    7% of registered collectors have the M4 minion (guaranteed drop). Of those:
    • 17% have the M4 Savage mount (guaranteed drop)
    • 13.89% have the Valigarmanda Extreme mount (2% drop rate)
    Now that isn't fair. Valigarmanda's mount drop rate isn't guaranteed, and if it were, the figure would likely be way higher. Let's do this on the previous tier where the extreme mount is guaranteed:

    23% have the P12 minion (guaranteed drop). Of those:
    • 16.5% have the P12 Savage mount (guaranteed drop)
    • 7.8% have the Abyssal Fracture Extreme mount (guaranteed after 50 runs)
    So it is looking like more people get the Savage mounts than get the Extreme mounts, despite that Extremes are definitely regarded as easier. More people are clearing the harder content than the easier content if we believe this, because they see Extremes as a joke.

    Yet here you are thinking Extremes are for hardcore raiders. Hardcore raiders think they're a joke and aren't even bothering, based on this. Or at least, they put off farming Extremes for years until they can unsync farm them.

    Lucky Bancho only gets data on the number of people who cleared last floor savage. Many people only clear 1-3 floors or don't beat last one however.

    According to Lucky Bancho (as of yesterday), JP worlds as well as many Aether and Primal worlds, have seen nearly 50% of the people that clear M4 Normal also clear M4 Savage. However, some worlds, particularly on data centers like Meteor, Crystal, Dynamis and Materia, are more in the area of 33%.

    So what that tells you is that if you have beaten M4 Normal you have at least a 50% chance of being capable of beating M4 Savage. Your chances of beating 1-3 are likely even higher than that, because we can't get data on those.

    (For context, anyone that hasn't beaten M4 Normal is obviously not actually playing the game or didn't beat Dawntrail yet. It's highly unlikely you would be actively playing and not have beat it)
