Has any non-jp party defeated garuda post blmburn nerf?

[JackDaniels]

My only gripe is that if there was no latency, then people with intermediate skills may have a chance at this if there was no lag. By that I mean people who have done their research/ are well educated on the fight and have fought other primals prior to. As the post above clearly indicates, only well organized hardcore players who run the instance dozens of times using a voice chat client have a chance. Unless you play alllllll the fudging time, it's reallllly hard to come by a functional party (unless you are lucky and have lots of friends in good endgame shells). I spent a week getting a static party together for this, between people not showing up and the lag (you have to admit, survival post aerial blast is pretty much a roll of the dice), it's pretty much a nightmare. I think the biggest salt in the wound is gear degradation though. Going from 100% on all equipment to 20% in 3 hours isn't a good feeling (especially when you made the mistake of having a separate character for crafting).
