    Whether you buy the guide with the intention of using it only for the hidden weapons, items, dungeons...matters not because those are basically personal reasons for finding it useful or not useful that varies on a case by case. Those guides still had basic combat tutorials right in the front of the guide for you to use. Literally, the first couple pages of my Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD remaster guide has information regarding the characters, the combat system, and the Sphere Grid on the off chance that the person playing FFX just keeps smashing the [X] button to bypass it.

    XIV gives you subtle hints of what and how you should be using your abilities through your job quests. That is your tutorial, not to mention, telling you to read your tooltips. We also have the Novice Hall now, if that's not enough. Players need to start paying attention to what's going on or what the NPC's tell you to do, instead of thinking that they can coast along remaining ignorant about everything else.

    Because, I honestly and sincerely doubt that SE is going to make a tutorial for players on how to do EX trials and Savage correctly in the detailed way that everyone wishes it to be. At least with a parser, it would tell you that A) "You're either good enough at what you do to not be a burden to your team" or B) "You're not" based on the readouts. If you're meeting Suzaku's enrage at 20% and each DPS is only shelling in 3,500 at best according to the parser, then you'll get a clear indication that your DPS is the problem of the party, not your tanks or healers, and they either need to improve in quality for the team as a whole or they need to be shipped out to sea if they refuse to improve.
