The author continues his study of Schur indices of complex irreducible characters of finite reductive groups. In particular, his present treatment shows that any semisimple character of the finite Ree group \(^2F_4(2^{2n+1})\) has Schur index one, and that any complex irreducible character of the Steinberg triality group \(^3D_4(2^{3n})\) also has Schur index one. Some earlier results are reproved.
