Umm, just ignore them? If they are calling you "elitist" or other nasty things, why even pay attention to those people? These folks go on my blacklist and I don't deal with them anymore - problem solved.

And now you just went completely off topic. It's not that I care if I am branded "elitist", it's putting in content into the game and expectations that aren't needed.

Yeah, I am gonna cringe at the wave of complaints of people not being able to clear T6 let alone T5. The mechanics are way tougher and involve watching yourself and surroundings a lot more than T5 does. T7 even more so. No damage boost is going to help them, heck if anything it makes it more difficult because you then need to stop DPS and do phase changes at correct times.

Also, whats the point of a "practice mode"? Isn't that just making a redundant version of T5? Why can't you just practice on the current T5?

Not needed in the sense that is the investment worthwhile? They could spend money on manpower to implement this but how much money would this really make for them? The only people that want an easier coil are people already playing, it's not going to bring in new players by saying "Hey, look! We made our game super easy!". What will it do for retention? Well, there's been a lot of people complaining about almost anything. Why give this priority when there are other features, like hunts, that could give better retention?

That sort of need is what I mean.

Solution:

1. Look up a Twintania kill video on youtube from your favorite Job's perspective with cutscenes. Open it up to full screen.

2. Pick up a controller or mouse and keyboard that aren't plugged in, and pretend you are playing while the fight plays. If you mess up, don't worry - a little robot that lives in your computer will take over your character and preform the mechanic correctly.

3. Easy mode coil complete!!!

4. Do the Superbowl Shuffle.

I don't like these apps, I haven't used one and will never use one. I did manage to beat T5 the day before the echo was implemented.

What does this app do? We've cleared T5 w/o apps since all you have to do is look at markers/cast bars. I myself always do callouts in mumble tho (be it T5, T6, or T7).

If you've played WoW, it's like Deadlybossmods.

I've watched streams of people using it and it's super annoying. It's like a robotic woman's voice calling out when the next major skill is coming up.

It basically calls out the ability the boss uses in a mechanical voice, and you can configure it such that any ability that has a cast bar can be called out by Siri Ver 2. It works for Scob as well, Blight, voice, shriek, AF etc etc can all be set up. A vocal DBM, if you will.

These apps are parsers, data gatherers. You can input some text for it to look out for. For example, you can set it to look out for "Magis suffers the effect of X." and once the parsers reads that from the chat log, the app will notify you with either text to speech or some alert.
