Stop lying to your groups

[Billie21]

I wonder about something... Are AK, Titan HM, Coil and all these other endgame dungeons not mentionning "one or more members of your party is new" at the beguining, when it's someone's first time?

I can't see how the team can ignore the fact that one membre likely doesn't know the fights when the game itself states it right from the start (that's in reply to the one mentionning people doing a speedrun without explaining anything nor pausing).
Same reason, I can't see how someone can expect to keep the lie when the game sells them out automatically...


Personally, if I always stop before the first boss battle and simply ask "Does everyone know the fight?" before stepping inside the room. Takes all of 2 seconds to type, and can save so much time (compared to finding out by wiping that some people had no idea what to do).

Correct, it doesn't say that. Most likely because the full message is someone is new, completing the duty in a timely fashion will award an exp bonus. But with Lv 50 content, no one is earning any experience.

I have met a lot of tanks who will rage quit in DF if someone admits to being new....

The Level 50+ areas do not give the 'New Person, Bonus' warning or reward. The last area that gives that notice is Cape Westwind because it is Level 49-50. Also, that warning may not be valid in side dungeons as the only thing it truly means is that there is a person who has never finished the dungeon.
