MTQ tends to come out with fantastic guides shortly after content goes live, and they're typically no longer than 5 or 10 minutes each, breaking down the mechanics piece by piece and explaining them. I definitely recommend looking her up on youtube if you need help figuring out how to clear a dungeon.(01-29-2015, 03:29 AM)Dasair Wrote: ... That will likely be me too, not gonna lie.
There are so many neat end-game glamours and things that I want, but I just. Â The dungeons. Â The mechanics. Â The absolute likelyhood of being That Guy; the one they are just like 'who let this nub into our raid?'
It is, indeed, minorly terrifying. Â I'm still trying to slog through the MSQ, tbh. Â And I don't feel I'm anywhere near done yet; only just got past King Mog.
Sooo I'm kinda with you on all that.  u_u  *takes up an oar for this boat*
Yeah, that was pretty much me: 1) I'm a ranged DPS. 2) I have no idea about any dungeon mechanics at all... 3) I will probably get vote booted instantly.
So, yeah, that's probably about 80% of the trauma right there. Nothing quite like being humiliated on the Internet.

Unfortunately that list is exactly what I was looking at. ;w;
Getting caught up to the ilvl is probably the hardest part, but now that they have made it so that dungeons always drop gear it's a bit easier to get caught up. I would recommend going through the story as far as you can, doing every dungeon at least once until you come to a point where your ilevel needs to increase, at that point start farming the highest dungeon you can to up your ilevel. Additionally you could run Labyrinth of the Ancients to at least boost yourself to i80-ish, while picking up solidery gear on the sides. Then you can move on to Syrcus Tower for i100 gear while still picking up Soldiery gear.
I'm always happy to help new or returning players, so if you need someone to run with you toss me a friend request, my display name here is the same as my character name in game. I can help as either Tank or DPS.
