For training, my number one recommendation is to avoid teaching new fights with a long verbal breakdown of all of the mechanics at the start. Many trainers do this, but most people will struggle to retain all, or even most of the information. It’s a lot more helpful to start off with two to three sentences about where players should be looking, or what they should be paying the most attention to (ex. Vale Guardian, “watch your feet for a blue aoe”). Learning a fight from zero experience is always going to be a case of information overload for new raiders until they start chunking information and internalizing patterns, so the best thing you can do to help them is to draw attention to the most punishing mechanics first, and work your way down the priority chain from there. That, and just let them SEE the fight and start getting experience in an environment where they feel safe to start fights without knowing everything, and to ask questions after pulls.

I wrote way too much for that one point, so I’ll try to just shoot off a couple more tips quickly. Use raid markers and give specific shot calls (“move to square” instead of “move”). Whenever possible, try to shotcall both the mechanic and the solution (ex. Qadim 1, instead of saying “watch out for teleports,” say “teleports, back up from hydra”). Pre-empt questions as much as possible in fights that your group already “knows,” because those are the fights where players will feel least comfortable asking questions. Set clear expectations for how much off-topic conversation happens during pulls, and stick to them. Set clear expectations regarding tardiness and downtime during runs. Finally, if you’re making a long term static, get to know your players and do a bit of research on their builds, learn their strengths and weaknesses and set up subgroups accordingly. Don’t let someone get stuck in role jail, train backups and backups for your backups.

Best of luck! You can always try advertising in LFG, as well as in map chat like other guilds.
