    The only real solution is to find a static group, or create one yourself.

    Lie~! Don't ever say it's your first run when it comes to groups like this. And if you screw up, blame it on lag. xD

    BTW, I've seriously never done that, I just know someone who does and found it hilarious. xD

    Watch a couple videos if you can but I think that's a bit silly. The best way to learn is to experience it first hand.

    Coil is causing all kinds of issues by design atm.

    You have 3 possible options to do for coil.

    1) Pugs want specific things only due to certain jobs being able to perform better at known strategies. So if you are not that job you are less desirable to shout groups.
    2) Static based Guilds (Those that run with permanent set groups). IF you join one and are not in the group you will be sitting out alot.
    3) Guilds that are not running static groups (those that are more rotating people to get everyone involved). If you are not on a key job you will still have times you cannot get into the groups due to not having a perfect division of 8.

    The lowman with lockout scenario makes every possible situation bad honestly. Content is just poorly designed. It is 90% the devs fault these issue happen about 10% of the community in my opinion.

    My suggestion to the OP is simple. If you are going the pug route. Simply lie about having experience, because without doing that you will not get into anything over those with experience. The community is utter garbage in XIV atm outside guilds. Just watch as many videos as possible and ask the person running the group what strat they are running.

    ^^ This.

    The lockouts are at the heart of the issue. I'd love to practice more, but I can't because I'm in a static group. If I pass them up, we're screwed for the week and vice versa. They need to get rid of the lockout.

    Create a group yourself. Shouldn't be too hard. Also, try getting your FC or LS help for coil. PuGing is doable, but its difficult to always find a decent group every week if you do it this way.

    From SE's track record:
    -Crystal Tower will be in 2.0, didn't happen
    -Housing will be in 2.0, didn't happen
    -Player housing will be in 2.1, not gonna happen
    -New Content every 4 months, guess what if 2.1 is launching in December its 5 months

    I say Greywizaqrd is just being pessimistic, not lying.

    Lie and say you're experienced. Good chance there will still be someone worse than you and you can probably pull off the lie unless you forget that you're lying and go "What's an ADS?"
