Let's make major wrong behavior list which noob player should not do in group dungeon.

1, Don't steal taunt from real tank :s. If you're not tank, then don't equip any of taunt skill.
Or, if you're tank role. Must use taunt skill, and don't be fake tank build.
If you don't have tank building knowledge yet, then don't queue as tank.

2, Don't stand in front of tank.

3, Don't stand back of the healer. (you can't receive any of direct healing.)

4, Don't equip "ring of pale order".

5, Don't ignore non DLC Vet hard mode scroll or hard mode mech.
(If you ignore this, then someone will leave. Or you'll be kicked.)

6, Don't push hard mode switch of Vet DLC dungeon, if you don't ready for it enough.

7, Eat something buff food at the starting point.

8, Don't keep standing damage AoE

9. If you're Damage Dealer(DD, DPS), don't use restoration staff and shield.

10. Healer must have healing skill for your team mate. Don't be fake healer.

Maybe, there're so many other bad behavior of noob...
If you're experienced player, please post here. ;)

    I think you’ve got most of it covered.

    Healers need to use orb or shard (templar) and aim it at their tank.

    Say you’re new to the dungeon at the beginning and people will usually explain mechanics.

    DON’T PULL BEFORE THE TANK. This is the most frustrating thing ever. Even in trash, you’re messing up the pull and making stacking harder. Pull before me and I’m instantly in a bad mood. Some tanks might just stand there and see if you’ll die…

    It’s expected that the healer wears SPC and the tank supplies penetration (major/minor breach at minimum).

    I've been playing MMOs for decades and have done a lot of end game content in multiple games and I never read web pages or watched videos on how to play. The best way to learn these is by doing and feedback and advice from others.

    Id say the basic is dont stand in front of the tank, dont pull, and dont stand in the giant red aoes. Dont need a master class in mmos to know that much. Its common sense. As a tank i will say while it is incredibly annoying some new dps dont know what a taunt skill is, especially if they sword and board because they think that is a fine option for dps as a total newbie and the first skill is puncture. If they are obviously new i give em a pass.

    If you're healer, keep searching allay who need healing in specific situation.
    Must keep watching every field, don't be narrow sight.

    Basically, end-game quality tank doesn't need healing in most of case.
    But in some specific mech of Vet dungeon, tank need direct healing even toughest tank.
    (EX Breath heavy attack of last boss in Earthen Root.)

    I mean i suppose you could get away with 3 heavy sorcs and a tank but they would have to be reaal organized. Yeah ideally you want a real good healer. Basically breath is block and pray.

    Don't use any kind of random group finder for dungeons unless you know most, preferably all, your group before hand.

    Don't jump into a veteran dungeon, especially vet DLC, and expect to be carried.

    Don't jump into a veteran dungeon, especially vet DLC, and expect to be able to instantly understand all mechanics.

    Don't jump into a veteran dungeon, especially vet DLC, and get all upset when someone won't give you the monster helmet in the weight you want.

    Don't expect us to believe your PVP Werewolf is a PVE tank. Its not. Don't lie about solo tanking vMOL with it.

    Don't think you're fooling anyone that you are a real tank while sporting 2 daggers. And since you are obviously fake tanking, DON'T DIE. We're cool with a fake tank helping out the group as long as we don't have to keep rezzing you.

    Second best piece of advice:
    As @GlassHalfFull said, at least look at a walkthrough on mechanics for DLC dungeons before jumping in. You're not going to understand something like vet Graven Deep by playing through cold. And on something like Falkreath, not knowing the mechanics will lead to to a group wipe by running out of pillars

    The #1 best piece of advice:
    If you find that don't know what you are doing, or are confused, or you keep dying from one mechanic, or you are just stuck, please, PLEASE ask for help. We all see you dying. We're just waiting for you to ask for help because we have all been accused of being toxic for daring to ask if someone in your position knows the mechanics.

    I agree with you. ESO very needs pre-studying process.

    But... 

    Well, good designed AAA game doesn't need youtube tutorial.
    Because the good game already has good game flow design, so people easily can understand
    what hell happen on the field.

    However, ZOS can't design the game actually "good".
    So, we'll meet lots of noob filter, especially in dungeon.

And in normal dungeons, almost no one ever pays attention to the mechanics. I've just given up even for the ones where I do remember.

    Unless you are doing mechanics or getting out of red, STAY STACKED ON BOSS, even on a ranged build. Stacking minimizes some mechs, helps control adds, and makes it easier for the healer to keep you alive.

    Also if something is chasing you, bring it to the tank so they can pull it off you easier, don't run all over with it.

    I disagree with this. - I have olo for both Vampires and Pale's - you do what you want (as long as you know what your doing). Healer is an extra dps? Can definitely work with that too.

    It is frowned upon in group content, especially in raids (yes, I know this is a dungeons thread). While you can totally run the tank + 3 DDs format, when you have a healer, they like to heal. :)

    in a group of 4, the pale order will still be providing some self healing, though it still blocks heals from allies (-4% per ally, so -12% in group of 4 since it excludes yourself

    in a group of 12, the pale order is doing functionally nothing except blocking heals from allies (its kind of a joke in our trials, when we are about to start our run the lead asks if we are ready and someone sometimes chimes up "yeah i got my pale order ring im good to go" lol, other times when someone does die its joked that they were wearing pale order lol)

    I can tell you right now i read the mechs for vet scalecaller about 50x before i tried it my first time. I still wasnt prepared. That said it was worth doing it gave me an idea atleast. I was lucky enough to end up with 3 very lovely vet players who helped me through, encouraged me, and kept picking my dumb butt up off the ground over and over. They gave me all their drops and congratulated me on my first clear. They actually threw flower petals on my toon at the end.

    A gentle reminder to not paint all of us vet players with the same brush, ive walked many a new player through their first vet since.

    As a DD, don´t que as anything, but a DD

    Don´t speedrun. Don´t skip.
    If you see a high cp support role. Don´t assume they know everything, as it could be a new character (Tank, Healer).
    A WW isn´t a tank. Now you know.
    Skip the Paleorder ring - it´s a solo item.
    Everythin can be leveled in Overland. Why are you using a Resto staff or taunt as a dd - slot something else.

    Outside Dungeons:

    If you see a low level leveling. Don´t blast everything in the area just because you can, and want to look cool. You aint cool. Leave the new player´s alone and let them level.

    Hard disagree with not using a resto staff or shield as a DD.

    If I'm pulling my weight as a DPS, I can wear what I want. Use the marking system to ID the tank, or give them crown (which is best practice) if you are worried about role confusion. Healer can be marked with Icon as well.

    You don't get to kick me because my axe and shield DD build doesn't fit some weird criteria you have.

    I fail to understand why a dd need a resto staff on bb or fb unless a dd took the healer spot. With a healer on the healer spot ? I just need to learn I guess. Can´t know everything.

    So ofc Im sorry that it is received in the wrong way.
