Newbie Guide:
It requires serious preparation to be an effective part of a group. Experience is the best teacher, but I can tell you some of the basics.
First, for now it matters little whether you hunt with Fighters or with other Mystics. The most important thing right now is that you find people you trust and work well with.
Second, when you look at your party in the compass, or radar, on the top right of the screen, notice that your party members will be marked with green dots. Also, at the left side of your screen, you may double-click the Party window to move towards a nearby member. By double-clicking one of your party members, you will automatically follow the one you have chosen.
A monster usually concentrates its attacks on the person who has injured it the most. Therefore, if you are using powerful magic in a group of Fighters, the target may charge you. That is not what you wish to happen. So, use attack magic to finish the target, after the Fighters have weakened it.
Finally, monsters may also turn on those who are helping their attackers. Be just as careful when using Heal, Might or Shield as you are when you cast attack magic.
