For those interested:

Got a couple of trials against Raven (hard)

my group is still streamlining it's strategy, and it looks like i'll be switching to whm in the interim while we work our some of our difficulties with the fight itself. the hard part of brd for this fight is positioning. and that can be learned on whm. skill rotation is very easy, as you're always ~13 yalms away you can pretty much combo freely with TP being your limiting factor.

However I've been ranging between 12k-22k damage in about 14 minutes. focusing purely on Nael and occasionally helping with meteors. (have not made it to 10meteor phase). this is roughly 70% of the damage our DRG. roughly 75-80% of the mnk. As a side note, I feel our MNK is not hitting his proper rotation so that may not be a good approximation of where BRDs damage should be on this fight.
