the most difficult part of the first couple scenarios is usually the fact that the players aren't familiar with the rules and mechanics of the game, nor with their characters and their cards. Thus you don't know what strategies work.Mix that in with players assuming that playstyle and strategies that work in other RPGs or dungeon crawlers (like tanking) will work with the starting characters of Gloomhaven, and there tends to be struggling.
eliminating the core mechanics of the game aren't going to make very good training wheels because you'll never learn the proper rules, mechanics, and strategies.
