1.) Open up Party Finder, set the ilvl to 240 (or higher if you want), and say "Clear Party -- 2 Strike Rule. Come with full knowledge of the fight." What this means, as you've probably guessed, is that if anyone does 2 major goofs then they're kicked and you have to be ruthless.

2.) Get a Discord server. Tell EVERYONE to go in there, even if they "don't have a mic".

3.) If you feel confident in your knowledge of the fight then you can call out mechanics. If not, see if someone else will. Calling out mechanics makes this fight even easier than it already is as now you don't even need to pay attention to soft/hard tilts, which side, etc etc you can just listen to the caller.

4.) Win!

An alternative strat is to just buy a run. If you feel like you're already past clear level but just can't find luck with parties, it's potentially worth it to just buy your clear and start joining farm parties. I personally recommend the above strat instead as I've never had to buy a run with it, but if you've got gil burning holes in your pockets then I don't entirely see the harm in it.
