    This again? Seriously? No. Farm parties are not the place to go for your clears. They are to farm. Yes, when I run a farm party I want people that have previously cleared. That's because "farm" does not mean "wipe six times in a row to completely avoidable mechanics and then finally beat it with 25% echo". "Farm" means "go in and get multiple clears for the loot drops with minimal screwups". I'm all for helping new people clear as long as I know up front what I'm getting into from the start. Learning/clear parties are all over PF on my server all the time.

    With that said, if a player has been through the entire fight but not managed to get the clear (that party that falls apart after a wipe at 1% ftw), all I ask is that they PM me and explain the situation. Take some initiative instead of trying to ninja in. I'm willing to give these players a chance to show me that they know it. If they actually do know and make it through the fight to the end, clearly they do know it and are welcome to stay with us for the rest of the farming run. If they blunder around and wipe us several times, I'll ask them to go get more practice.

    Unfortunately there's no way to tell that someone merced their win until you get into the instance and see that they don't know the mechanics of the fight, just like there's no way to tell that someone without a clear is actually experienced until you get into the instance and see that they DO know the mechanics of the fight.
