Also on a sidenote, a lot of your posts have a really rude tone to it.
You can just re-post it like any ol' person would.

Not every post I put up has to come across as polite, respectful and as uncondescending as possible. That's what makes me a human being.

If I find something stupid, intolerable or frankly downright idiotic then why censor myself for the sake of others, what would that achieve?

Whether or not you like what I have or others have to say is completely up to you and your own opinion to explore, discover and revel in.

inb4 "u have 2 be nice" No. No I don't.

I could, but I'm not going to, I've already posted it several times.

And yes, that was rude for the sake of rudeness. Sue me.

Because it's the forum rules lol. You can have an opinion without being a butt nugget, to put it lightly.
And hey if you get the ban hammer for what others think as rude [and trust me, anything goes on these forums, even the smallest things
and I am not saying your post was down right nasty...] then go for it lol. I'm not here to teach you to be polite on the net lol.

Actually, it doesn't state anywhere that I'm not allowed to be salty or passive aggressive towards others.

Blatant anger, profanity or defamation out of context might count.

But; "What are you nattering about?" isn't really going to make the 'ban/suspension' cut.

Then why bother mentioning it in the first place.

Yoshida would implement the Story Mode version for the entire coil some time

Q: With the Bahamut's coils completing in patch 2.4, do you have any plans for players who are only interested in seeing the storyline?

A: I have also been wondering what we can do. With respect to the difficulty, there will be some relaxation, but we also need to consider players who are starting new, so we haven't finalized any specifics yet. I would like it so that at some point everyone could experience the story.

20% Echo is enough, and if it's not the better gear in 2.4 will certainly make it so.

Thousands upon thousands have beat it? New gear and 20% buff will make it easier? Do you realise how dumb this post I am quoting sounds? If thousands upon thousands ha e beaten it this thread would not have been made

The figure of people defeating Second Coil is around 2000. So thousands upon thousands defeating Binding Coil would make sense. It means you have no idea what you're talking about if what you quoted sounds dumb.

And heal through it. The snakes can be killed 1 at a time now. And btw stun, miasma, blizzard, stone you shouldn't be dieing to the birds. We had several ppl get hit by everything, and no one got 1 shotted.

I somehow doubt that several people got hit by everything (Twisters too? Really?) and didn't get one-shooted.

Yes, it's easy when you know what to do and you don't lag. But not everyone has the same level of skill, be it for whatever reasons, and I think that these people deserve to, "at least", be able to see T1-5's story after a year of their release. It won't hurt me, I don't know why does it seem that it hurts some of you. It won't require that much resources to simply dumb down OHKO mechanics to do way less damage (as to not kill you) or to have longer CDs, and reduce monsters' stats to get equivalent (scalated for an 8-man) to those of the ones in the normal dungeons. Specially when compared with making it harder, that requires a lot more tweaking to prevent it from being impossible while still being harder than the normal one.

...wouldn't that just be "thousand upon thousand?" "Thousands" implies more than one. And if we put one thousand on one thousand, then that just makes two thousand.

What they mean is 2000+ have beaten SCoB.

The number of people who've beaten BCoB is substantially higher than that.

Considering the development of the game is split quite strongly between casual/hardcore content (intentionally so), your point doesn't make that much sense.

You have the right to ask for it, but regardless of whether you pay for it or not, if you can't actually complete the content due to your own time/ability/varying restrictions that's not their problem.

They've stated they're adding in a way to clear it with fewer people in the future, you'll simply have to wait till then or try harder.

*There is no proof to suggest that this claim is true or false, and is baseless conjecture without solid fact proving one way or another, silly point to make.

These things take time, and time is precious on a three-month development cycle trying to pump out new content of a certain quality.
It's not just as easy as "Let's remove twisters and lower the HP", it takes a lot more planning, adjustments, testing and final implementations to procure a version of the fights like this and that would consume A LOT of time.

But as I've already said, they're adding it, you're flapping your arms in their air as if they're not going to add it when they are;

I don't have my hopes up. I beat T1-5 a bunch of times. Call people lazy if you want but you really don't know anything about the other people who can't do it. Best not to act like you do.

It's not the point really, my point is that I dont care it they don't got time or can't form a static or whatever. The story is there, it's the hardest content in the game and it is the only way to see those major story parts. A lot can't enjoy it because of their reasons.

Not trolling.
The Truth.

You speak such words of wisdom.

I don't like the "gimmie gimmie" gamers.
T9's a bitch. A challenge. A long term goal with 7 of my friends.
I wouldn't want it any other way.

T5 is little more than a speed bump in its current state.
Just has 2 mechanics that require minimal coordination.
That aside. It's a cakewalk.

Please. Just practice. And find a static.
That's what makes this game awesome.
