Yeah, I guess it doesn't help that some of the good PvMers make it sound like it's all easy and if you don't get it done, you're stupid. That's not the case, though. Those people have been PvMing for a very long time and obviously started off like everyone else that's new, bad. However, in order to reach their level, you have to stay motivated and actually try.
I had a similiar mindset way back and it's the reason why I neglected Araxxor for so long.
"OMG people kill Araxxor with ease and I'm dying 24/7?! I can't even do Araxxor! I suck at pray switching it" - little did I know it was just because I wasn't used to that level of combat. Surprisingly, you realise you adapt and actually find it easier than you thought..
Recently though I took a new approach and have noticed that the more kills I do, the better I get. I accept failures now and try not to rage when something goes wrong.
I find myself watching a ton of twitch streams where good pvmers are doing the boss I'm trying to learn. It's helped me immensely I'd say.
Unfortunately getting good people to share their beginning days seems unlikely. It's all about who deals the most DPS and so on. They all want to sound amazing at what they do - sharing bad experiences will just make them look bad (in their eyes) and they can't have that! Because that'd actually show they possess nothing special, just the ability to learn and stay motivated long enough to reach that level of "prowess".
