Greetings and apologies for the out-of-left-field question, considering how long this game has been in-service.

I personally have not partaken in Raid content since Coil of Bahamut all the way back in A Realm Reborn content era, and even that was quite limited, but it was always within the confines of the Free Company i was part of at the time and a Raiding Linkshell.

And i haven't touched 8-man Raid content since; but with Eden's release today and content still being fresh and new- everyone being on the same page- and me being in a much smaller, easy-going FC these days; i thought about the possibility of where i stood in my ability to partake in Eden "Normal"

Is Normal 8-man Raid content something that is acceptable to do within PuG'ing? I do not have any experiences of my own to draw from except from my former years of playing previous MMORPG Raid-content; paint me a word picture if possible.

Is PuG'ing 8-man Raid's chaotic? is it something to be desired?

Thank you in advance.
