Some people are helpful! It was a SMN that helped me with WP, and a DRG that explained the mechanics in AK for me. I did that first run in AF gear with GC weapon and jewelry. I told them upfront it was first time, and it worked out in the end. It got a bit hairy to be sure, but everyone did their job and handled it. I've no issues with takin someone new, as long as they listen and are reasonably competent.
