But damn it people need to stop saying that watching a video is mandatory. Videos are so stupid, since the team make ups are different, strategies are different, etc. the only thing videos are OKAY for is explaining the fight mechanics, but not necessarily how to deal with them. If you want to watch a video, fine. But if you want to experience an epic fight and solve the puzzle on your own, don't feel like you NEED to watch the video. Just run with friends or make a blind PF.
The most fun I've had in a dungeon was when I ran Brayflox HM completely blind with some friends (who had already been before), and they gave me no hints at all. That last boss had me laughing so hard after I wiped our poor little group. It's really unfortunate to see people demanding that you watch a video before attempting any content through the duty finder. Party finder should be allowed to be as picky as they want, but don't take those expectations to DF.

I will say though, if you are new to content, speak up. That's what dooms groups a lot of the time. I think a good chunk of people are afraid to speak up as they think they'll either get a tongue lashing or get kicked.
