Another mentioned seeing if I could try learning with their FC learning party but I get home at least over an hour past their time).(02-03-2014, 10:43 AM)ExKage Wrote: I'm curious about what I can do to start learning Coil. My friends/FC mates pretty much are one static group barring 1-2 people that aren't fully there. I don't think I'd ever get to go in with my friends since they outgear me and are well-versed already with T1-3/4. I'm afraid I'd hold them back as well, either from skill or under-geared.
Why do you think this? Have you asked them if you can join them, even just swapping in with a person for the first couple turns? Friends shouldn't have an issue with bringing someone new along. You've got the gear and you have the motivation; the latter is all you really need (though the former helps).
The rest is my own insecurity.
