Figuring out basic job rotation to deal damage is something you do before you queue up or join PF. Learning the fight mechanics is something you do before you queue up or join PF.

It's the players who need help the most that are in their little bubble of 'im doing fine stop telling me how to play' that need that bubble popped when they choose to step into a raid/trial encounter.

Also, as an aisde, it's that "raiding player-base like Ellatrix" that provides the guide vids to fully explain and get YOU through a fight, and also that figures out optimal damage rotation and constantly provides useful help for those who ask on forums.
