Binding Coil of Bahamut Discussion

Quick question. I'm assuming there is some sort of time lockout?

I'm assuming you can't just farm turn 1 for gear etc if you get stuck on turn 2.

So if there is a lockout, how long is it/when does it reset.

I have got to hand it to SE. I was skeptical and worried going into the 50 content, but so I have been blown away by how good it is. They obviously really put care into the encounters, and they are really fun too. Excited to see what they throw at us next!

So far through the Binding Coil already. That's some skill. I've been working towards relic, but I have yet to be able to clear Garuda Hard Mode. Most of my FC isn't up to GHM yet, so being able to get further towards entering BCOB seems a bit far off. Hopefully I'll clear Garuda sometime tomorrow to get one step closer :)

Is progress of individual turns reset each week or the entire raid as a whole?

The entire zone is reset, so all 5 turns are reset and you have to clear from turn 1 again.

Even though its split into 5 turns its basically just 1 big instance.

Awesome progress guys. Gets me really excited for later on with my group. Best of luck and please keep updating!

Question about "gear check".

1. I think that coil of Bahamut require everybody to have full DL set and relic first?
2. Do you think HM primals require full DL gear for tank or not? It seem to be a big different in tank with DL and without somehow as a healer, especially WAR.

1. Speaking only to Turn 1 here. Relic weapons help immensely, especially on your damage dealers in the Coil. You probably want to have a good chunk of Darklight at this point, especially on your tank, but it is not mandatory. The green gear from Amdapor Keep is solid too.

2. Primals definitely do not require full Darklight. We had some issues with damage dealers in full AF gear surviving aoe damage, but with just a few upgrades from Amdapor and Darklight you should be fine to go.
