Another reason I think this would help players, now that I think about is, is because there are a lot of other players out there who either don't have the right FC, or a good group of friends (or friend) that could sit down and help them improve. Granted, the raiding community is small compared to the overall player base, but there are some out there who could use some in-game help that gives them active feedback on their performance. Riyah made a mention of a grading system a while back. It could be subjective, depending on how the devs overtune it, but I could see a grading system having some effect if its paired with something meant for training and improvement purposes. Obviously, grading wouldn't really matter much in dungeons and raids. But who knows, could attach a new title to this. It could fall in line, story-wise, with the WoL inspiring other adventurers to follow in their footsteps, and the training thingy could be utilized in the context of the WoL testing it before it is sold.
