There are a number of things they could do to help.

1. Emphasise Stone Sea Sky etc. when unlocking EX and Savage content. Perhaps having the first unlock of each expac have the quest take you there and award you with something for completing it.

2. Job quests. With future job quests being one at the start and one at the end of an expac. Have the first one feature a battle that walks you through the jobs mechanics. Serving as a kind of Hall of the Novice for higher levels.

3. Not personal damage meters, but personal 'scores' for certain duties. Only displayed once the duty has finished and only features your own score. It gives you a star rating for DPS(/healing) contribution for your particular job, and there's an achievement for getting 5 stars in x amount of duties.
