E5N was the sprout killer, in fact the missery I felt from Valigarmarda reminded me of that fight. P2N I remember with certain disdain too. Obviously O11 with the lardboard/starboard bullshit. As for trials Golbez I found particularly difficult.
But the thing is those are outliers in terms of difficulty, dungeons and trials you do them once and when you have bad luck in roulettes. DT is consistently harder all across the board, there is no escape.
Valigarmanda is done pretty much entirely for you by your trusts, though. Like I'm not being hyperbolic here, you can just ignore the entire fight and just do your damage rotation while standing wherever they stand and the trial is trivial, probably one of the easiest trials the MSQ has had in several expansions.

If THAT is too hard for you then I'm sorry but I think the issue isn't difficulty, the issue is that you Just Don't Like Final Fantasy 14 Anymore and instead of admitting that and canceling your sub and saving yourself 15 bucks a month you're trying to blame the difficulty for some reason.
