I don't know about emarr but I'm a non-raider in Ring of Valor on Bristlebane and I recommend joining a large guild for both the grouping opportunities and random freebies in the form of rotting gear or task adds people in the guild hang out. RoV also has a semi-permanent hunter raid going on that people can just AFK in while folks work on hunter to get everyone their hunter achievements.
Beyond that, you learn a lot from both the guild spam and the chat in the specific channels.
