    Is going solo in Raid Finder viable for Creator (Savage)?

    Assuming I can even find a group to go into and assuming I do all of my research/upgrades/DPS checking in SSS, has anyone had any success learning/doing the savage content solo?

    I just want to explore my options before advertising myself for a static.

    I'm sure hoping it'll be viable enough. All my time off seems to fall right out of anyone trying to establish statics and raid times, so my only option has been pretty much set to Raid Finder. It seems to be either hit or miss with folks. Some swear by it, others swear it. Seems you'll still people attempting to only be carried through there, or just those who aren't yet fit for the fights.

    A9S is pretty easy and not even that different from normal, so I could see it being cleared in RF.

    Anything past that though, good luck.

    A9S is easier than Sophia EX (which can be done in RF) and A10S is about on par with Sophia EX maybe a little harder.

    A11S probably isn't happening, same with A12S. If you clear A9S and A10S, though, you can probably find a static for 11 and 12.

    A11S is a lot of coordination

    Very good to know, thank you.

    Some people give discord links and stuff when you queue into RF. Just because it's random doesn't mean coordination can't happen. If people know their stuff I think RF could be viable. The biggest issue is that people just aren't used to using RF yet so the queue times are really long.

    I think it is really:
    - server dependent
    - job dependent

    It works pretty well on JP servers (I did all my learning and clear of A9S with this). Queue was instant as a tank. Some friends tried as DPS, and it can be very long (45 min). I discussed with friends on NA and EU servers, and it seems it is almost not used, even for A9S. I also did learning of A10S using RF, but cleared with PF. It is too early for A11S since you cannot be i255 at the moment if you were unlucky with Alex loots (i253 max so far without i270 gears).
