitude is causing morale to plummet.

Don't be That One Guy. It never helps.
