    So, actually had an interesting experience with a dps that wouldn't pull their weight a bit ago. Leveling roulette put me(Mch) into Haukke Manor with a Pld, Ast, and Blm. At the first boss I saw the animation for Fire 2 go off, and went to look at the Blm. This was their rotation throughout most of the dungeon. B1>B1>F2>repeat occasionally using Thunder 2, and sometimes using Blizzard 2 without walking towards the mobs to hit them. After the boss fight I decide to check out what classes the Blm had leveled, 50 blm, 15 arc, and acn and one other class were 15 or lower. So I asked the blm, "(name), why are you staying in umbral ice?" No response. Half way to the second boss and they're still playing the same, so I ask again, "(name), you know you're gimping yourself playing like that, right?" Still no response from the blm. At this point I wanted to vote kick the blm, but there was loot being rolled on. Half way through the 2nd boss the Ast speaks up and apologizes, saying the blm is still pretty new to the game, so I ask if the blm is on a ps3/4 and the ast says she's playing on pc. I ask if the blm would like some advice on how their job works and the ast says sure. So after the 2nd boss died I type up a quick explanation about the extreme basics of how a blm works, astral fire for damage, umbral ice for mana regen, use fire till you're low on mp and than transpose into umbral ice to get mana back. Also that fire 1 does more damage than fire 2 unless there's 2+ targets and blizz 2 better than blizz 1 against 4+ targets. Still no response from the blm. On the final boss, the blm still does the same thing, but atleast knows to turn off 1 of the lanters. At least the ast wasn't rude for me trying to give their blm friend advice, and realized that I was doing more damage so the balance went to me, but I guess this question would be more so aimed at Mattelot, is it "elitist" for me to want someone to have at least basic understanding of how their character works, even when the rudest thing I did that whole dungeon run was contemplate trying to vote kick them?
