Rabanastre was really fun. Managed to clear it with some FC friends. We wiped once on the first boss, about half a dozen times on the second and then once more at the end. The references were lost on me but it was a fun raid ^^

I cleared it but no once a guide comes out it will be far easier I'm not a great blind runner ha
Finally cleared it, went in with a Party Finder group instead of a DF PUG.
Party Finder folks are in for the long haul and seem more willing to learn, to retry after a wipe and honestly discuss what went wrong, to wait if someone has to take a break (someone had to feed a hungry kid in my group) and honestly the quality of player in a PF group is just going to be a bit higher. We cleared it with 22 since two of our DPS had to leave. We still met all the necessary DPS checks even with only 13 DPS, because the 13 we had were good players.
I cleared it, but it's not a fun raid at all. I don't like the new trend of obscuring a mechanic's tells in order to add difficulty. The second boss has two one-shot attacks with no line aoe markers that require you to pick up relatively subtle indicators, and with all the chaos of the 24 man instance, they are very easy to miss. I especially hated the last boss's controller mixup. That mechanic was uniformly hated in may 2 and 3d action games, which is why it has fallen out of favor as a mechanic in them. After an hour of doing that raid, to be hit with that was more of an insult than anything.
Interestingly, this raid likes to insult you, too. If you wipe you get after-the battle flavor text, and all the last boss does is spam his annoying lines. I feel like SE listened to all the people who said they loved royal menagerie and thought we'd like a harder, more intricate 24 man. I personally don't, and I feel that like royal menagerie, people will leave if it shows up in alliance roulette.
all some people want is faceroll auto attack or 1, 2, 3 bosses..... its sad really. to any1 enjoys this tank n spank type content i ask simply why? are you really THAT lazy? or do you just have to watch your netflix while playing 14 while juggling your 4 kids ages 2-9
The 24 man raid was fun , did it with a FC party and 2 random groups. We cleared it with 20 min remaining.
But there was 1 complain I have is : Shitty people , the content is just out for 1 hour. If you start whining that people wipe on new content , delete the game and never come back with your toxic behavior.
Cleared it on first attempt in random df needed 2 attempts at 2nd and 3rd boss but 1 shot first and last
