  I don't expect the majority of even high level players to have any fucking clue as to what they're doing.
  
  People just don't care enough to learn how things work. It wouldn't matter even if they did because the best rewards are accessible to the lowest common denominator.

  
  Soooo much this. It's astounding to see that 80 percent of people twice or more than my level are doing half my potential damage.
  
  As for the whole soloing contents issue, we need to consider two things. A new player cannot recreate what happened with Oberynn. A new character, yes, but not new player. The other thing is money back up.

  I burned 360K and 12 blue stones trying to get one wand to S3 two days ago.
  It went to S0.
  
  Yeah I can make 360K back if I do something like spam a bunch of elite SMs using crystals, but that's also a case of info and resources used to get resources.

  What is this bullshit... I wear mostly black, and that makes me a trap? :

  .-.; Is anyone even that generous to give such gears for newbies below 1k lol and I'm lost now since you guys started comparing and showing stats...
  I find it hard to believe that it's "easy" for a newly created character to just spam firebolt in hm at around like what 300...so far the stats you just posted isn't that of a newly created character. And the gears I'm pretty sure you already had the resources for the +cc savage fire wand and/or you can farm for them easier than those who are below 1k.
  
  I'm just saying on the realistic point of view of someone who just started 4 weeks ago (so not everyone made it to that free Devcat bag with 500 ap and training potions) who just touched her character for 2 weeks (out of town) who had nothing, not even spent on cash shop, no pets (except for the free horse, eagle, and pegasus) who just finished g1, g2, and sagas.
  And even if I'm in the most populated server .-. I haven't seen a single party who're willing to spam MA with a newbie what more bring them to Avon for free. I know that there are helpful stronger players who likes helping newbies, but most of the time they don't fully explain or give enough details on what to do in mabi like farming exploration levels for example, I asked a handful of players on which method would be the most efficient way to gain levels...majority answered the Statues from the gachapons (but not everyone have the money to spend irl), then they suggested doing exploration quests (but not a single one suggested sketching the lich) while the rest just mentioned rafting. Most of the time everyone will just suggest mabi wiki ("google mabi wiki" as they say). I'm not against using the wiki but even the wiki itself has some limitations too :fail3:
  
  I appreciate the tip on how to farm exploration levels, I'll try it from now on but yea..this isn't a show off thread and I may not fully understand the full logistics of damage calculations yet, please try to see it on my point of view :bow:

  
  
  I agreed. :o Even on Tarlach, I've seen stronger people picking on the newbies. Some of them tend to help newbies out but they weren't very detailed or too fast forwarded ( left the newbies were totally confused.)
