Hello, ([[/r/FFXV]]). This one was definitely worth doing a guide for, however, I'll try to provide as many methods as possible for the '''non-Season Pass ''' players because this '''Timed Quest ''' leans heavily towards the '''Season Pass ''' players, as far as time and efficiency goes. This '''Timed Quest ''' is quite the tough one, most definitely just as tough as '''Dread Behemoth ''' or even tougher considering the restrictions, etc. However, I enjoyed making this guide since it took longer to do experiments and well, I thoroughly tested everything and have came up with the following methods that will be listed down below. I must say, I had the most fun creating this guide because of the immunity the Tyraneant monsters had. It took a lot of trial and error to figure out what the best methods were for time trimming and well, generally efficiency. This guide includes methods that requires the use of items, etc. Much different to the previous guide!

nyone who is doing this in less than 5 minutes, is abusing the '''Armiger Glitch'''. The actual time to do this is anywhere from 15+ minutes. I do not recommend using the '''Armiger Glitch''', since - what's the point being in the top ranks on a single-player console game? I wouldn't be too sure what you'd be trying to prove. One does not simply be recognized when cheating

People had been wondering about the best ways to farm '''Wind-up Lord Vexxos'''. I've added a farming method, friendly to both '''Season Pass ''' and '''Non-Season Pass players'''. I figured this would be necessary, I hope this helps those who has no intention of climbing the ranking but has more intention for the farming phase of the '''Wind-up Lord Vexxos'''. You can locate this information at the bottom of this guide, after all the efficient methods for EXP/Ranking.

I highly recommend farming '''Zu Beaks ''' for this Timed Quest. Why? '''Limit Break ''' spells will be important for this.

Out of all the elements, I've found Ice to be my personal favorite for this '''Timed Quest'''. It proves most efficient. Only downfall is that it doesn't have the '''damage over-time ''' but don't sweat it, these troublesome Tyraneant's always moves out of the '''Lightning/Fire ''' damage over-time perimeter.

From what I've seen, you can get '''120,000 ''' EXP per run. If you can do this rapidly in anywhere between 15-20 minutes, you'll be netting a large profit as far as EXP farming goes, unfortunately this mainly applies to the '''Season Pass players'''. '''Non-Season Pass players ''' will not benefit EXP in comparison to the ([[Wyvern EXP/Gil Hunt Grinding Method]]) since they will take much longer.

It seems like that if you break their appendages, you will have a chance at looting '''Wind-up Lord Vexxos ''' which is also a limit break catalyst. Thanks to ([[/u/ShirasagiS]]) for pointing this out! If you're using any of the '''Armiger ''' methods, go and break some appendages for a chance at it! Remember, this is based on RNG. There is no guarantee!

Magic Equipped: '''Limit Break ''' Freeze (999 Potency) - '''[Optional, but recommended]'''

Once you're ready to use '''Overwhelm''', pop a '''Freeze ''' on the Tyraneant, preferably try to time it where it hit both of them.

If you so happen to choose not to use any *Limit Break Spells, '''then you can just follow the guide-lines and ignore the **Magic ''' part. However, as stated above, magic use is definitely recommended.*

Main Weapon: '''Your Default Weapon ''' - Doesn't effect Armiger since Armiger uses all available Royal Arms.

Magic Equipped: '''Limit Break ''' Freeze (999 Potency) - '''[Optional, but recommended]'''

If you don't have '''Golden Tail Soup''', any '''+Strength ''' recipes can replace it.

Once you're ready to use '''Armiger''', use '''Power EX'''Use '''Freeze ''' on the Tyraneant, preferably try to time it where it hit both of them.

Magic Equipped: '''Limit Break ''' Freeze (999 Potency)

I used '''Golden Tail Soup'''. This will get you occasional 9999's during Overwhelm.I didn't try any '''+Strength/HP ''' recipe but this is also a plausible choice if you don't have the '''Golden Tail Soup ''' recipe yet!

Attack the '''Tyraneant ''' with Warp-strike or basic attack to fill up tech-bar faster. (Counter as much as possible for extra damage!)Once you're ready to use '''Overwhelm''', pop a '''Freeze ''' on the Tyraneant, preferably try to time it where it hit both of them.

Main Weapon: '''Your Default Weapon ''' - Doesn't effect Armiger since Armiger uses all available Royal Arms.

Magic Equipped: '''Limit Break ''' Freeze (999 Potency) - '''[Optional, but recommended]'''

If you don't have '''Golden Tail Soup''', any '''+Strength ''' recipes can replace it.

Keep attacking the '''Tyraneant ''' to fill up your Armiger bar faster, you won't charge it up as quick '''Season Pass Players ''' otherwise. - (If I remember correctly, even if you use Zwill Crossblades or any other weapons, upon invulnerable hits, you can still charge Armiger. I may be wrong but I remember doing it at one point and successfully charging Armiger. I think I did it on Custards/Dolces back in Menaces, for some odd reason.)Once you're ready to use '''Armiger''', use Ignis's '''Enhancement ''' - *(I'd recommend using this 2 times minimum. If you have a third bar filled, use 3.Use '''Power EX'''Use '''Freeze ''' on the Tyraneant, preferably try to time it where it hit both of them.Use '''Armiger ''' on one of the Tyraneant.

If you don't have '''Golden Tail Soup''', any '''+Strength ''' recipes can replace it.

Whenever Armiger comes up, use Ignis's '''Enhancement'''. 2-3 pops would be just fine!

Main Weapon: '''Your Default Weapon ''' - Doesn't effect Armiger since Armiger uses all available Royal Arms.

If you don't have '''Golden Tail Soup''', any '''+Strength ''' recipes can replace it.

When your Armiger bar is ready, pop it and target it's '''Face/Horn'''.If all goes well on the first Armiger, you should break it's horn for either a '''Treant Trunk ''' or '''Wind-up Lord Vexxos'''. This is all RNG.

Do this for both the '''Tyraneant'''.Once you break the horns for a chance at the '''Wind-up Lord Vexxos ''' for both of them, leave the aggro perimeters and intentionally fail the '''Timed Quest'''.Restart the '''Timed Quest ''' and fall back to step 1.

If you don't have '''Golden Tail Soup''', any '''+Strength ''' recipes can replace it.

Target the Tyraneant's '''Face/Horn'''.Repeatedly Warp-strike until you break it's horn for a chance at either '''Treant Trunks ''' or '''Wind-up Lord Vexxos'''

Repeat this process for both the '''Tyraneant'''.Once you've broken the horn from both the '''Tyraneant''', leave the aggro perimeters and intentionally fail the '''Timed Quest'''.

If you want to save time by efficiently, I recommend saving at the start of the farm. Similar to that with MV2, when you'd save/reload to save time rather than let time goes by. Unless you don't mind farming '''Wind-up Lord Vexxos ''' during the night with a possibility of Daemons spawning, by all means. Just a quick note!

I hope this guide helps both those who are a '''Season Pass Player ''' as well as the '''Non-Season Pass Players'''. Unfortunately, this is some heavy duty required Timed Quest. Once again, combat wise, this will be a tough one for those who aren't close to being prepared. Considering the immunity of these '''Lv130 Tyraneant''', it will require some heavy preparations and definitely should not be considered for lower levels since they won't make it far, unfortunately - truth be told. Anyways, I wish you all a happy grinding and ranking, as always. Feel free to comment below if you have any concerns or questions. I'd be more than happy to answer. Thank you for taking the time to read this and I sure hope this helps you!
