Is there a way to design end game content that doesn't lead to a caustic community?

This community...its not the worst, but take this for example. Tier 4 of coil is brain numbingly easy to me, you can do it in Darklight if everyone is on their stuff, knowing how to heal , how to tank, how to dps perfectly. But for some reason I find a ton of players, now that we're all in ilvl 80 plus on the legacy servers, that just suck. Just plain old suck, taking too much damage as a tank because they aren't popping the abilities they should be, not doing enough dps because they refuse to cap accuracy first and are just picking whatever gear "looks cool".

These kind of problems may look superficial but what they lead me to believe is that this is a lot of people's first mmo, or that there is a separation between the old school styles of "be the best you can be, look it up when you don't know the answer" and "omg this cool *puts it on*, I just downloaded a patch, but didn't read the patch notes, what was in it? Tell me I'm so selfish I must be told, my time is to precious to read, explain to me the whole game, and how to do it, even though I could just read and actually play".

The people who refuse to look up anything, refuse to take help from people, and just end up pulling us all down create the parties that are super jerk "can't die once etc" because we get tired of wiping 8 times to something we view as being easy. Its sad these jerk groups tend to be better than regular groups ; ; it shouldn't be always that way. I shouldn't have to be a jerk to ensure I get good people with good gear, who know their job.

Just how do we get people to wake up and smell that this content is so easy, and they are turning us into jerks by wiping all the time >< just saying, I don't actually like to be a jerk in game, I will teach a person the fight how ever many times it takes, especially if they are in my fc, or are someone I met who is willing to accept my help. But its just sad that when I join a pf for a jerk group, it tends to be the best group ; ;
