Someone mentioned guildhests. Those would be even more useful than the Hall of Novice, if only. If only a few mechanics weren't trivialized nowadays by overlevelling (ex. the ones that require you to kill adds, adds can now mostly be ignored), and if only they gave you time to actually read the instructions that pop up. The problem with the latter is that they pop up once you're free to go, while insted they should pop while you're waiting in the circle, and not let you get out until somebody has had the time to read. As someone who did them all already you don't need to read, but it would be just like when you're witing on a first timer to watch a cinematic.
