Don't shit up what's supposed to be the hardest encounter in the game because of some people's overinflated sense of loot entitlement. Everyone should realize from what happened with Ifrit and Moogle that this will be made easier eventually. If you really need to beat new content right away, you should stop complaining about challenge and embrace it.
    I get your point and I kind of agree with you, but "Loot" is not the goal.

    Think about it, you can die easily doing it and you have to wait 15 minutes even on a loss, and the strategy only shaves off a few minutes. The amount of losses you can get just ups the amount of loss chances at weapon.

    If you did it legit, you could pretty much 100% guarantee a win, and you only need to do it 140 times to be 7/7, which is going to happen very fast weather you use this exploit or not. The legit videos are all under 10 minutes kill time.

    It is just, an easy strategy once you meet the strict requirements. Its a "safe spot" strategy, like Ifrit.

    A lot of people know how to do it legit, my entire LS did it legit before this came about, this is just more preferred because the legit way isnt harder, it isnt more challenging, it isnt even more fun and it is kind of a drag+cluster fuck XD so they prefer to do it like this.

    It is kind of more fun for some, I find it more fun this way! XD

    We both know that's not true. Countless LS's can't beat the fight legit and are farming it via BLM burn.

    BLM burning Ifrit and Moogle doesn't skip all the fight mechanics. BLM burning will be "legit" once Garuda is patched.

    ah no idea about that, I haven't tried garuda hard yet.
    but basically they are killing garuda before it uses its 2HRs right?

    seems a screw up on SE's design

    I dont know its true, I have seen people kill it legit, there were plenty of Garuda Kills before the BLM spree happened, plenty of videos as well. You have no proof they cant do it legit, just like i have no proof they can, thus its moot.

    I skip avoiding plumes legitimately by standing in a spot i know they never spawn, skipping that game design XD
