    The instaquit probably has more to do with the fact most DF parties are full of new players that don't know what they're getting into, haven't looked anything up, and are just overall unprepared skill wise. It's essentially a blind prog group with a bunch of bellow average players. I'm not condoning leaving but that's most likely why they do it, not because they don't know how to clear the fight. It's also part of the reason why I don't support ex trials in the mentor roulette. There's such a big gap in commitment between a 2mn guildhest and a full lockout Ex trial. Those of us that like running ex trials and savage to help others do so in the PF. At least people have an idea of what they're getting into there.

    Those that clear current ex trials will clear these unreal trials, simple as that.

    Mentor roulette exists so you can help new players and not for your easy clears, if people got some traininig and you ran out of time, then you have served your purpose and should feel happy that you helped others.

    Mentor Roulette doesn't exist to carry people who can't learn to follow basic instructions.

    After 2 wipes with zero improvement I'm leaving.

    I'll stick around as long as the group is improving but if they are not, I'm not wasting my time.

    Veteran healers don't care if we need to heal, but right now we don't. We want interesting things to do during the downtime other than a 30s dot and a single filler spell that hasn't changed from lvl 4 to lvl 90.
    Dead DPS do no DPS. Raised DPS do 25/50% lower DPS. Do the mechanics and don't stand in bad stuff.
    Other games expect basic competence, FFXIV is pleasantly surprised by it. Other games have toxic elitism. FFXIV has toxic casualism.[/LIST]
