    I think everyone can have slightly different experiences, and if anyone was upset about being carried during MSQ runs I had, it wasn't vocalized except for a couple instances. I also never had a run where people were telling newbies to skip the CS either. The two runs I've had since the update haven't had any toxic complaining, more so just vocalization of annoyance, then laughing at the ridiculousness of the CS.

    At most, I may queue up on the weekends if I have time but it's not really feasible for me on the weekdays with my work schedule. I wish they at least made the CS skippable if there's no sprouts or in unsynced.

    You don't need this MSQ to get used to new classes. In fact, because most are over-geared for it and it can just be blasted through does the exact opposite when it comes to learning a new class. Your time is better spent in an instance where mechanics matter if this is your intention. There aren't many environments less stressing than 4-man dungeons when it comes to group content. Also, if your intent is to learn your class, you shouldn't be chatting with peeps during combat. If you can do this, you're not being pushed.

    Most players are not going to, or even be given the opportunity to vocalize their dissatisfaction in a Castrum/Prae run, but you don't need to go far to find it. The instances are notorious for having extremely relevant CS in terms of the WoL becoming the WoL that a newbie cannot see outside an inn save they get left entirely behind and unable to participate in battles. Even if you haven't heard the voices, trust me, they are there.
