I would say either Emerald or Innocence have the least changes. Both should be pretty easy by now too, although Emerald is on the current gear tier. Innocence is a launch trial and is mostly dodging aoes anyways. Ruby is also fairly unchanged although there are a couple major things to look out for. The other fights have more significant changes although most of them are significantly outgeared (and I never got around to the current EX which is something I will do when I resub for the events so I can't speak to that one).

The good news is that you don't really need a huge primer for EX trials. The 15 minute videos or a text guide are generally enough to suffice. If you are comparing to savage, they are a tier below those in terms of complexity, and multiple tiers under the most complex savage fights (4/8/12s).

edit: A tangent but speaking of text guides does anyone know a good updated resource for them? Saltedxiv used to be my go-to and it still has most everything from the current expac, but after the community drama ran the site manager out of the game it doesn't look like anyone has stepped up to take over, and the Balance has barely gotten its shit together since. So I'm not sure what things are gonna look like come Endwalker. It's a real shame.
