Garuda EX is just a pain of a fight. Titan ex is easy compared to it. I had a similar experience with garuda ex... wipe after wipe after wipe for prob over 30 tries... at the end with a random team of end game raiders we still had to get to echo 10% or so before winning it. I don't plan to ever again run garuda ex... that's a pain I can live without. Titan ex though is fun and easy... got to adds on the first try - only reason I didn't clear it yet is because I get preoccupied with other things... like T5 training with my own group - hoping for a clear this weekend.
