Is it difficult to get groups for the old EX primal fights?

[Fendred]

So, I've been back for a little over a month now and only just realized that I can get an ilvl 100 weapon for 10 rowena tokens. I still have 6 left over from when I was farming them back in 2.1 and so it wouldn't take much to get one of those weapons. However, I also noticed that very few people actually form groups for those fights anymore. Is it difficult to get a winning team now or is it so much easier that people just DF it?

The Gerolt i100 weapons uses a different version of Rowena tokens from the ones you get from Ex Primals. They're purchasable only with Soldiery Tomestones for 130 each. For a total of 1300 Soldiery.

Why did the NA staff give two different items the same name? That's another discussion.

The Rowen Tokens you're thinking about are different from the ones acquired from the EX Primal trio. The Rowena Token you need to trade for the i100 weapon is one you purchase for 130 Soldiery each and labelled as a "Rowena Token (Soldiery)"

Oh! Thanks for letting me know. I had no idea I was wasting my time. Wow, that is pretty misleading!

I just want to get a group who will farm them for mounts.. Why can't I just clone myself..

It's not really difficult to get groups, I see them all the time in the PF.

Getting groups that will reliably kill it, however...

People in the past would form groups to get past them because they were needed to open other fights. That changed once 2.3 rolled out. However that doesn't mean that the ex fights are not lucrative. The accessories they drop can make valuable desynth ingredients.

I see both being a problem. Most people are out in hunting groups because there's nothing else to do in this game anymore but hunt Pokeymanz.

Let alone if you actually DO get a group together, you ask if everyone's done it before, they say yes, only to find out mid-fight that more than half don't understand the mechanics or have never even done the fight and were just expecting a carry.
