    You clearance conditions will buy you players who bought clears and will still wipe your farm runs over and over.
    Farming party = tryout party? What?

    There is nothing efficient about a farming party comprising of 7 fully experienced with multiple wins to take a random new player over someone else who has full experience with multiple wins. The purpose of farming parties is to do multiple runs with limited mistakes, wipes, and within the fastest time. Adding a new player with no prior experience to this group results in opportunity costs.

    The people that want a "clearance condition" are being mentally lazy thinking that "cleared" equal skills. Your farm parties will supposedly "cleared people" will still wipe over and over. Then what? Put in the effort to recruit people with skill, and that can only be demonstrated by actually doing the instance.
    The one acting entitled is yourself. Stop acting like veteran players owe you anything and must help you.

    How about you put in the effort to make your learning party and recruit people to help you learn it? In doing so, you will be able to learn the instance. Don't sneak into farm or previous win parties to snag a win or learn it there. Now that is rude and inconsiderate!

    FFXIV doesn't allow much margin of error when doing fights. Adding a healer who keeps dieing means the tank will probably die during a healing check (ie: swarm), adding an inexperienced tank means the boss may point in the wrong way wiping the group, or the tank dies and adds can't be dealt with. Adding inexperienced DPS can cause DPS checks to fail like briar, hornet, or T7 adds. This doesn't even take into account jobs everyone has to do like avoid petrifying everyone, breaking vines, or lining up during Raff's laser attack.

    Farming/clear parties are built for one thing only. They gladly take you if you can do the basic strat and perform a clear without dieing. Otherwise you are just ruining what they were started up for. If you need to learn, start a learning party.
