People seem to throw around "it doesn't teach you your class" as if learning your class is a long and arduous journey that requires 40 hours of grinding to do.

Learning a class is as easy as going into the forums, reading for 30 minutes, then maybe practicing for 30 minutes.

The mechanics of MMOs aren't something special either...the people that learn how to avoid stuff learn it quickly...the ones that can't, generally never do.
