    I look back on 2.1 as the golden age for EX Primals, really. While the fights were tough, they were relevant for a long time because they offered meaningful rewards.
    To be honest, Garuda was the only one with a meaningful reward because unless you could do coil it was the only way you were getting a second i90 ring.

    I never felt compelled to farm Titan/Ifrit for anything other than the pony because you could just grab myth accessories and call it a day.

    The accessories from Titan/Ifrit were BiS for a handful of classes. You're also forgetting the Primal Focus quest, which offered i90 weapons once per week.

    BiS would like to say hello! There were plenty of meaningful rewards for different classes in titan ex and ifrit ex. Ilvl 90 =/= BiS.

    ^^^ also the weapon. Those weapons were amazing for alt classes and some classes had amazing itemization on those primal weapons.

    As for the weapons, relic zeniths were a whole helluva lot easier to get and were shinier. The only remotely difficult part was getting the Titan HM win, and if you had trouble with that back then you were likely not even thinking about getting a win on EX primals yet.
    That is such a bad bad bad bad outlook on gear, especially if you're way over the accuracy cap.
