People who haven't cleared Contaiment Bay S1T7 (Extreme) yet.

Jeez! is this that bad i PF? mechanically its alot more simple than Thordan EX but then again one death in last phase can easily start a snowball effect that wipes whole party. I have never really used PF so i dont know how things are going in there, i have heard all these horror stories so i will stick with my team instead. My suggestion would be that if you find even remotely good group in PF you should add them(good ones)on your firend list or form some kind of "EX primal" LS for this and future fights, doing EX and Raids is alot more fun with peoples you know so it will be win-win ^^

Depends on the server I guess but I'm honestly pretty surprised at Tonberry.
I'm not gonna server hop because I love this place too much but eh, you're right about it being really simple, phase 3 you see everything you've seen it all, nothing is random except for who gets green and orange icons.

Last night helped a friend to clear with 4 ppl premade. First team didn't work out so disbanded and started new and took along the random tank because he was defo worth it second team took the full timer but we cleared it in the end with 3 firsttimers... went to farm (let in another firsttimer) and had 4 kills 1 wipe, then reformed again with a new heal (firsttimer) - we oneshot but after that the healer kept wiping us. After that called it.
I don't have any issues to give people a spot in a farm if they do their job. "replace as needed" that is either a bonus or somone with 552365422 kills. The one wiping us gets a warning then the boot - well I ask them to leave simple as that.
It is getting farmable on Cerby atm so yea good hopes for this trial

6 hours and our static finally mastered it. At 4 hours we had hit a 3% Enrage so I donated about 1mil in gil to update our gear, and taught them the strategies to maximize DPS (The dragoon picked up a few skills from me after I went dragoon for a round, such as a well-timed spineshatter during the fist knockbacks and being greedy with DPS on the front-right if we sweep the tethers to the left. Good things like that.)

Gotta say I'm pretty proud of them at the moment. They're definitely not the kind of people that are ever gonna be world first, but they're devoted. They worked their butts off to get it down and learn it.

What I hate the most is everytime I fail I'll have to start over from the first phase. This fatso god wannabe was so weak in FFVI.

I joined a total of 2 learning parties and mastered the fight within 2 hours. Got my clear the very same day and can now do it in my sleep as any job of the trinity and teach others.
The very first learning party was a bust on first phase so I'm not counting most of that time towards my actual "learning". If we are talking about total time spent in there it would be 6 hours.

I subbed in for a friend's static so they can get me a clear for the sake of having another person to farm with. I made the mistake of not jumping on this early. In this game, if you don't do high end content quickly, you will almost always get left behind if you lack a static and that ticks me off.

Today I got to giant phase within 3 or 4 wipes of people learning the fight. Once we disbanded a tank came in and after a single wipe, he was one of those who died, he ragequits.
Party finder can be either a great experience or a shitty one. At least I learned more today.

[Awful]

We cleared tonight after a few hours of doing it with the same people we lost our nin and subbed in a blm (was a 6/8 FC group). We one shot it with the blm next pull now we just gotta farm it for our weapons for Midas savage next week :/ bleh.

Ended up moving to Masamune temporarily to see if I can find a party to help me clear with.
Feel no better than the NA's that server hop for clears but I just wasn't getting anywhere with these "Aim to clear" groups which translates to "Please carry me through phase 3" Had people join my party in Tonberry before I moved who didn't believe me when I said 4 DPS can get the orange icon and low and behold it happened.

Yeah I know this is extreme levels of salty.
