    There is not a single EX that is as easy as the royal menagerie.
    But, there ARE some Hard modes, and Normal modes roughly as hard as it, if not harder. (for thier iLv and time.)
    I'd say the royal menagerie is somewhere around Ifrit HM in difficulty, for when it was released, but a tad bit harder than ravanaa HM when people were new. (a lot of groups couldnt clear ravana HM and kept vote abandoning when it was released.)

    This is a step up from whats in the MSQ, but its not on the level of an EX yet. (unless you're severely out gearing an EX.)

    Did you run these fights at minium ilvl, level sync'd back in the day? Titan EX, for instance, was a nightmare back in the day. People should stop comparing RM with ex or savage, they have no idea what they're talking about.

    Do them with gear at the average item level of their time (ilevel 70-90 for Garuda Ex, as an example)

    Even using the Augmented Ironworks, or World of Darkness(Demon?), sets due to the fight taking longer will cause MANY people to wipe since a lot seem to have such short attention spans.
