Making baby step progression and learning how things went. Putting on my big girl roo's and ignoring and turning a cold shoulder to the cries of the occasional jerks of "hurrr durrr you are the suck!!" even after telling the Duty Finder Party I was learning.

Eventually I made it through to a point where I was confident I knew a majority of a fight and I sent a tell to the leader of one of the "experienced only" Party Finder people. I told them what I knew, what I saw and what part I didn't know. They let me join and even lowered their item level requirement so i could join. We wiped once and the second attempt we all won.

We have the tools to learn fights without lieing or sneaking into Party Finder parties. Its just in using them we have to be ready to learn and in the case of Duty Finder, being able to turn on a stoney side at the drop of a pin while learning^o^
