Already got it (on the first run).
Aside than that, I didn't feel as if Garuda EM had too much HP.

Why do I even bother...sigh.
This thread is not about a Twintania group face rolling Garuda, this is about pugs and DF, which part of the red text in the OP did you miss? Once more you are coming here presenting a case that is absolutely irrelevant to this thread.
Edit: Thanks for the headache and the loss of 20 IQ points. We keep this up and I will be legally /b/ tard. Next time, could you please read the OP, understand what we are talking about before you start spawning irrelevant posts to the thread?
This is what I see here:
OP: Garuda EM has too much HP for duty finder groups. It takes over 10 minutes to kill her with duty finder players. This is a lot of time if you want to farm Garuda with duty finder especially since not all runs are successful.
Others: Get a skilled team with iLvL 75 - full iLvL 90 and you can steamroll Garuda EM in under 5 minutes.
Others are basically implying that everyone should get a geared and skilled group together and Garuda will die like a fly. Not everyone can get 8 awesome players together with the snap of a finger. While forming a very competent team to take down content is always an option, not everyone can do that easily and therefore that does not solve the problem of Garuda taking a long time to farm with duty finder groups.
This is an issue/non issue based on your view but that's what I have basically saw here.
Easy? Took me 41 tries in the DF to beat her.
Easy for some hard for others.
Using DF is brutal on all EX Primal Fights ( unless you get a lucky group that knows the fight). It is recommended to make a pre-made group if you can to do those fights. Because no matter how awesome you are at the fight, if you get 1 or 2 people that don't know the fight etc. the you are going to have a bumpy ride using DF. Yes after 41 hard working tries I finally did it!
Ugh, this might be my problem. I keep using DF, my iLvl is 80 avg. I'm at 50+ tries on DF. Parties are always either partial when I show up, or they abandon because it's too hard, and they complain I'm not doing enough, despite eating food and intelligence potions. As SMN. We get under 50%, people leave. I can't even find a party outside of DF :(. And then I get French players complaining about how everyone else are stupid noobs. It sucks, I just want to be done with her...
Are you an archaeologist?
I've never felt like any of the primals had too much health, until 2.3.
Ramuh feels like a long slog of a fight, even on story mode. Haven't been able to try extreme but I can't imagine that one dies much quicker.
Merry Christmas 2013!
lol got a good laugh out of this.
Garuda X dies so fast now in Duty Finder, leave her alone!
Garuda EX too much HP?
Well even though this thread is necro'd, this JP grp did it back then in i90, 2mins 59s kill

Meh, I think they should make her HP bigger and make her hit harder… this fight hardly lives up to the Extreme Mode status. Garuda HM in 1.0 was harder than this.
I'm actually against this simply for the fact it would create the same issue OP is bringing up about Garuda. Saying we want to lower the HP on Garuda, but then boost Ifrit's HP is asking to have the problem reversed. We'd want the fight to be about as short as Ifrit EX.
