New Extreme!

Glancing at PF on my server now day 2, there are 14 groups. Just 1 is a blind run, 8 are farm, the rest require a guide and/or are late phase progress.

Oof, I can start a blind run myself, but it surprises me more how there aren't more fresh groups. Are players just that good or can't they be bothered?

Its still early in the day and many are still working. Even with "stay at home orders" there are tons of workers who can't.


I haven't worked from home a single day since this mess started.

Yes.

Btw your character looks really cool.

You are not supposed to notice that. These forums are full of people who claim that the VAST MAJORITY are unable or barely able to E8N, and Ex trials are ONLY for the most hardcore
Seriously though, since the weapon took about an hour or two, and I know a lot of players who expected a full day of gameplay from this content patch yesterday, they all just did the new Ex a couple of times. As servers were shaky and thus Savage raiding is rarely done on tuesday, I imagine a lot of actual raiders just burned through the Ex as well.

So I think a huge number of players already got it on farm (given how guides were out within a few hours, it shows its not a hard fight), and since the rewards are outdated already, we will see some people farm it for a specific piece of glamour for a bit longer. And yes, the rest cant be bothered. Its outdated old rewards already.

Well I don't like any of the ShB AF sets so I really don't care about it. If they locked the weapon behind it I would either just contact one of the kill sellers that still do stuff like that for gil or just drop the game until the next expansion and do it unsynced.
