no more ex modes till heavensward? o.O

They could step it up in a big way for an Ex version. They really dropped the ball by failing to give us some decent mid range content this patch.

Which is why I think this is the worst patch (taking 2.3's spot). An 'EX Mode' they could have done could have been a 'Mistral's Ballad: The Ascian's Bane'. Fight Lahabrea and Nabriales and be rewarded with i125 weapons and i130 accessories.

More proof 2.1 was the high point!

Turns 1-5 were still a thing.

i90 had multiple paths.
Myth tombs = i90
Coil = i90
EX ifrit,titan,garuda = i90

Relics = i90
Weekly tokens = i90
Coil wep = i95

iLvL was not a thing, player skill was a thing. Scared to enter coil? No prob get i90 via other means and then try. The player base was broad as were the gear routes.

You mean a brand new released game as more content than the following patches ? I never would have guessed.

Why are people still making this mistake?

Because the name of the game is Cryptkeeper XIV A Realm Undead?

Square Enix really dropped the ball not giving us a trial worth doing in this patch. Every other patch has added relevant trials.

2.1 added 3 (Titan ex, Garuda ex, Ifrit ex),
2.2 added 2 (Moggle Mog ex, Levi ex),
2.3 added 1 (Ramuh ex),
and 2.4 also added 1 (Shiva ex)

Now all of a sudden 2.5 comes along and they add nothing relevant. What's the deal? I hope 3.1 is as good as 2.1 was.

Just keep in mind that 2.5 was split into two parts. An EX Odin hasn't been denied by the devs. So, anything is possible.

Praetorium Extreme! Yes please XD

I rather have more challenging open world content with useful gear (Fraction Leves, etc) then more EX primals with vanity gear

So you don't like odin? All the other EM primals except for Ramuh dropped useful gear when they were released.

We need more sidegrade gear, if you don't do coil or you're unlucky you will never get 2 i130 rings as it stands.
