Allissa im sorry but i didnt read your whole post :P (it was really long)
But i agree with what i read,
I think that its not lvl but maybe experience.
If you have a tank who does NOT know how to tank... bye bye mages xD
same with pullers and clerics. if they dont know what there doing then they wont do what they should hense them doing nothing.

just as an example of how lvl doesnt matter,
I was in GH KQ and we had hardly any time left before the last giant Graverobber and were about 1/4 away from the exit when we get the key,
a lvl 31 (i think it was that) runs back the way we came the LONG way
and loooonnng story short we run out of time right when he makes it to the gate costing us the KQ.
He was a noob, i mean the whole time he kept saying he was all that and was horrible at tanking (not using skill while fighting) but he was high lvl,
and low lvled people were much more of a help.
(m turning into a hypocrit this is pretty long)
Soo i think it all matters on if you know what to do.
