Hm, thats disappointing. Im not gonna do it then. Everything that involves spreadsheets and requiring you to watch a 30 min guide(for example p7s has a 30 min guide on yt) multiple times im out of. Anyway thanks for the feeback![]()

If it helps, ARR Ex... heck most Ex, do not require spreadsheets or watching guides. Its more than possible to do them blind or with a few people who know the ropes to pop tips at you.
I did the ARR Ex trials blind, it took a while to clear a few first time, but not obscenely so. Ramuh, one of the hardest of the ARR bunch, took about 2 hours blind, sync, no echo.

You don't need to watch a guide necessarily. You will eventually learn it just from joining [Practice] parties and wiping. People just recommend guides so that it wastes their time less.
If you really struggle with a specific mechanic, and there are a few mechanics that are hard to understand without a visual diagram such as Devour in P5S or Harvests in P7S, then you can skip to that specific mechanic in the video and just look at the information for that.
A lot of people make strategy pictures that just show a still image of what to do for mechanics like that, so you can get away without a video at all even for mechanics like those.
In other news, there is no technical debt from 1.0.
"We don't have ... a technological issue that was carried over from 1.0, because ARR was meant to kind of discard what we had from 1.0 and rebuild it from the engine."

Bozja is basically the content that has midcore difficulty. Slightly harder than your average runs, easier than your "EX" fights mechanically, but a lot more people in the instance and a lot more leniency. Though, it's not that once people start using the right lost actions and essences. It simplifies the difficulty very easily.
Spreadsheets?
Man, I've done every Ultimate out to date and the only time spreadsheets have been needed is the last two minutes of the final phase, and even then that's just cuz it's easier to do that than experiment with 16+ minute pulls what mitigation would work.
Then again I'm a sheltered static player who runs content blind. I dunno how bad guides are these days, and shudder to think what spreadsheets pugs use lol
its why you run on release day. everyone goes in blind and its a pretty fun experience truthfully and the satisfaction is way way up there in terms of completing it.
