praetorium vs aurum vale

Can run Aurum Vale with an Offense Mastery Specced Squadron in like 15 minutes if you play healer. Way faster than the vast majority of groups I get there, and obviously faster than Praetorium.

I'm just doing different content to get my tomes so I don't get bored of running the same thing.

So far did 2 runs of stone vigil, 1 run of dzmael darkhold, 1 rabenastre run and 1 orborne monastery run.

I think mob wise its still the same, its the fruits they may have tweaked. I think they respawn faster vs where you had to to allow stacks to build up due to the respawn timer especially that first boss where there isn't a lot of fruits to begin with the. The second boss still packs a wallop for dps and mages with his 1000 whatever it called ton swing move.

I always do two Praetorium and the MSQ daily, which often as not makes it three. It's a nice change of pace at the moment because I recently finished up with The Great Hunt for my rathalos mount. Plus, I enjoy seeing the group in the cut scenes and I'm in no rush because I already have most of the rewards.

I'm in no hurry so hidden for me, but aurum can be done on average of 6 minutes with blues. Prae sucks and this just makes the unskippable cs worth a bit more.

Hahaha. Tanks that pull wall-to-wall and end up dying because the 12-16 mobs they just pulled all have AoEs pointing directly at them. And melee DPS looking on in disbelief because they KNOW the tank is going down and they're next.

Yeah rival wings is fine, i need 80+ wins there anyways so yay...?

Nothing gets me Prätorium or aurum... idm the later but not 20x in row xD

I do not need anything from the moogle tomes but if choice was between Prae and AV, hands down AV.

100 ton swing.

The boss of halatali hard has the 1,000 ton swing.
The boss of Fractual Continuum has the 10,000 ton swing.

May as well just call them the You will die swing.

It's basically the bosses version of "Do you wanna smash?".
