    At i111 with the Diamond Grimore, I was nowhere near that. I see not many groups in this thread are running SMN for raid, but for those who do, any pointers? I had to swap from a 116 WHM that's been my main for over nine months to SMN because of raid derpery, so try not to be TOO harsh on me, but I only did 340 on this week's clear, with me dying at like 1% (tether partner ran over the other group and got two stacks right before Nerve Cloud QQ).

    I ended the fight with a sizeable portion of mana (over 2k?), so I'm thinking I might have hedged on my Shadow Flares too much trying to save MP. Even then, no way in heck is that a ~90 DPS difference. We cleared with a little under 45 seconds to enrage, so my group assures me that I've got time to get better, but I don't like feeling carried.

    So, any suggestions? Thanks in advance.


    Edit with some additional points:

    -we don't usually run a BRD for raid, though we did this week because our MT was missing and people swapped around (so usually no Foe's, no Ballad)
    -our BLM MT'd this week and he is normally on the non-magic-resisting add so my numbers are actually usually worse lmao
    -I didn't have to Egi-swap because I was on the cube, and yes Garuda was in range of boss during final phase, so that shouldn't be the reason why my numbers were bad
