Why is Ramuh EX so hard :(

[Parodine]

Ramuh EX is stupidly easy. It's the other players that make it difficult.

I feel like this could be said of ANY EX fight, really.

I think Ramuh takes a lot of practice and it helps to have a core group go in each time to practice with and quickly understand how things will be communicated. Like another poster said, this can make pugging Ramuh Ex incredibly difficult.
But if you can get a core group, just keep at it. An FC static of mine took a couple nights each week and would slowly work through the phases, and by now we have it on farm fairly easily. Just keep telling yourself 'Welp, no landslides.'

Landslides are way easier to deal with compared to Chaos Strikes because so many pugs fail at this.

A lot of pugs I've met fail pretty hard at landslides, honestly. Whether it's lag or just not knowing, who knows. But weight of the lands is another one that can be unforgiving with even just slight lag. Ramuh's moves seem less to me.

I guess if we keep making this a help thread: the best way my static learned to deal with chaotic strikes was to play waymarks in three corners of the circle. We would primarily use one until the add phase. And then as we moved around killing the adds, use another one, etc. If something screwed up and they didn't make it, then they would quickly announce over team-speak, etc.

But mentioning teamspeak...it helps a lot with communication for us. But I see how that can make PUGing it difficult, again, since most won't be utilizing that. Hopefully people who have beaten it without ever using it can offer more tips.
