If you have limited playtime I would say a static. If people are punctual you can just log on and jump in the raids without wasting time. Having to find and form PFs and possibly alter strats with constantly changing parties could eat up your playtime and limit your runs. But tbh finding people and changing positions never really takes that much longer anyway.
definitely find a static that fits your hours. when you have limited time to play, there's nothing worse than going into PF and having your time wasted by randoms/leavers. PF is good for people who play at odd hours but still have a reasonable amount of time. If you have weekends open, there are a lot of weekend warrior statics that you can join.
My worries always come from what I feel is my skill level. Just Don't think I'm good enough at normal content to jump in, plus I still have some difficulty seeing all the info on my screen that I need. Despite that, I just got myself into my FC's static, told them my worries and we're gonna jump in and give it a shot this coming tier! Very excited
Between what Fanazador said about persistance and what you said about skill you have what you need to get better. First step is always identifying the problem. When it comes to skill use what SE has given you, you have Stone Sky Sea. Hold yourself accountable to the time limit on the dummy, don't look at your progress as a failure but as a benchmark. Always go through the motions when practicing, never skip actions when you mess up rotations. Practice hitting the right buttons in sequence and then gradually get faster. Same with seeing whats going on in a fight. Never skip observing mechanics to react quickly, practice doing it the right way even if you react too slow, you'll get faster through repetition. Lastly your worries are universal. Everyone has anxiety when trying new things. The people who succeed simply don't let worry prevent them from acting. Sometimes knowing that helps people from seeing established raiders as "gods" or "advantaged" when they just have experience already jumping into new things. Like Fanazador said if you want it you'll do it, don't be afraid just keep inching in.
The thing that got me the last two tiers was the burnout. I'm pretty casual when it comes to raiding. My group gets burned out on the first three fights while we are working on the last one. It would be great if Yoshi-P decided to lift the reclear requirement on the odd number patches. Being able to do the raid at a reasonable pace for me helps with the anxiety.
Don't you guys only need to reclear it 1-2 times if you have a full static? after that you can just skip the fight to the next one. I'm still fairly new but I can see how it's tiring if the group is struggling on older one instead of progging the new one.
@@fanazador On the newest savage tier, each fight is locked behind its predecessor regardless of whether the previous fight was cleared before. So even if I have all four savage fights unlocked, I cannot immediately queue into the fourth fight on a new week. Instead, I have to clear all the fights in order up to the final fight.
@@awerges2205 Oh really? huh I didn't know that, when I started P9S we can look for Taxi to the next fight. Yeah I can see how that would burn you out.
yall recommend PF or finding static that only does weekends? I have limited play hours.

@@rogue9856 enjoy! It will feel overwhelming at first but the more you run the more natural it'll feel.
