SE needs to do more to help bad players

happens when 90 percent of the game is a steam roll. Same with Ex Primal steam rolls and everything you can do unsynch to take the fun away. Those mechanics are what made the fight fun and i wonder how many people don't even know what most of the fights were actually like because they just jumped in a quick clear for mount or wonderous tales party.

Or do like every other MMO on the market does and allow players to do so without getting banned.

FFXIV has the largest population of absolutely awful players and is the only MMO that I know of ( I could be wrong feel free to correct me) that doesn't openly allow parsers, people to correct each other for better gameplay, and or simply removing people without like a 2 hour cool down.

Problem is the whole catch up stuff. You can easily get any job you don't know how to play to max level and have almost the best gear available, enabling you to join content you have no business in joining. That's why "older" MMOs didn't have that problem. You wanted good gear, you had to earn it. Casuals and RPers could mind their own business, you wanted to be hardcore, you had to earn your spurs by getting god and being allowed to join a raid guild, and maybe get decent loot after weeks of raid attendence as a rook. You saw someone in raid gear you knew they knew their shit inside and out. In FF14 you can't tell, I've seen lvl 80 people in full Ronkan doing less DPS than me being level 70 lol.

You have improved your gameplay without the game offering tutorials to you. Why is it that you improved while others didn't?

Think about it.

That's personal ambition, which many people don't have, since it yields no better reward. You can spend the whole week RPing, then spend one day queueing up for EXs or Eden without knowing anything about it till you get a party that drags you through, and get the same reward as someone that actually puts in effort. Participation medals are a flawed model.

Update guildhest with newer mechanics, or older ones. Not even asking for a whole battle but I would love mock battle/simulations of savage fights, aided by Trust like npcs. There's time where I'm certain I got a mechanic down but being able to go back in, while the static is done, to familiarize myself more would be great.

bad players are always bad. People that want to improve dont need others to tell them.

edit: did someone just say healers do little dps, lmao

That's why we need more gating. "Git gud or you'll never get to play content X and acquire gear X and title Z". If they decide to stay bad that's fine, but they're at least not hindering other players that way.

Tank - Mitigate damage as much as possible.
Healer/DPS - Avoid taking damage that can be avoided.

That's part of the role.

This is not required to beat any content as healers got rescue. No, I do not genuinely believe this, I believe this as little as I believe that healers are supposed to do 0 damage while they just stand around tossing the tank a regen once every 20 seconds.

Say that to me again when dps drop aoe on the entire group for uptime on innocence extreme, blow a meteor, and wipe half the group. There aren't enough rescues in a day to deal with stupid.

What's the point? Cause back in 2.0 I never stepped into a guildhest until after I killed Ultima Weapon.
