Garuda after patch

You know what the problem is?

It takes zero skill to level 1-50
People either spam leves or get power leveled. They never get to flush out how to play their class as they level.

Bam, 50 hits and now all of a sudden you have no clue how to play your class and interact with others and not be the weak link to a 8 man party.

This is why PUG's (pick up groups) fail. You get 2 people that know what they are doing and 6 people trying it for the first time that have no idea how to properly play their class. You can't win with this setup. No matter how many times you try.

They then run to the forums to cry/qq about how hard content is, or unfair, or be forced to play x job when they have no freaking clue how to play the job/class they just got to 50 in under a week.

How about we make it hard to level to 50? Require people to learn some skill as they level up?

I'm not so sure how accurate this statement is. Truth be told, most skills that you need to learn to use are North of level 40 or obtained in the first 10 levels. Also keep in mind that many skills are learned via the job quests. This means that there is a gap of 30 levels or more.

So I am not so confident that people don't learn how use/play jobs without grinding them forever. A more accurate statement would possibly be that people who respond to /sh are less likely to be heavily involved with static groups and therefore will have less experience on that specific content.
