So bottom line is, look at what you might be doing that needs improvement before assuming there's a problem with the game. Applies to all classes and jobs.
I take what self-proclaimed "experienced" players say with a grain of salt since I see so much conflicting information amongst the ones that deem themselves "cream of the crop."

It's hard for someone to look at what they're doing that needs improvement because most don't understand what they're doing wrong.

I've played MMOs that introduce required quests that require you to use certain abilities that you acquire which helps someone visually see how they help them. Tooltips are not a great source of information... and this is coming from an Astrologian who learned Royal Road. Each person learns in a different way. Some call it "hand holding" while others call it "mistake proofing."
