I'd amend this slightly: an FC static can be great as a starter static. My FC has a static that has existed across a few incarnations now, the Rookie Raiders (or "Rooks" for short). The Rooks exist to help folks get started in savage raiding, with experienced raiders in the FC helping to mentor. A given roster of the Rooks usually lasts about a tier—more or less by design—and then they scatter to longer-term statics (generally separate from the FC).
