Adamantoise Progression Thread

New Progression Thread

http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...ression-Thread

Awesome awesome. Happy to see you take over the thread.

Since Dimach is no longer with us and can't update the original thread. I am taking it upon myself to keep the progression thread up to date. Please begin using this one from here on out.

I will as well be looking to clean up and shorten the list by 2.2. i will be purging all inactive guilds as well as Resetting the list to focus on Coil 6-9 as 1-4 will no longer warrant being counted as progression.

Balamb Academy <<SeeD>> T5 downed 1/23/14 @ 11 40pm est, all EX primals Cleared

gj Tiv, glad to see someone picked this up where dim left off.


Edit: Oh, and uh.. I didn't realize this hasn't been recorded. Bravers been farming EX's for weeks lol

Belated Grats then SeeD.

White ~ other than primals can you confirm what all you guys have done? I want to make sure it is accurate when I post it.

Thanks for Taking over the Thread Tivia.

Thanks for taking it over ^^ Dimach asked me and I respectfully declined. Best of luck to everyone when 2.2 comes out.

As a note:

In an effort to continue cleaning and organizing the list, I would like to purge guilds from the list that have not accomplished a Minimum of Coil 1-4 or at least 1 Extreme mode. Normal and Hard modes are fully pugged at this point and I frankly do not consider them progression. Likewise coil 1-4 can be easily pugged. I basically want to eliminate the guilds that are essentially inactive that I have no other means of confirming and keep this list about "Progression". My proposal is as follows; I would be changing the normal/hard/extreme to be more indicative of what was actually done focusing more on current progression. Here is a small sample of what the new format would look like. I will leave this as a proposal until Friday March 7. If I get no feedback against it, I will move forward with updating the original post. The goal of this is aimed at prepping for 2.2 and the next tier of progression. I don't want to maintain a list of extremely old content as it just makes it messy to keep up with and read. As such once 2.2 goes live, coil 1-4 will be removed entirely off the list and Twintania will only be maintained so long as it remains a gateway into coil 6-9. I will treat the primals the same going forward where the most difficult versions will be maintained, while older trivial content will be removed.

Edit - Code moved to original post.

I would make a suggestion regarding verification: don't use screenshots without UI elements. Cinematic images are pretty and all, but there needs to be a timestamp of some sort if there is going to be any legitimate progression tracking. Since I'm not aware of the date being shown anywhere in the UI, the date of post should be considered as the date of clear. Groups that aren't motivated enough to post for a month after a clear are, quite frankly, not in it for the progression competition (such as it is).

11th clear of turn 5 as a raidgroup, 1st clear as our own fc. -Zodiac Braves- <Brave> (not to be confused with "Zodiac Braves" under the same tag) Looks forward to seeing everyone in the waiting rooms of turns 6-9. :)
All extremes downed, but too lazy to post another ss.
Cheers to Cast Time for filling a spot in our group recently.

somewhere in our server a bard rage quits

Grats Dodge!

Update ~

Since no one responded negatively (I didn't expect anyone would), I have updated the progression code with my proposed cleanup. You will note that 3 guilds have twin kills but nothing else, which is because I don't have anything confirmed for them. So if people could get in touch with these groups and get them to confirm their progression that would be great. At present the "Hard" icon is unused in the new code as there are no "hard modes" that are progression worthy. I may change it to reflect something else at some point if no hard modes present as progression, that remains an unknown. For now though I have updated the list to be far more clear on what things mean. For example "last kill date" was changed to First kill date to be more clear. Also as a note, if you were a group previously killing twin under another FC and reformed, your kill date will be reflected as the date you first killed it under the new tag. Also in the future try to let me know if you were the only group inside a FC killing progression and left as I don't want to have guilds in that list that aren't capable of the achievement.

We need more allagan bottle openers (axe).

A bump since this thread has been lost to the second page.

Antithesis, a new kin to Adamantoise (and FFXIV), has completed Turn 5 (as well as all Extremes, but no snapshots there).

Tivia,

Could you include this link in your original post: http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...ression-Thread

I am trying to get a world progression thread started for top guilds from every server and to get a better idea for world firsts. I figured if it is included in server progression threads it can raise awareness and provide a place for a quick link to it. Thanks

Nice to see someone putting the effort into a world progression tracker.

Grats Antithesis.

World thread added

Hey, GoWar has downed all of the primal extreme modes, fyi :)

Thanks Coffee, updated.

he also got ring 2 weeks ago, but he's having hard time getting feet from turn 4 so gg :/

<SWAT> Super Whoop Ass Team isn't on this list.
Our current progression is Turns 1-4 down, as well as all EX Primals. (As well as Moogle and Ultima, but that should be obvious)

Hi Tivia,

I'm fairly new to the forums and just discovered this thread. My FC, Scarlet Regalia, cleared Turn 4 on 2/26/14. Aside from that we've done Ultima EX and Garuda EX. Here is a screenshot of us standing at the start of Turn 5 right after our T4 clear.

Thanks!

Updated the list, thanks guys.

Don't forget GIRUGAMESH SERVER FIRST!

Linkshell "Seed coil3" made the decision, having only been to twisters 3-4 times that we were gonna down twintania before the nerfs. We walked in last night, we learned through two new phases, we went 7 hours straight into the early hours of the morning. 3 hours before the patch hits.

P.S. I Don't even know if this really belongs here. SeeD's already registered twin kills. However this group isn't completely comprised of SeeD members and I thought the dedication this group had to downing this before the patch deserved a congrats. so CONGRATS!

Congrats on the well earned kill. But yes SeeD is already on the list and the list is just comprised of FC's. If I tried to list every linkshell/multi group that would just be a nightmare to keep up with. A good example would be my guild. We have had 6 groups internally down twin and due to various circumstances those groups have been part of half a dozen other groups killing it. So that could be 6+ additional kills alone just from my group and I know many others are like that.

Please Read the note at the top of the thread regarding progression. Please continue to post Turn 5/Extreme primals (G, T, I) here, but understand I will not be updating the list with those kills for a period of 1 week to judge the strength of the Echo buff. Please bear in mind I want you to continue posting your kills on turn 5. Even if it is trivial to a degree, we still want to recognize up and coming talent for the accomplishment. So as of 4-3-2014 I will assess the number of kills that happened and if turn 5 has been trivialized to the point of no longer justifying it as official progression or not.

Namasu means the Gilgamesh fight being implemented with the Hildebrand questline :P

Also it looks like Scarlet Regalia was saying they beat Turn 4 and entered turn 5 but they didn't beat it, unless I'm mistaken.

He totally means GIRUGAMESH ^_^

Awesome! Like the new rules and format. Looking forward to some progression in 2.2!

From everyone in Absolution, Good luck Adamantoise!

The Main Banana, Avix Sunpuncher

Turn 6 is no joke. ffxiv FC went hard at it for about 4 hours just now. Excellent fight tho, very fun and challenging. Best of luck to everyone when people start waking up !
