Please Add a Totem Trade-in for Varis yae Galvus Card

This fight needs a trade-in for the TT card.

Unlike the other EX fights that have mounts, weapons, and crafting materials worth gil to continually gain support in PF, this fight has glamours that can be gotten in very few clears and nothing else.

The general consensus is that this card has a much worse drop rate than other EXs which doesn't mesh with glamour rewards that take very few clears to achieve, for those who even want to spend time farming for them.

Make it 50, 99, 200, any amount of totems to give an end point to grinding this dead content.

Thank you.

Just put it on an NPC or make the card like a straight drop (kinda like how the 24 mans are). Anything more then like 5-10 totems would be too much considering that G+Warrior is only 1 run each of 3 different EX fights.

Farming low drop rate cards in instanced battle content is one of the most punishing time:reward ratio activities. I got tired of running long fights repeatedly and not seeing cards. Would love more cards to be available by playing cards, with the battle content being an alternative method, not the only method.

Yeah. Let us win all the cards by actually playing cards. Isn't that the point? Cards shouldn't be exclusive to battle content in the first place.

I wouldn't see the harm in this. While they are at it, I feel they should probably do the same with other Extreme only card drops.

Personally I'd like to get away with any of this 'grinding' nonsence (that's what the mounts are for) and just awarded us the card upon earning the Extreme trial achievement. Could do the same with dungeons too.
If not, then do the 24man thing and let us roll on it every time. This random chance is just so frustrating when you're trying to get a specific card.

So far there are only Thordan EX and Varis EX.
G-Warrior is kinda there too, but it already requires a totem from each Weapon EX.

I'm pretty sure the card from Seat of Sacrifice is extreme only as well unless they changed it.

Edit: Listed as a drop from either version on the Lodestone. Nevermind.

Hopefully they look at this in the future. Now that they bumped the droprate from playing NPC's (which is a brilliant change and has made TT far more enjoyable and worth getting into), there's a disparity between cards obtained from playing and low droprate cards from instances.

Have to say I agree with most here. It hadn't dawned on me that with this buff to NPC drop rates, we now have to grind regular battle content more for cards than we have to play the card game they're for.

I finally got Varis on my 52nd clear and had I still needed any NPC cards, I'm willing to bet I could have won them all in the time I spent waiting for my parties to fill.

The buff to NPC drop rates was MASSIVE. Problem is, battle drop rates are unchanged I don't know how many more Pharos Sirius (hard) or Sophia kills I have left in me.

I am slowly losing sanity trying to get Eden's Promise.
At first it was bugged and didn't drop at all.
They fixed that you could get the card in the first place, but since it's a 5 star, the drop rate is ridiculously low.

They made a mistake with this one. Unless you get lucky, it's possible to lose 100+ hours of your life farming this one fight and getting nothing, as I've seen many card farmers complain. Too low of a drop rate for too long of a fight.

It's just a card... they should make it like the alliance raid cards and put it in the treasure coffer so that it always drops but you need to roll on it. Somebody will always get one, and that's fine for a side content minigame.

The vast majority of people will never care about cards if it takes way too much dedication to collect. I'm not even sure it's a good idea for them to be untradeable, but unlike song rolls they contain spoilers so that needs consideration.

Yes please!!! THIS!!!
The fight is old / dead content and totems are for glam only....
Grinding this for ~50 times (for many the last card) is just sooo lost time and disgusting at this point in Game 5.57.
At least let us trade totems or give the card in the chest like the 24-man runs.
Many incl. me loose interest and patience in a game, that walls EVERYTHING on a damn RNG just to keep player busy.
That's not the way most US/EU player enjoy these kind of games....

Thank u!

20 additional runs on Miseria Ex since the last post and still no TT-card has drop'd.
The whole RNG BS is getting out of hands especially with this fight (since no alternatives to get it....)
What I do with the 100 Totems and the dead, old glam (i already have from the last 100000 fights)?

Please SE, let us finally trade the Totems for the TT-card Varis yae Galvus.
Or give us at least an alternate way to get it (normal fight, NPC, GoldSaucer, Moogle Tomes, ...

Thank u!

I think I will wait until Endwalker, they might put some boring Dungeon/Trials Cards on NPC.
I love to play TT, I don't wanna do Instances repeatly.

I just wanted to add my support for this addition. Please let us either trade tokens or add an npc we can compete against.

I'm now on run 73 of this fight. I loved learning it, now this is just pure misery. I dont want to play this game anymore.

We need to push this addition! I'm so done with this damn Fight. 40,50 or like in ur case 73 fiights of an EX fight, paired with no alternatives and no possibility to trade or use the Totems, other than the old glam, we already have and not use anymore.

Every newer fight, droprate (mounts) or stuff gets nerv'd over time or is offered on an alternate method.

Just this BS Fight not. We don't farm 320 Cards over weeks, just to stuck on SE's RNG obsession and pure misplanning of an achievement by 1 TT-Card.

Disgusting and toxic in every sight.

Having run this fight 30 more times since I lasted posted…please buff the drop rate. Having to beg my friends and fc mates to help start a PF is getting old. Not getting the card while I watch other people joyfully yell they got it their second run is getting old. I’m getting old. This fight got old quick. Totums, drop rate. I don’t care. Please do something.

I can't agree more. I only have a few cards left. Today, I joined a Byakko dog farm. I just needed the card; I've long had the dog. The group farmed the 7 dogs and I didn't get my card. People left and we refilled the group, got those people dogs and still my card didn't drop. We refilled again and finally I got it. I would trade totems for that card or I'd lot against people. I'd also rather I could play cards for, you know, my cards.

I still have one card left after Byakko and it's Varis Galvus. I killed him a few times when he came out, but I never thought to farm him for his card. I've been playing TTT for years, while waiting for duties to start and when they released the new mount I was only a few cards away from having everything. Going back for these cards has been an awful experience.

Please for the love of something holy provide an NPC or alternative way of getting this card. I've recently taken up Triple Triad and have really enjoyed it. I have around 310 cards and want to go for the mount. I don't really want to have to spam extreme battle content that no one wants for this.

Still relevant today.

On run 37 with no luck. This isn't fun. It's frustrating.

please, i killed thordan over 70 times for the card, allone. on lvl 80.

Isnt there a thing that increases the drop chance for cards if you do it synched or on min-ilvl? perhaps i am mistaken.

Not for TT cards.

That's only for the drops that get rolled on. Cards are personal drops and not part of the regular loot pool (except in alliance raids.)

Someone at Squeenix must get a sick thrill from seeing people get this frustrated.
