So I realised that I have loads of uncompleted raid quests for both A Realm Reborn and Heavensward (I haven't got Stormblood or Shadowbringers yet). I'm primarily referring to all Bahamut coils (aside from the first) and all Alexander raids.
I was initially content with waiting to do these when it was convenient to me... That was until during a main story quest mission on one of the Heavensward patches I met Alisaie. Now I was rather surprised to actually see her for once as to my knowledge she has been largely absent from the game, but she implied that I should have been helping her with Bahamut coils, etc.... So I felt like I'd therefore missed the correct point in the story to have completed those raids. Now completing these raids would be non-canonical as the rest of the story will have progressed already.
I've tried to do a few but I found myself in a queue for far too long and eventually gave up as I needed to go to bed. At the same time, I don't want to complete the story in the wrong order.
So my question is this: when is the best time to do raids in the story? As soon as they become available? At any time? Does it matter much?
The fact that I don't know the maps at all when most people storm through these dungeons and I tend to be left behind is besides the point...
