Return of Reckoning

Like 99% of t1 players are pugging and/or have just started their first char. Its a bit much to ask of them to form perfect premades when its already hard for them to even navigate to the nearest flight master and dont even know what rvr is. Is my suggestion catering towards solo pugs? Absolutely. And I believe this is alright for tier 1 purposes.

But they will just hit the same problems when they leave t1. If t1 is as with the changes you suggest to learn the game and its abilities isnt it also to learn that the game is group based. I mean whats the point of giving guard at lvl1 if not to encourage people not to solo.

No, not really. The idea of giving out guard earlier is not primarily to encourage grp play (it is a side effect of it though). Its simply meant to give tanks in pug warbands and pug sc a useful thing to do and introducing it from early on will hopefully result in more ppl actually making use of it and learn how to flow with the guard swaps fromnthe beginning. Tier 1 is a chaotic pug fest and thats good how it is imo. Its a sandbox for new players and veterans to learn new classes. My suggestion mainly focuses on making it more fun, by giving out the most iconic class abilities from the start.
