AK is meant to be ran before you get darklight. This is why the gear you get from it is lvl 60 and darklight is 70.

I think the best suggestion would be to find a friendly LS or FC that suits you and make friends to play with there.
I think it's ridiculous when people queue for say CM or Praetorium through the duty finder and try to force first timers to skip through cut scenes and what not. If you are trying to speed run they should form their own group...seems like what the majority does on my server anyway.

I think the problem here is that the game is still really young. It has been 1 month (eh, 1.5), which, in MMO terms, is -brand new-. As of this moment, these are the -only- ways to get the best gear. This, I'm sure, will change as new dungeons and content come out.
That being said, I have done many many speed runs, and yes, people are horrible. But, I've seen a lot of people who have actually been exceptionally nice, or simply don't make comments at all if mistakes are made (both good and bad I suppose). It is the weekend, so you can expect more people to be on, and it will probably be bad. My point is, give it time. I know it's bad, I've felt shitty from it more than once, but I do believe it will die down.
Just do it like me, put end game on hold. Find nice social FC and start helping the players that arent 50 yet. Making some friends is the best way to enjoy endgame to the "MAX" xDThey are hyper-agressive and have completely ruined end game for me. It's exactly as you said: MAX DPS GOGOGOGOGOGOG or GTFO. No one talks, all they do is yell "how dare you do that", "that dps is an idiot in crap armor". It's been one of the worst experiences I've had at any end-game.
True, but not a lot of us are lucky to get into a FC that have many active 50 players in it that are always there to help out. I have a few friends I can do CM, but because it need 8 people I need to fill it up using DF.I think the best suggestion would be to find a friendly LS or FC that suits you and make friends to play with there.

I dont understand why you need darklight or why ppl are so insane about it ( for speed runs yeah i guess i understand) but seriously Amdapor Keep is more than doable in full AF, i dont understand where people got the idea that you need darklight in order to do it.I'd like to note for Amdapor Keep, the gear requirements are a little higher than one would expect. That doesn't mean they should heckle you for it, but at least mention to you to get some darklight before attempting Amdapor Keep.
Did you mention on entry "This is my first time here, could you guys give me some leway and tips?"
Just stop doing dungeons or raids an level a craft an a gather an wait a month or two an by then all the toxic players will be gone. I haven't touched my DoW since this game launched for the same reason.
Pretty much this. I have 3 friends on ff14 but there not as active as I am plus where to find these friendly players isn't that simple. I did post on my server forum to have people join but ill prob be lucky to get 1-2 to even consider joining our guild. If there is a friendly FC willing to recruit players new too mmos and on ps3 then id like to know.
Subscriptions are dropping soon. I guarantee you that most of these toxic players will be making their way back to DOTA 2 or whatever circle of hell they came from.
I have done AK so many times...I loathe it...but it comes down to that many people seem to think that speed leveling via fates, quickly completing story line to get access to AK, and then immedietly queing up wearing lvl 29-40 gear + having absolutely no clue how to play their class is acceptable and expect to be carried...or wonder why people are so upset. At very least, new 50s should go buy a lvl 50 weapon for 5-10k....I mean I put in the effort to run lower instances for some gear like WP so why can't others This whole argument can work both ways.
For sure you do NOT need partial or full DL gear to do AK but I do suggest having lvl 45+ gear since that should make you and your group's run much smoother.
