Observations From A Relatively New Player

[Anemone_Valesti]

Explaining the content is fine and dandy, except it gets annoying when you need to do it for every single run you go on because of a new player who is either a brainless zombie tunnel-visioning idiot, someone who just doesn't care, and then the person who simply lacks the skill to even do the mechanics.

If you're new, and sane enough to play this game well, then do some research. You're not the first person to play this game. You don't need to reinvent the wheel.

No....just No lol. Often times New comes with not knowing what is common Practice Bro. It wasn't until a few wipes on an EX that I learned watching Videos was a thing out of thinking to myself " There has got to be some kind of easier way to doing this ". Being new and having not experienced the difficulty...chances are that wont come to mind. Even then I didn't know that it was something that was common Practice among raiding until seeing it often in Party Finder Descriptions.

Thanks for Proving the OP point though. At the risk of coming down to that level...I got to say that watching a Guide of someone else (Who crazy enough, is most likely doing it without a guide) before even TRYING it a few times is the Brainless thing to do, and expecting the new to do so is just bad lol.

Sadly I watch guides before doing SOME of the stuff in this game (To Avoid Players Crap), and FOR ME Its not satisfying upon completing it. Did Shiva the other day though...got my face blown off by one of Shiva's attacks. I adapt so it only took 1 Wipe to down her...but boy did it feel good with beating her without some dude in a video telling me all her attacks, and where to stand exactly as if I couldn't put it together myself...

Point is, Expecting NEW Players to play content as if they have been playing it for X amount of time is some really Foolish Bleep.
