DT Savage Raids advice (lemmy.world)

As someone who never played during an expansion launch, how hard are the latest Savage raids? I’ve been afraid to try them, I don’t have an active FC so I’d be queuing and I don’t want to be a burden. I can run the normal raids and not die or even get hit by the mechanics the whole run, but not sure how big of a jump up in difficulty they are mechanics wise.

@pontiffkitchen0 I'd recommend you to do the first few fights guided - that will help you understand some more mechanics when you eventually try a fight without a guide.

Hector provides decent guides, but usually super early before better strategies have been concieved - so watch out if a party in PF calls for something else; though if you read the descriptions, it's fairly obvious. And if anything is unclear, we're happy to help or figure it out together.

That’s probably what I’ll do, atleast watch and study the first one before hand and see what I’m getting myself into. And I appreciate the call out, I’ll keep that in mind that I should be open to following what someone in the party says to do instead of blindly following possibly outdated strats from early videos. I really do appreciate this community, and the FF14 community as a whole. It’s not universal, but overall it’s the most welcoming and friendly gaming community I’ve ever experienced.
