Before you power level noobs

I agree. Though I had no idea the battle system was so poorly constructed for parties. How does one fight in a coordinated manner? Is it just plain do whatever until it's dead? It seems kind of all over the place. Same goes for small things I have done in this game (like behests). Just seems really sloppy.

There is none until End Game, all parties consist of agroing as much as possible within a undefined limit (until party suffers lots of deaths or wipes) and then proceed to slaughter said mobs in a chaotic flash of magic, arrows and maybe a few hits from a melee or 2. most mobs last less then 10 secs and are pulled by the 3s-6s and sometimes more depending on level and ammount of mages in group and mob repops.

I JUST got out a party on my 19 MRD and all I did was run around voking mobs linking them then bringing them to a central location and our thms and conjs nuked them in 2 shots, repeat until 25. I felt totally useless cept for the few times I was able to pull a mob away from aoe and solo it down on the side.
