Raids tough?

[Swampking]

Hi y’all, this will be my last post I promise. I’m finally enjoying this game as a warrior tank and now I’m truly worried. Before the msq quest I though to try coil of bahamut and crystals tower raid quest but I’m scared to raid thanks to wow.☹️ So my plan is do msq and beast quest but I must know are coils of bahamut and crystal tower raid hard. I’m only doing it for quest and lore so please don’t spoil the raid. But if it too hard you can tell me.

They are not hard.
I'd recommend starting with Crystal Tower.
If, after that, you're still nervous, just undersize the Coils alone or with a few friends just to clear the quests and see the story for the raid tier.

Ok I’m excited to see what happens!

coils is hard. and its not really easy to find a group for it. most do it with a few max lvl player.

If you've tanked dungeons and trials, you can tank alliance raids.
They're basically 3 8-man dungeon runs stacked on top of each other.

So I should wait with the extreme trails till I’m lvl 80 but the crystal tower raid I will be ok?

Extreme trials are always added at the level cap for each expac.
If you wanna do EX trials from, say, Heavensward, you don't need to wait for 80.

They can be a bit of a difficulty bump the first time you try EX trials, but generally the first EX of each expansion is designed to be more of an introductory one for people to dip their toes into. I'd recommend starting there.

Hey, also WoW tank refugee here. Tanks are easy, especially if you find a group of people do some MINE or savages. But even pugs people seem to stay around, if anything to avoid the penalty, so don't be afraid. I am one of those people that has to do the fight 3-4 times to get the mechanics right and people seemed okay with that, so my advice is: Just go for it and see how it goes!

Alliance Raids (which involve 24 people such as Crystal Tower) are casual content, which means they are easy. People may die a lot but there are so many healers that they will just be resurrected and you will clear it.

Coils of Bahamut are very hard. You may not manage to queue for these directly, but what you can do is recruit in party finder for a level 80 to help you through them using the Undersized Party setting, which allows them to kill all of the bosses for you really quickly. The point of that is so you can see the story.

Starting with expansions, the 8 player raids have a normal version (for story) and a challenging version (savage) which is optional. The savage version is very challenging, but unless they are the latest raids they may be easier because of the way they sync unless you use the minimum IL setting.

You don't queue for savage directly because there are no roulettes that it's part of, so you need to find 7 friends or recruit for them in party finder.
