Please implement something to teach players how to play

The experience with duty finder in NA is just a mess, honestly I have gotten a decent amount of nice people, but it truly is a dice roll. For every super fun run with sprouts with no expectations there is another with some weirdo freaking out on people.

That definitely sounds like an NA thing and people coming from WoW or the average western game with 0 moderation where they are allowed to act like that and attack others because unless there's 10 people reporting you, nothing happens to you. Bit worried on how the OCE servers will be once they arrive since i ll be moving there for the better ms.

Unlike most western games though SE seems to actually read reports and act upon them if your report is genuine, if you ever get attacked you should easily be able to report that person just so they dont do the same thing to another person in the future, rules are a little weird as in you apparently can report someone harassing someone else but you could report their emote spam

Imo to see change, you have to change the attitude of THE COMMUNITY, especially the western one and the only way to fix that is to be what they would call "report happy", report bad behavior and slowly more and more people will know there's serious consequences if you attack others unlike most western video games, there has already been complaints from people with bad behavior that SE bans you for the "slightest" thing, as long as people keep reporting and remind people that there's actual moderation in FF14 things could change over time, dont let toxic people free, it might be hard or tiring to have to write another report, but it is the only way such people learn because they are used to the average no consequences western game.

I take toxic elitist over toxic casuals any day of the week. With both might be jerks, atleast the elitist know how to hit buttons so they are easier to ignore.

Trust me, we know, it is quite clear you would prefer to play with people like yourself, after all gamers have historically ignored enormous red flags and terrible behavior if that person knew "how to hit buttons" or was entertaining.

But sorry, some of us have actual standards when it comes to people instead of only caring about video game performance and nothing else.

For instance, look at endgame dungeons on ARR's release and shortly thereafter, such as pre-nerf Amdapor Keep or Pharos Sirius. Look at dungeons now.

Myself and many friends talk about this lots. Me and my partner were going through the game rather slowly and decided what the heck, let us try the Binding Coil. That whoooole series is fricken intense! There are so many neat levels in there with large winding paths leading up to the boss encounter placated with various hazards of deadliness. Even the trash mobs are deadly! That is just the normal mode.. apparently the Binding Coil normal is considered Savage difficulty?

Speaking of Pharos Sirius or as I am calling it Sirius wipes because every time I get this one in roulette there is at least one wipe. The fire sprites in there are still deadly. They cast a spell called "Banish". If you pull too many of these and no one interrupts Banish it will wipe the group.

Later floors of Palace Of the Dead are most interesting too! If you have never tried doing huuuge chungus pulls on floors 50+ of potd I suggest trying this. You will have twenty things beating on you that all do mechanics. Gaze attacks, multiple tank busters, roomwide sleep spells, abilities that ignore the tank and target random party members.

I would loooooove a dungeon designed with trash mobs like that in it.

I play on NA servers and have seen very little issues on leveling roulette. I haven't seen a true bad apple in at least a month, but they are definitely out there.

We have seen some most awful stuffs and heard stories from poor friends experiencing it. I think our luck is just terrible. ;P
