That's why we have infinite combat resurrections. You died? Rise up and keep going, if the other 3/7 know what they are doing you will complete everything MSQ related with no problem.

There's one thing to consider. For some reason I see you consider yourself "less competent than the others doing the exact same content, with less struggle/better results..." This people you are comparing yourself were exaclty like you the first time they reached that content, and if they look "competent" is because they already know it. This line reached me, because yesterday, after some years, I decided to do EXTREME trials again (last time was in Stormblood) and MAN what a hard time I had in the second extreme in some specific phase. Then after some wipes (and even an out of nowhere clear lol) I felt total shit and told to the party "I'm so sorry I suck at this mechanic, it just melts my brain". My surprise when at least other 4 people, that I thought they were such PRO players, started saying "omg me too, I just follow player A" and player A "what, I was just following player B" and player B was there like "I dunno what I'm doing lol". Meaning that I was thinking so low about myself but we all were struggling as.F. Then we started talking about mechanics where we suck and I was so surprise how other players can struggle at stuff I find easy, but they are gods at mechanics I just cannot.

Don't worry, you won't find this "wall you cannot pass" on the MSQ. And if you die, rise and repeat, and ask/tell your teammates.
