How do I find a static raid group?

[Ophie-Mio]

For a lot of people T5 is super old news to the point where they try to join just for the easy soldiery. They can usually carry anyone through it. The fact that you're willing to learn it is great.

The thing about statics is that your FC members are either already in one or not interested in helping you make one for yourself. Being a leader of one is awful. If you want a static, you need to make one yourself or advertise yourself and show that you are serious.

Most raid groups are at T10+ right now..which means for you that you need to catch up. You need to get a T5 clear group advertised as "T5 Clear - Know up to twisters" to catch the people who know what they are doing and to show the more experienced people that you know what you're doing. From there, just go into the second coil and hit it hard. Farm for your needed gear and get on T9.

The OP can not show people, if the OP can not even get a chance to demonstrate. This is such a catch-22. People not being inclusive, not even offering substitute fill-in spots to try-out, how is OP going to get started.

There are ALWAYS static groups looking for pug members for the third coil. Members being missing and the like. My group is constantly looking for another bard and our smn has work scheduling issues. We need pugs for those spots.
Every person who has been in a spot for us we have evaluated them. Anyone who doesn't meet our DPS requirements and ability to learn mechanics don't get to come back. This isn't cruel, this is a fact.
Plenty of statics are at the point now where no one can be carried in third coil. It requires EVERYONE to pull their best numbers to make the DPS checks.

And has Bar Baron said, the thing about third coil statics (which are really the only statics right now) is that it's serious play with serious players. Even if they hold casual schedules, they are serious about clearing it.

any helpful raiders going to give the OP a chance to try?

It isn't like Ai Hana says in that it's about being helpful. You need to learn this stuff for yourself. You need to do PF groups. You need to clear T5 and second coil with a mastery of the mechanics. You need to be ready for what T10 can bring to your plate. Statics will know if you're carried that's for sure.

If you're serious about finding a static, you need to get to the point where most statics are at. Anything in a DF will not be a starting point. Hit it hard, catch up, and put yourself out there.
