I mean.... if all you retain from a video is a name... you sound a bit basic. You should atleast pick up on the flow of the encounter watching a guide and I mean a GOOD guide. Not the crap Mr.Happy dishes out day 1 that rambles on for 30 minutes for a 10 minute fight.No it's not false. I personally have zero efficiency with videos. Absolute. Zero. I learn only by practice. Maximum what can I do with guide - check Tankbuster skill title in some text info, that's all. Fun thing that after I had some practice or even clear, I can deal with videos then, because I know what's going on there since I felt it with my own experience (and even then I'm still bad with them).
And due to the fact I was able to achieve "red" diploma in University, I suppose that maybe I'm not genius, but I definitely not dumb and my brains are not "basic".
MTQ considered as good guides maker and yet her movies are just chaotic frames set for me. I would have more benefits from clearing videos with PoV from the role I plan to go, which I do sometimes, but all those "video guides" are useless for me. If the fact that somebody does things in the other way and can't do them like you makes those people basic for you, then sorry, but I'm glad that we are on different DC and will never meet each other in dungeon. Because I know I play on not bad level, and if somebody going to think that I'm dumb or basic only because I can't use "useful guides" - I don't want to deal with them in any area.

Just in this page alone we see two examples of people who just can't grasp that people might be wired differently from them in the head when it comes to "how" people learn.
Perfectly human reaction I suppose - to just dismiss that which they can't understand. The mundane do often reject the strange rather than try to understand it.
But I suppose that's why we have good mentors who understand this and try to empathize and adjust - and those who have no business wearing the crown being flippant and parroting "just watch a video" nonsense.
Many people in this world are very different from you in many ways. This knowledge will only serve to help you in every aspect of your life.
WHERE IS THIS KETTLE EVERYONE KEEPS INTRODUCING ME TO?
Except you are completely wrong on some accounts. Some folks learn just by seeing. You can show another person 100x and they will not learn without actually doing it. Please read up on learning and teaching styles. There are many studies and papers written on this subject. It will help you understand that just because something is easy for you or works for you doesn’t mean it will work for everyone. So many of the responses on these forums are egocentric.This is false.
You may not learn everything from a video, however, you can easily learn what happens at what time by watching a video. For example the boss rotation. If you are a healer you can easily learn the rotation of the boss by watching a video so you know exactly when to pop your strongest heals without missing a beat.
At the same time, if you are a tank, you can learn the correct time for a tank buster to pop your mitigation and avoid taking maximum damage. You don't need to be a genius to learn that, you just need to watch a video about the boss fight and have fairly basic brain functionality which I'm pretty sure everyone has.
I do this all the time. I regularly watch videos on Savage things for example so I know what the mechanics will be and I remember them and know what to do. The speed at which I react and do things increases as I go through the dungeon.
If I can do it, so can you, and person A, and B, and C, and everyone else.

If anything it shows how little players could actually teach in this game. From what I read, I pray I never get stuck with most of you in any relevant content.Except you are completely wrong on some accounts. Some folks learn just by seeing.

I'm honestly not sure if I can put into words how I feel about your attitude. Well, not without receiving a ban at least. Just wow.
