My wife and I are in the same boat.
Ask FC/LS no one wants to do it.

DF seems to fail only got past the heart 2 times in about 15 parties.
Our Gear sets are all Darklight or better. And well we are leveling alt jobs there is a point when if we can't finish content we will need to move on to another game.

Also don't have time to build a party over 3-4 hour just to have it fail because really your hitting the lotto as much with prebuilt as you are with DF.
