Turn 2, Turn 4, turbo myth farming

Why turns 2 and 4? PUGs use enrage for T2 which makes the turn take about 20 minutes. At least half of PUGs can't beat T4, when T4 goes into duty finder there will be worse players too. I see turn 3's only use as turbo myth farming when 2.2 hits unless they nerf it to 20 myth or something.

I've always used Coil to farm Myth since It doesn't drop me anything anyways lol. :(

Turn 3 doesn't even give mythology tomes.

Turn 4 is actually pretty fun, though, I wouldn't mind running it for mythology. Though in terms of time taken, Haukke Manor HM is pretty quick in the right groups, and it gives philo and myth.

I suppose the big question will become will the new tomes drop from old coil? If so, then yeah, I will probably be all about turn 4.



Coil turns 1, 2, 4 and 5 all give the same amount as Pharos Sirius and the new Hard modes. I don't see why they'd need to lower them.

I think he means cause T2 especially is super duper easy and takes like 10 minutes to complete without even trying.

So why does Crystal Tower have a lockout? It's not "Top Tier Content". So they "Gate" all content, If anything Crystal Tower Lockout out will be removed. But I doubt they will fully remove a total lockout on Coils and Myth Cap.

Pugs at least on Balmung not have any problems on T4 (last weeks every pug i joined got beat it nearly 2~3 attempts max) Also T1-5 will get some sort of nerf so i think T4 will became gold mine XD for mytho farm + free gear. Also ppl's will hunt other pieces on other T ofc.

probably been said before didnt read all but when they nerf content they also drop rewards.. look at AK for an example

Thank you for letting me know that. I'm obviously not very observant on the Turn 3's myth reward and have only done T3 a couple times anyway.

Consider yourself lucky or on a good server. I'm about 3 for 8 on T4 with PUGs and I beat it 2nd attempt when I was iLvL 76 and new. I'm now iLvL 86 and have done about every variation you can do on T4 with the exception of all ranged (2 caster 2 bard). So the issue isn't me and I've seen other players repeatedly try T4 parties in party finder. T4 duty finder groups will only be worse even if they have better gear and unlimited tries. Anyway, I think T2 is too long to be farm worthy and T4 will be too difficult with randoms in duty finder to farm as well.

I doubt they'll be nerfing the existing i90 rewards, but they're "nerfing" i90 across the board by making it no longer the top tier of gear. I suspect what we're going to see will be something like crystal tower either gets upgraded drops with the same lockout (unlikely) or has the weekly loot lockout removed (more likely), halatali HM, Brayflox HM and Amdapor having an increasing difficulty scale that sidesteps existing gearing somewhat My guess is Halatali will be easiest, probably beatable in full i60 and drop i70 or i75 gear, then brayflox having an i80 weapon/Jewelry set and Amdapor having its own full set of i90 gear to help people get ready to start coil2. That way if CT has the loot lockout removed people will be able to spam CT and Brayflox to get full i80 while earning uncapped myth tomes to fill in with i90, get some i90 out of either the new amdapor or spamming original coil, then be geared enough to start attempting coil2 once they've cleared all 5 turns.

cos Pharos takes like 30-40min whereas T2,4 takes like 10 minutes
