your party isn't holding you back, in your best p8sp2 clear you didn't use verraise at all and your rdps contribution given from embolden is only ~200 less than in a rank 1 log - its not the best, but its still serviceable to hit orange at least

your issues are:
a) barely 95% gcd uptime, this is the main contributor
b) another big contributor is the loss of a manafication usage as you're not rushing it (using it on cooldown, including in downtime). aligning it with raid buffs sounds like a good idea on paper, but its causing you to lose a melee combo over the course of the fight, which is a much bigger loss than you'll gain by having perfect buff windows
c) perfect buff windows leads me into the next point - your buff windows should contain a full combo and a set of finishers (verflare/holy+scorch+resolution) if you're aligning manafication with embolden. you didn't achieve this once, with the closest attempt being your 4:50 window (natural alignment 2) where you used embolden before the start of your first combo and managed to fit a verholy and a verflare in it
d) lazy drift of contre sixte causing a lost usage in the fight (mainly caused by not getting it on cd before high concept 1)
e) same as above with corps-a-corps and engagement but this is a bit more understandable - you'd have to change your opener to be able to get them off before high concept 1 (i'd advocate for double weaving pot with fleche or contre sixte in your opener or simply moving the potion to 2:40 after high concept 1 to accommodate this)

feel free to look up my character if you feel like you need to verify the credibility of my advice, and i'm happy to answer followup questions should you have them

glhf!
In p6s out of his 12 clears, only 5 of them were clean. The other 7 clears he had 6 clears with damage downs and of those 6, 4 of them had one or more deaths. The one clear of those 7 he didn't have a damage down he had two deaths.

And of course when he gets called out on it, he posts a comment like the below quote.

Personally, I don't have a problem with people messing up and I hate using meters/logs in such a manner, but I love the irony of people like FireMage who advocate for meters so they can "kick out the bads" cuz he thinks he's a "high end" player and its never his fault when things go wrong, but the logs shows how inconsistent he is and by his own standards people would be kicking him out lol.
