Mog King EX - Longest queue in game?

[Fevelle]

Hi!

I've been progressing trough the Extremes, because I want to complete all the sidequests before entering the new content (someday I'll catch up with the patches, I just don't know when).

The problem is: I'm stuck at Mog EX. Me (WHM) and my best friend (SCH) queued for this little monstruosity since saturday. 5 hours queue at saturday (0/2 TANK, 2/2 HEALERS, 4/4 DPS). Got out and tried party finder. Just one person (DPS) joined, left after 25 minutes waiting for more people to join.

Sunday: we both queued together again. 2:35 hours, 0/2 tanks. We decided to do Odin, queued, healed the fight, won. Back to queueing for Mog. More 2 hours: 0/2 tanks, 4/4 DPS.

I tried today too, alone. 0/2 tanks 1/2 healers, 4/4 DPS. FOR 3 HOURS STRAIGHT.

Am I just extremely unlucky or no one wants to tank this fight?

There is no reward to do it anymore the gear you get from it is really outdated. It's not linked to any of the main story quests you are better off skipping it for now and going back later if you can find people. Nobody is doing it at all.

It's also a huge pain in the ass in DF because you generally get people with no idea what to do and it can take an hour to teach them.

Ontop of all of this, it's also the only EX primal that does not drop a mount, excluding HW primals. Add it all together and there's practically no incentive for people to run this fight unless it's a sync'd PT trying to farm whiskers

So my only alternative is to skip it and keep trying until a get a run? Oh, lord

Yeah, the only people running that are doing for the Whisker drop that is used to make the glamour weapons that sell for millions. If you were on my server me and my FC would help you out...maybe someone will help you. Maybe you have to bride them with a little gil but I'm sure someone would do it for free just have to catch the right day and time probably. That is touph luck.

you can 3 or 4 man mog ex with lvl 60 unsynced

3 if you are good, 4 if you play average

When using Party Finder, try shout in the popular areas. If it's not a very off peak time, this normally speeds up people joining.

I normally wait 15-20 mins, then try shouting. All Heavensward areas + 2.0 main cities + Mor Dhona + Popular FATE locations like Northern Thanalan and Costa Del Sol.

Repeat shouting every 5 mins or so and it normally speeds up getting a full party. And don't give up after 25 mins, just let the full party finder queue time of 1 hour expire.

It's also an annoying and unsatisfying fight too

And the whisker doesn't drop in undersized parties.

To put it simple: Noone likes this fight. All friends and me avoid this instance... I'll need to run it on our 3 mans one day but I avoid Mog EX maybe even more than Iffi EX unsynced with more than 4 people
