I am also tiered of the "no one will take me in if I have no experience" crap. When content is released, no one has experience. Form a group, get experience, learn. You are the only one holding yourself back, stop blaming others.

NPC help is better than no experience at all, which is what players deal with currently. Sure, it's scripted, but then they at least have first-hand experience with things like Conflagration, Twisters, or Blighted Bouquet. Basically a version of "watch a guide" for those who learn better by doing than by watching.

As for forming a group and learning... easier said than done. Finding seven saints willing to sacrifice precious time on wipe after wipe is harder than any fight in the game. Personally I make a point to try and get content done within a few days of release, barring second and third coil as I was in the midst of a move at the time and so I've just accepted that I won't clear it. But I do try to help others when I have the time, and listen to the shouts in Mor Dhona. It's rare for them to go anywhere.

I agree this game does need a practice mode, too many people are unable to do mechanics in things like coil, and extreme primals.

Honestly it shouldn't be so hard to do, just make guildleves a practice mode for trials/endgame that teach you about mechanics in the harder fights for lower rewards, and make it 4 man instead of 8. The guildleves wouldn't KO you, but would keep a record of mechanics missed. At the end of the trial you would be able to review the fight with notes on mechanics you need to improve and hints and suggestions.

Clear party must have 50 hrs of practice mode or dont join
