How far are you guys in the coils? Are you guys interested in end game? I know not everyone is really concerning themselves with the coils and imo that's a shame. The coils are the most challenging engagement the game has to offer. To pull the coils off takes determination, teamwork and patience. Some people take it too far though. There are a bunch of people running dps parsels to see who has the most deeps and who is dragging everyone down. At times I do think it is very useful to see who has the lowest deeps cause believe me some people can't even do their rotations properly and if that person is not doing sufficient damage to help the whole raid it might end up in a wipe since most coils have an enrage time. So everyone needs to be focused and know their stuff. It can get heated sometimes, but when you pull it off together it's the best feeling you can get imo. Especially if you get the loot you really need.

I used these sites very often.

On the positive side:
Most coils have been severly nerfed and they have added echo in the final coils and removed the weekly loot lock out. Start farming yall!!!!!

I really want to do the Coils but I wanted to do them with FFF guys and we've always been short of one or two end game players. Now it's been nerfed which is a shame because I really wanted a tough challenge for us to tackle. In the expansion they'll add Alexander raids which I'm sure we'll have enough people to run with, should be really cool.

With the whole parsers stuff I think it ruins it a bit because you have such a competitive vibe going around that people end up concentrating on their damage output rather than focusing on the small stuff that really makes a big difference. I haven't got round to doing it yet but I'd really like to soon.

Oh man we have this dick of a monk who is all about them numbers . I have to admit he is pretty badass at his class at his rotation and at his damage output. He is a quick learner and has farmed t12 already multiple times while we started doing final coils together lol. But his attitude is starting to affect our fc members and even people that are further than him ingame are starting to complain about him. Our dragoon is as badass as him and he is starting to behave exactly the same way. It's a shame. I set up a killgroup party for t11 because I wanted to help this hot french chick who at least had like exp till under 10%, but her friend was there for the first time. I didn't know obviously but well let's say our dragoon was pretty raging and shit and eventually ragequitted...

Our fc is casual/semi casual etc. but I hate to see them leave because they are great players and advanced, but if they keep up with their shitty attitude we have no choice to make them leave the fc..we are in need of people for final coils, but it is extremely difficult to find quality people with cool personalities.



In regards of your reply bro. I don't always do raiding with fc members. I do most of my shit through PF. I have met loads of ppl outside the fc and am part of many crowded LS's. Expand bro !

I've completed Turns 1-5 atm, I'm currently working on T6-9 but haven't had much luck finding parties honestly I'm overleveled but in Coil that means nothing lol just means I'll hit the damage cap easier

Honestly Coil is not for the weak of heart, these dungeons are on Dark Souls level difficulty sometimes (looks at Twintania!)

I'm all for doing coil runs but I just need people to not flip the fuck out when I make mistakes since I normally have to actually run a boss before being able to grasp what I need to do (watching videos alone doesn't do shit for me, I have to actually fight and get used to the movements) its why I haven't really done T6 + cause people get all bent out of shape when you do something wrong

I get what you are saying. What I do is instead of getting a full fc group (which at the time we did do a lot especially t5 runs) I would just set up a PF and ask for training, killgroup or farm. Also mentioning and asking people to have knowledge up to certain phases might improve your chances of finding quality people fit for the task of hand. Teamspeak also really helps and if you really have no choice use DF cause up to t7 it's pretty easy. I have still problems with t8 myself cleared it once never again going back ;p

Being adaptable is key as well. Like don't main just one class but for example be a ranged dps or melee and be a healer on the side or tank. If you are having difficulties as a healer go dps instead. I know for a fact tanking t6 and t7 is sooooooo easy compared to dpsing it lol.

The issue with coil is you really need a pre-formed group to enter, and that really hard to find on most servers if you only get to play a few hours a day. I was very lucky to find a great group of people where I raid for 2 hours twice a week, prefect for me, and were currently on Turn 12, yeah, we might not get all of it done by heavensward, but as least I can I tried every turn and as of right now, I completed 2 of them too.

I love entering coil, but it should be with a group you know and it need to be chilled, I hate people that rage over low dps 'and your talking to a guy that rated pretty highly on the server I play on' just let people enjoy the game

That's awesome man! I'm in the same boat except havent tried t13 at all. I still need to farm t11 but them tethers are painful to deal with. they say t11 is easier than t10 but for me it feels the opposite. I did farm t11 with people I found through pf with their own ts amazing group but I didnt get a single piece of loot. Then I will start working on t12. Made it halfway before and that's not even the real fight.

What's your goal first completing all coils then farming or the opposite? My goal is to farm t11 till I have all the loot for my 2 mains at least whm and blm and then maybe pld stuff and then I would move on to clearing t12 etc.

Thing is I don't do well as a healer or tank I never have been probably never will be until heavensward, I have tried making a PF group but it never fills up (waited around a hour but nothing :/), and I play on my PS4 my pc is in another room so I can't really use TS or anything like that during a raid.

I adapt well but when no one explains what you do wrong its hard to fix the mistake xD

I'd like to try Turn 1 with FC group (along with Kelly, Al, and few others) before expansion comes out at least. It's just hard to find the time to get everyone together at the same time. Finally just finished story mode today so I'm hoping to get some of the end-game content cleared.

 

[Bambi]

we can easily burn through turns 1 to 4 even if not eveyone has done them, Id say.

I cleared t9 the other day, but ive not done 6 7 or 8 yet lol

it was.....hard i was about ready for rage quitting but we got out clear so all was good lol
