Ifrit Extreme....What's Different?

Then... Please, humor a person who can't in his mind fathom how this is 'not hard' anywhere at all...
What would you consider a 'hard' quest?

Final Fantasy XI Mythic weapons. For a weapon that is considered rare it should not be obtainable in less then a week. A skilled group such as the one who took down Ifrit will probably do that in even less time.
