The thing thats really bugging me though is once I hit 50, which was yesterday - first job at 50 yay!, is that people just really don't seem to care about those doing these things for the first time.

Ever group i join, I announce that I'm new and no one says anything or bothers to explain a fight. Even though i looked them up on YouTube before queuing. Also people go so freaking fast that its hard to keep track. I really don't mind all this as I've been playing MMOs for long enough to have tough skin and not be bothered by people but damn if new 50's aren't shrugged off.

Not trying to derail your thread, i just saw an opportunity to rant and took advantage.

By all means, rant away! I get what you mean though, when it comes to the fresh 50 things, people are just speed running these days. It can get overwhelming for new people. If you ever see me on, feel free to poke at me. I don't mind running old things with newer people.

Also, congrats on making it to 50! \o/

For instances like those, you'll be surprised at how many will jump to your aid if you simply say: "Free Soldiery." Throw that up in PF and all the spring water huntin' Zodiac Brave wannabes will come out of the woodwork.

DPS queues are forever ridiculous :/ It's the nature of the beast when you and everyone else wants to play the pewpew classes by an overwhelming margin. Here's hoping Heavensward will make tank/heals cool again (well, kind of -- I love healing and I also love the almost instaqueue, so it's not exactly advantageous to me since I'm already benefiting from the imbalance <_<) to help smooth things out a little more.

Queued for Titan EX a week or so ago with Nick and they can totally back me up when I say the queue took two hours before we finally just gave up. Two attempts, both almost lasting an hour, no dice. The same thing happened with Ramuh Hard for me not much later, a seventeen minute wait time went over an hour... And I was queue'd as a healer both times.

I believe you! Me and a friend (A healer) waited 5hrs on Ramuh while messing around(Had time to cook, eat, do laundry and other random things lol) before we gave up and started to look for help xP.
