The Problem with Extreme Primals...

Actually, you just need people willing and capable to help. Ever since 2.2, I've gotten most of my FC members through Titan and in the process of making them learn Levi EX.

and good luck with that, because of the quite toxic community if you're unfamiliar with a fight, not many are gonna be arsed to help you. Not everyone has willing FC, either.

I do agree that it's part of the problem with SE's model of player progression. You need cape westwind (who does that anymore?) to continue with the storyline. You need to beat Garuda (lol lowdps) and Titan (lol lag) to get to Ifrit (lol easy primal), and this is all old content. Newbies looking to get to the new content will get stonewalled pretty quick.

Then they should have befriended people that are skilled and friendly. There are plenty of them out there that would be willing to help but because you keep seeing the community as negative as a whole, you'll never find it. Also, are they supposed to unlock Garuda and Titan just so the newbies can experience Ifrit? No. There are certain progression in each fight. If you can't beat Garuda, good luck with Titan. It's not that old of content when it was released a bit more than 4 months ago.
You probably have never played LoL if you think this is a toxic community.
