3:55 CPAP Clear by Juniper on NAW (SB POV)

Yeah that's why I mentioned my perspective is skewed (in terms on not minding to carry people).

But regarding my experience in pug the past month or so, I'd probably clarify a bit. Pug isn't really an issue especially nowadays because there's usually not just me being carried on the epic alt and I actually join in through party finder most of the time. As long as people claim they can do so-and-so roles I notice most parties will just let them in (cpap,cmoc,cdev) regardless of their prestige (and I have a habit of checking everyone's prestige/profile each raid while waiting for people).

Heck at some times when all roles are filled by the big bois, it's fine if that alt doesn't do anything (Note: I have 10 characters I started doing weekly raids ever since trader's ribbon released and I run throughout the whole week bit by bit).

So in terms of my recommendation, I would highly advise against a new player starting from scratch but instead join a pug party that's been set up by other higher prestige/stronger players because typically their situation is same as mine (they have a few friends helping them out). And again, this is throughout the whole week. But yeah, what I'm saying is my experience at NAW and I'd like to put a disclaimer again that I do not know what's the case on your server.

Many people in my server don't mind helping out. I still vaguely remember that one time some guy did a world chat that he still hadn't gotten his weapon/clear on cpap and was losing hope and the server banded together and formed a party to help him :').
