I want 2.2 to be a "reset" for players in full i90 gear. Make Turn 6 a distant goal.

With this Mindset nothing in this Game should be worth buying with Gil? Because People are buying gil from RMTs? Seems legit... not

Whether it seems legit to you or not, that is the reasoning behind their decision. They don't want end-game equipment craftable to prevent RMT selling the item to generate gil or players going to buy gil to afford the item.

Turn 6 won't be a "distant goal", as all you need to do is beat Turns 1-5. BCoB is being added to the Duty Finder, and is simultaneously being nerfed as well for Version 2.2.

Q17: How difficult will the new turns of the Binding Coil of Bahamut be?

A17: The Binding Coil of Bahamut: Invasion (name TBD) will have a different item level than the current Binding Coil of Bahamut, so it’s a bit difficult to explain, but try to recall taking on the current Binding Coil of Bahamut without knowing anything at all.

He also mentioned that it would be like when 2.0 was released and people had no idea how to beat the current turns. Considering coil took quite a while to clear, i expect the new turns to be pretty difficult too and seeing as you need to have beaten t5 to enter, i assume they designed it to be difficult for people who are ilvl90.

They said new craftable armor will be ilvl 100, and I missed the portion, but FC member said they stated New turns will drop ilvl 120. They also said they are taking the week lockout off the first 5 turns, so everyone will be able to spam it to get full i90 quickly to take on the new turns.

As for the nerfing, all Ive seen was them saying they are going to add the Echo buff to it, which increases your HP and strength a bit if you fail multiple times, so groups who already one shot, will continue to, and those who wipe repeatedly will get a small buff to help out.

umm I'm quite sure they refused to mention any solid ilvl numbers, unless they did in the second half and I missed it.

Yes, and what they are doing is completely killing off a part of the game for the sake of preserving those ideas. If they wanted generic dungeon crawler 3000 they certainly are approaching it and I wouldn't expect the community as it is to survive.

This is the point of all us posting on the forum.

Yoshida's core design has all but made crafting and gathering worthless and killed off all aspects of the economy. HE is so worried about RMT he killed off the economy himself.

What he is doing is just not working. RMT are still here and spamming us like crazy, but yet everything on the market that is gatherable sells for less the 100gil.

Hey, don't shoot the messenger. That's just their stand on it. Either way it does little to help crafting in the economy if everyone can craft the same items. There's no limitations to gathering and crafting, and eventually no one will need outside support except for mats.

Doc: 'You see Marty, our ilvl 90 weapons are obsolete in this reality and using them might create a rift in the space time continuem.'
Marty: 'Oh man this is heavy.'
Doc: 'We have to obtain ilvl 125 to generate the 1.1 gigawats of power so we can go back to
1955! and also... so we can look cool compared to everyone else'
Marty: 'You mean 1989?'
Doc: 'Whatever, we have a fkn time machine Marty.'
