Congrats on the win! I have a question about this screenshot though if you don't mind. Was this taken quite a bit after the victory or is food buff actually optional in this dungeon? :D

Stage 5? Do you mean turn 5?

I've only played BLM on Turn 4 so far, it seems 445 on Turn 4 is sufficient but not sure about Caduceus etc.

For Coil, should I +1 for relic or buying ilvl90 gears?

^Same question here

Math it out yourself by calculating your DPS gain per mythology using the tools available at: http://valk.dancing-mad.com/

Well, it turned out that getting my relic to +1 is better than getting two ilvl 90 items or ilvl 90 chest\legs

Tomorrow is Monday ! Tomorrow is the DAY!

It works by making you hate your life, question your sexual orientation after getting nailed hard by it over and over again. Then makes you come back next week for more. That is how turn 5 works.

Whats a forbidden melding ? sorry for the slightly offtopic question

Melding more materia that your gear can recieve. But it can fail and the materia is then lost.

If only we could figure out whats up with that thing on the floor that Twintania drops at 80%. Got under 60% and parts broke off but nothing else on the floor.

Its peculiar.

What do we do with the thing on the floor?

ARGH

430 on BLM was decent for Cadeceus, think I missed maybe 2 or 3 spells over the course of 10 attempts. 445 sounds like a decent number to aim for.

Question about loot: no clue if someone can actually answer this since those inside are probably going for progress instead of farming but do drops actually differ per turn? (besides weapons likely dropping in the final turn) Or could one basicly spam turn 1 and get all allagan stuff?

Twintania Phase 3 reached, adds lots of adds and dive bombs...

Huh.. Spam ?
Once a week you know. If you kill boss 1 you cannot kill it again until the Monday reset.

Stuck on this bad boy as well.
Hard fight and unlike the other ones that came before, somewhat hard to figure out.
The mechanics even seem to bug for us at times.

What mechanics are bugging for you? Can't say we've had this happen.

Well, if a player with a red mark jumped into the conflagration, the mark would get cancelled - seems to be intended. But in some of our tries the player that jumped in didn't get killed even when the conflagration went off when we didn't manage to kill it in time.

And another: The conflagrated player actually has a debuff counting down until the conflagration will detonate. Sometimes it would just detonate even if the counter was still at ~5s. In cases where that happened we didn't change anything regarding our strategy / execution so that it might have just been a disregarded mechanic that caused a premature detonation.

Can't say that we have had those happen. Keep in mind, the debuff you see shows the maximum conflagration duration (the dot timer) -- NOT the current conflagration duration. How long it lasts is dependent on other factors.

Has anyone started a loot index for Bahamut's Coil? With new groups making their way in, it would be nice to keep track of what drops where.

Anyway, it's unfortunate that not only is it hard, but finding a team if you're a solo player is even harder.

Neither ADS develops immunity to silence.

Most of the items within this search is from Coil... http://xivdb.com/?search/Allagan

I'm kind of hoping they keep ADSs a running joke, having Bahamut die and then 3 ADSs at once turn out to be the real final boss of the game would be amazing.

I meant which boss/chest specifically. I see some of the item pages on xivdb have player notes, but I was wondering if there was a more complete list.

I believe we've seen the same loot drop on different floors. Apart from weapons which will likely be locked to floor 5, it could just be a big random pool!
note: shield doesn't count as a weapon, seen plenty of folks with this.

just watched the vid of the stage 4 boss encounter in the elevator... I wouldn't even know where to start with all that hate in the room. Thought the fight looked insane before two dreadnaughts turned up and then, with one left and the end in sight the damn arena starts pulsing death...

I'm going to have to start wearing my game hat as that looks amazing fun.

Even if he did, I'm sure you would get "disco-deathed" before that ever happened. Just make sure whoever are silencing have a decent amount of accuracy.

We've seen some multiples from the same floor as well Junpei!

Have seen the:
2xBRD Head from Turn 2
3xDRG Belt from Turn 1
2xMNK Boots from Turn 4

Its entirely possible that there's a certain pool that each floor takes from instead of a completely random pool of all allagan items (with some duplicating on floors). I can make a compiled list of everything we've found so far and what I can find from peoples posts or what people would like to add.

-edit- junpei u totally wrong all our doubles were same floor! Ill make a new thread for this.

Can anyone tell me what is written in the tooltipps of both allagan rot and allagan immunity? I want to think about how to counter that skill, before our next raid starts. Sure we could go there and take a screenshot but... well, lol. I don't want to know how to handle this debuff, want to figure this one out myself, i just want to know what the tooltip says.

Thanks^^

One says something about "You are now suffering under the effect of Allagan Rot" the other says something about "You are temporarily immune to the effects of Allagan Rot"

Them Fires on the tank!

In Binding Coil, what is the priority status for Monk ?

STR first? then follow with Skill speed > critical > determination?

I m making full darklight set for DPS Monk atm, but I m not even sure whether Monk should wear striking set or maiming set, or should I mix them for stat that is priority?
