It's very easy to say "Just find a raiding party and go with it," but to actually find one willing to take someone who has never beaten T5 is like finding a needle in a haystack, and starting a raid static is even harder and takes up a lot more time, because you have to actively seek out people who either have not cleared the content you have or will help you clear that content, and very few people are willing to help strangers in an MMO.
I'm on a freaking RP server for twelves' sake!
I'm on the same server as you. What our FC/LS does is we keep track on who needs which wins, for example we currently have a forum thread that lists all members who need wins for each primal. Then one of the people who needs that win (or just someone willing to help) will contact the others who need the same thing done, schedule an event day and time and post it on our forums. Then the rest of open spots (if there are any) are filled with helpers who sign up in the thread. Sometimes a few events are needed for one fight, but for example yesterday we cleared Ramuh ex like this on fourth try. We require members to commit to the events they've signed up for, and come to events prepared, but none of the events are mandatory. We run the newest Coil tier in statics, but for older Coil and other unlocked content everyone is free to organise learning / win events. This has been working very well for us and I recommend similar arrangement for other FCs.
