    Dude, I feel you. I spent a long time trying to make sure I was well geared before approaching new content and watch videos for the primal battles. But the other day I decide to try Garuda for the first time and mention at the beginning that "it's my first time but I've watched several videos, feel free to offer tips" and someone immediately leaves. Of course that screws people over for trials because you can search for new members once you're in. =/

    Fortunately I found a shout group, lied about my 'experience'' and off-tanked the adds to learn the patterns. It sucks, but no one, and I mean no one, wants anyone new. It's terrible.

    AF sets are good enough to get into WP (even AK, but new players should do some WP).

    The problem is the endless grind that is the farming. Really. Needing to do the same instance more than a dozen times is absurd (and you need to do it about 6 dozen times, per job).

    I am a tank, I tell my party that it is my 1st time. If my party throws me a temper tantrums, gg, I take the 15m penalty. Have fun waiting for another tank =D

    I've run into new players that throw worse hissy fits than any "leetspeedrunner" I've ever come across.

    And please be patient with the people running CM who get irritated, it's our 100th run through this week and there's no comparable alternative to farming Philosophy stones. We may get a tad cranky from time to time that we have literally no other choice than to spam this dungeon 1000 times so that we can spam coil 1000 more times. ._.

    Seems to be a good amount of people who are endgame but don't like the speedrun go go go method. If on each server, people could form into groups who have these like minded goals, it might help them avoid having to play with the speedy people and the speedy people can pick from the people who like that kinda thing. I'm kinda surprised that the speed runners are using DF to find members instead of using it with their own full party.

    Also, I am very curious as to whether Japanese servers have the same problems mentioned in this thread, with their endgame dungeon players too.

    Its not even End game, i've been coming up against assholes and morons since before Brayflox (hawkke manor) i think it started for me, after my extra 60 days are up no way am i resubbing, and i thought Guildwars 2 was bad this makes that look like a happy fun time..

    It doesn't help that my delay/ping issues makes these dungeons epically harder than they should be..either.

    Oh my, I feel for you bro.

    Our Linkshell has made a point of taking the time to help members through Castrum and Praetorium when they are up to it for the story. We let them have the experience of watching the cutscenes in the environment intended. Some of us take the time to re-experience it and watch the cutscenes as well. No rush.

    Why? Because it's worth having someone around who appreciates the game's story, there is something satistfying from mentoring someone new through the content, plus it's an easy/stressless/fun 100 tomestones with friends.

    OP if you were on balmung id toss ya a LS/FC invite and we would help ya with endgame.

    I feel ashamed sometimes to be a part of the NA community because of their attitude.

    Hopefully with time they will either mellow out or opt out of even playing the game.
