Content bottle necks

[Seif]

I love the fact that XIV poses real challenges to the players please don't think of this as a plea to make it easier.

However I am having hard time getting any sort of group together for few fights.

Nobody is in que for Moogle Extreme and the times I've gotten in the teams barely live for more than 60 seconds so obviously I haven't had any significant learning experience there. I've seen the videos but there are no chances to practice the fight ever.

I've set up learning parties that are up for hours and no slots get filled up.
I just don't see what I can do to overcome this challenge and all the other EX Primals are locked behind this one.

Same story in coil.

I'm now at t8 but parties just don't happen. No-one in pf nor df is doing it and setting it up myself yields no results. In the mean time I have studied the fights with the best of my ability online but in practice it seems I need some real axe-to-mob-time to properly learn these.

Any tips on what I should do?

My ilvl is 113 if that is relevant to this.

And honestly any practical tips beyond "get a static" would be greatly appreciated.

exactly what advice beyond getting a static are you expecting? your problem is you cant clear content because you cant find 7 others to do it with so how is finding those 7 and making a LS for people you know can get things done not "getting a static". this game allows for 2 play styles forming a static and whatever it is you're doing.

Don't you have an FC? Find a helpful one?

Hey i see we are on same server, one of my friends just came back a couple days ago and also needs mog EX we plan on doing it this week. What times do you usually play?

[Kiara1]

Well this is an mmorpg, so I would recommend you to talk to people, make friends, add people you think play well to your friend's list. Thats how I learned every fight. My server is really slow to join PF's so it's usually not an option unless I wanna wait an hour or two, so I usually need to ask around.
There may also be linkshells on your server to help new/farm ex primals and coil.

People are not really up for doing Moogle Extreme with DF or PF when people are new as it is not a very pug-friendly fight. You will have the same problem with Ramuh Extreme. Your best bet is to ask your FC for help or join an endgame LS.

i think it really is because the ilvls increase too fast. i would like the game to have increases maybe every half a year or longer, so content stays relevant longer.
But as soon as you beat moogle x you dont go back to that fight, since after is shiva, and the possible gear drop on moogle isnt worth it for most people.
It's sad but true and it happens to everything.

Coil is even worse. after 1 week or maybe 2 (if your lucky) it's almost impossible to join people since you are not pro yet. It's a pretty sad and stupid development.
I blame the 100% scripted fights that have close to zero randomness. If they had, it would be harder to "learn" them instead you would need more skill. But its a easy way to create content. Sadly the perfect recipe for these kinda developments in the community and for fast boredom.

Lol I find it rather ironic that your talking about ilvl increases being "too fast" here, as well as content staying relevant "longer" and you started another thread requesting SE drop the tome cap limit entirely.

Doing so would obviously let people attain ilvls "faster" and "shorten" the longevity of the content to do so.

Suggestions such as dropping the tome cap and reducing the rewards without a corresponding large increase in overall content is just attempting to trade apples for oranges

If you're in a big, active and helpful FC, it shouldn't be difficult to organise a FC learning / clear party for the fights you need. If your FC isn't supporting your progress, consider joining another.
