TT #420 from EX?

[LibitIncarne]

We've had cards exclusively from only one of the duties before. It happens sometimes that it's only a specific one.

There is only one instance of this.
The Minstrel's Ballad: Thordan's Reign, which is the Extreme version which people are actually inclined to spam.

Not a bug, it's intentional design.

Thordan's card only drops from Thordan EX. QE's card only drops from The Interphos. The DB on the lodestone confirms it.
Certainly won't be the last time they'll hard lock it to one particular instance, just a matter of how many years between them doing so again.

Yes, and it makes farming Thordan's card an absolute pain in the ass, you can't skip his Limitbreak sequence in the EX, even if you take out all his HP in phase 1, he will cling there with 0.1% HP no matter how hard you hit, then go through the entire LB sequence, and then drop dead as soon as it is done.
