Where do people keep coming up with this idea that Crystal Tower is supposed to be easier than Coil of Bahamut? It makes no sense that a future 24 man raid would be easier than a current 8 man one.

If CT truly is a tier below coil(meaning CT would be ilvl 80) then why is it that groups are fully capable of getting bosses down in coil currently when the majority go in with nothing more than darklight? You get ilvl 90 gear in coil and through myth tomes if that's not enough to clear coil then how is ilvl 80 CT gear going to change anything?
Yes square has said before CT is a tier below coil.....but the fact that a good amount of coil can even be cleared without said gear leads me to believe they need to go back to the drawing board on CT if they want it to be harder and yet only drop ilvl 80. If they haven't already they honestly have no other choice than to make CT ilvl 100 because who is going to run CT out of the people currently doing coil? Story is good and all but the core raiding feature in mmos is the gear grind, no one will want to run CT if they are able to get higher ilvl gear from a lesser raid that doesn't even require CT gear to begin with.
crystal tower drops lvl 80 gear..... it fills that HUGE gap from ilvl 70 to ilvl 90
people are able to do this content in BCoil now because they're pushing their gear and skill to the absolute limit and skipping the need to even set foot in the next stage in content
as for the top 1%, we will more than likely be avg ilvl 85+ with BCoil cleared before 2.1 even launches
