Well, I watched videos only for HM Primals and I'll watch one for BCoC, always went well.
But I still type "first time here" when I'm on first time, to make everyone know that I can make a mistake once in a while.
Never had problems with AoEs, even if I am on PS3 with a slow connection in south Italy.
I hate people justifying themselves saying "I'm on PS3" because they fall in every AoE they see.
I saw dds get hit more than once by Landslide and Weight of the Land and say "I'm on PS3": the best thing to do in that case is saying "I'm on PS3 too, and I'm a healer. Use the analog stick."
