    I was lucky enough to get my Shaggles minion, that minion alone shall never leave my side, I have no need for other inferior minions.

    I'm one of the lucky ones who had that minion drop my first run when I was doing the dungeon for MSQ with Trust.

    I'd highly recommend using Trust to farm for the dungeon minions since you won't have to roll against others also trying to get the minion when it drops. It has a chance to drop whether you're using Scenario or Avatar mode (go Avatar if you want to level your Trust for achievement and title). Earlier in the thread I had mentioned I didn't have the Tiny Troll yet but I did get it 4-5 days later after running the dungeon with Trust in Scenario mode 2-3 times each day.

    I haven't seen a single minion from the EW dungeons drop.
    I didn't even know they existed until recently, tbh.

    But like all things, they come with time.

    This reminds me of how I had to run Wanderer's Palace (Hard) about 30+ times just to get a Caster top.

    I inly use trusts, and I've run the 90 story dungeon only once since I've been leveling all of my classes. When I was running the 89 dungeon, I got the troll. I'm like 'Yay!'.

    The I get the message that I can't acquire it because I already have it.

    Oh.

    I had forgotten I had it, and I couldn't even sell the duplicate.

    I feel like no matter whether we're running trusts or not, the drop rates should not be this horrendous... I've run dead ends more than 50 times since late December, spread about equally between trusts and duty finder, and I've not seen it drop even once.

    Meanwhile, it seems like everyone and their mum has it at this point, while I've seen Caduceus only once, and the 83 dungeon minion at least four times, saying nothing of trying to farm gear sets (I've had at least one Endwalker set that I got almost entirely from guaranteed drops because it just wasn't otherwise)

    Rare drops are rare for a reason, and the minions are supposed to be just that. Want to get one faster? Go to the market board. The rest of us will continue to farm and post them at exorbitant prices so that the lazy (or just people that don't have enough time on their hands, which is totally understandable in today's world) can keep filling our coffers with gil.

    I've made about 100k so far on Garlic Jester's (sold about 5) from the loot boxes over the coarse of a couple of weeks. Nothing that changes the tides, but I was surprised that these guys and the other garden minions still sell pretty regularly. They probably need to stay out of kitchens xD

    As for Starbird, I don't have her, but have only run The Dead Ends maybe 4-5 times since the initial run. It comes up in roulette more often than not right now, so I don't bother farming it. If I get it, I get it.

    I never got Shoebill either, and I actually really want that one. The mount from Ala Mhigo I had to buy with moogle tomes to finally get as I never even saw the key drop, let alone got a chance to roll on it. I'm fine with the RNG for things like minions and mounts, but can understand if there are certain minions a player will want to fit with their character's overall aesthetic.

    Ktisis and Dead Ends' minions are non-tradeable. I would have happily bought the starbird otherwise lol
