Coils are not hard when you go in with ilvl 180 gear. <3

I don't know about that, i did crystal tower when if first came out and the highest ilvl pieces available were i90. At the time the hardest part of LoTA was pulling people away from Netflix long enough to stand on a platform for 20 seconds or stand behind a rock for 5.

I'm very surprised to hear Alex NM will be harder than current EX's. My impression is they were going to be Coil nerfed+Echo difficulty.

And if alexander normal is going to be harder than ex primals there still won't be that many who will see the story. I dont think SE understood what it was people wanted. Maybe in 6 months after ilvl increases some more and echo is added. Most players just want an easy mode that is basically on par with the crystal tower raids. Don't want the best gear from easy mode just want to experience it.

Which depending on the Turn you were doing was still harder then the EX Primals back then as well. So it makes sense that Alex NM would be harder then the EX on atleast one turn (if they are doing Turns again atleast)
