Just did all 7 Diamond weapon (cloud deck) was my only 99, but SoS had the worst drop rate for whatever reason Also cloud deck you need everyone to be 640+ to skip the first phase. Having someone dedicated to calling out when to spread was key to smooth runs
This is such a helpful video as someone who missed the wave on SHB EX fights and have never done them before, but wanting to drop into farm parties. Thank you so much!
I'd love to see an updated video on this now that Dawntrail is out. I'm leveling a WAR to 100 in a vain attempt to solo these EX trials myself, because I really do like that Landerwaffe mount.
@@SamsonGrey26 now if you did something like this for the old savage raids, those would help players get those mounts more confidently as well im sure. i just finished the omega ones with help, but havent even looked at eden yet, and i want those. thankfully theyre a 100% drop chance. (PS as im typing this im setting up my PF for my last gwiber farm, and ill finally have waffles)
Really appreciate this! Any chance of an updated video now that Dawntrail has released? Would be nice to see if these fights became much easier with Dawntrail! :)
Shadowbringers was the last Expansion i did everything on Patch. But after farming 99 WoL,Emerald and Twintania Totems i was burned out. For Endwalker i did every Fight just once for the Clear. Waiting for Dawntrail to get my Mounts. At least you have to do only 50 Runs instead of 99. Great Video though. Didnt know you can already skip so much of these fights.
Yeah similar for me in EW, bar the odd extra run for a weapon for an alt job. Obvs just personal preference but mainly for me just because i'm not a particular fan of the endwalker end trial mount, hard to motivate to grind to get it, may even have to wait until 8.0 that way!
Do you know what was your average ilvl when you went into these raids? Trying to check if a healer is really needed for some of these fights. Also M.Grey I must say that the way you explain those fights was very simple and clean. Thanks!
thanks, appreciate the kind words! In most the footage in the vid i'm on Summoner where i was about 658, tho often in my farms i was on Warrior at about 645. Min IL set when forming or joining parties was generally 640. Other than the 3 fights noted prob very difficult to get away with 0 healers (defo not sos drops everyone to 1 hp and have to be healed up, emerald wepeon balls hit super hard etc..) though always fun to experiement, love to hear if you manage it!
@@SamsonGrey26 We did those farming runs with ease at 660, we've put the avg ilvl at 640 and it went more than smooth. Again thanks for this guide we got our mounts and are now rushing ourselves to finish Endwalker mount before DT. Awesome guide and I look forward to see other videos from you! Thanks!
640 you say? cuz I really want the "Speed Demon" title (since I named my character after a race car), but I am terrified of EX trials! And when I watch the MTQ guides on these trials, it only makes them even more terrifying.
Ha an apt title for you, can see why you want it! 640 is a rough guide line in order to get through the fights as specifically described in this guide. I found most party finder groups had a range of people from like 630 -660, but higher the better really to get the boss down as quick as possible to see as few mechanics as possible. I recommend joining a dancing plague ex or Crown of the immaculate ex group first, mow them down to get your confidence going! You can do it! :)
@@SamsonGrey26 Ive cleared all of the EX fights at this point (except for Titania bc I already got that gwib from the 10 year mogtome event). I' ve still gotta get the Ruby gwib but it just hasnt dropped yet--the fight is very easy, I'm up to 62 totems. Castrum Marinum and Seat of Sacrifice were the hard ones, especially the Aetheroplasm orbs in Marinum bc there's always somebody who won't do the orbs. The warrior of light lb3 in SoS didn't require that *everybody* did it, just that *most* people did it, so we were able to get away with that one even if not everyone was on board. But the stupid orbs in Marinum require everybody to participate so that become a real point of contention. other than that it all went well. I must've watched this video like 100 times throughout the process. it's very useful. It focuses on the stuff that I actually *need* to know and doesn't bog me down with information about mechanics that I can more-or-less just heal through (I was the healer in most of these fights)
New player here finishing up shadowbrimgers getting ready for dawn trail. How do you have the boss big moves on your screen there? for example 4:45. Just a hud move ?
Yep just a option in the HUD. Can't remember the names/settings off the top of my head but covered it off in this old vid:) ; ua-cam.com/video/2m8BlZKdCVs/v-deo.html
Calling ShB Mid-Core Grind is kinda beeing a casual and not accepting it... Lord i hate FFXIV Players... Half of them failing doing WoL Ex, cause they need to know 4 mechs
FYI full 99 tokens on seat of sacrifice was my worst slog, otherwise dropped each of the other mounts in 60 runs or less! :)
I just ran SoS last night and someone in the group got their 99th totem :/
I feel that pain, if you've one to get 99 totems for, hope it's diamond weapon! :)
Just did all 7

I hear Titania, Innocence and Ruby are soloable, but they take a while and I think you need good RNG.
Party finder dog.
i needed half of these clears just to unlock mentor roulette again. really helped speed that up and improve my confidence
Nice! very happy to here it help, congrats on getting through them all! :)

Defo Gonna put this on the list of videos to do once we're at level 100 and dawtrail release hype dies down, great idea!
Great guides, you've given me the confidence to go into pf for my last 2 and get my mecha dragon
Appreciated! Yeah you'll be all good, your nearly there! my 300+ PF runs were great. Best of luck with your loot rolls! :)
Really appreciate this! Any chance of an updated video now that Dawntrail has released? Would be nice to see if these fights became much easier with Dawntrail! :)
Can't promise it'll be that soon but defo on the list to get too!
Thank you sam for this as always keep it up 👍
Appreciated! :)
Far and away better than the EW trial mount for sure.
Seriously have no motivation to grind EW trials for that mount, maybe when we're like level 120 and can solo them! 😅
The fact it's Bahamut from FF4 is cool though
@@SamsonGrey26yeah until we can solo don’t like foward to getting that mount looks underwhelming

I had to 99 emerald weapon. Someone got the mount on their alt.
But then I got hades and ruby the same day as each other 🤷
What a day, I'd of slept well that night! :)
i will henceforth pronounce the Landerwaffe mount as ''Landwaffle''
welcome to the club! 😂

What of now ? We are 100, would it be a lot easier ?
It's not easy easy it's rng praying

They are subjective terms, not always regarding difficulty in relation to skill.
Can someone get me a band-aid? I think I cut myself on this guy's edginess.
