That's going to happen no matter what you do when you have random people involved. Just accept the fact that there will always be bad players and some can't be helped. If you are going to take raiding seriously, then you wouldn't be using the DF for them. Even in a multiplayer game, I don't need to be treated like a baby that can't think for himself. If I need help, then I have so many choices to pick from. It's not the end of the world if you suffer a wipe every now and then.

I migt be too old, but wiping for several hours on one boss till you beat it always seemed like a part of MMORPG experience. Now players disband right after first wipe and that's difficult to understand. They rather wait for a new group, which in my opinion quite often takes longer than letting newbies learn the fight and that's kinda sad.

Just yesterday, after only one wipe I been left alone in A1, and I had to ponder about "finding new members option". The feature exists to get new members, but if you click it in an empty instance, it kinda feels like doing something wrong, because most of the players leave right after they join in.

That's why you got PF and FC for things like this. DF is a massive gamble made to only get random people together as quickly as possible.

Then there's pre nerf steps of faith...

I've been in groups that failed nerfed Steps of Faith. And it wasn't due to lack of knowing what to do, it was because nobody wanted to do more than afk auto-attack Vishap.
