I am a level 50 (Ilvl 74) Paladin who's barely scratched level 50 content for a few reasons but one primarily large one : I can't stand duty finder and its extremely rush-focused mentality. I would go into my personal issues and experiences with duty finder as a new level 50 but that not only detracts from the point of this topic but also would give off a pretty bad first impression.

With that said, here's some key points about myself.

I am an extremely shy but skilled player who prefers small group content to large group content in MMORPGs but have considerable experience in both environments. Speaking generally, I consider myself a very skilled melee DPS-role player but that doesn't mean much in this case for two reasons : I'm not even maining as a DPS class here, and the larger hurdle and eventual benefit for me in FFXIV is experiencing fights. That said, I consider myself fairly quick to learn fights.
