GoodBye... Coil turn 3

You'll be forgotten forever and beyond
:(


I never had chance to see it because most of the groups disband after 2 ... and Duty finder as 4

Yep.... it was fun to go everyone as tank and "YOLO!!!!" *start running*. T3 was almost useless before 2.2 patch, but now...

They could remove the instance to reduce stress from servers.

Oh, wait, nobody does T3 (just to get the achievement), there is no stress there :p

I think T3 could be useful to spiritbound faster now.

Start a PF spiritbond party and run T3...

maybe it will be used for lvling, once the lvl cap will be raised

lol thinking back our static had the most fun in T3 more wipes there than every other turn combined from us fooling around.

Just make your own PF turn 3 party for map completion, SB, or just sightseeing.

I could have sworn that T3 does not count for the achievement.

T4 doesn't count for the achievement, being a single round room.

Do you still need to do it once before you can do turn 4?

Just curious. I imagine if you do, someone will probably be unhappy and SE will change it so you don't have to do turn 3.... for any reason. :P

They did take the ADS trash mob out of turn 1 so more people would be able to farm it.... That silly trash gave more people trouble than the actual boss sadly.

SB still works great there and it's very low stress.

I'm pretty sure he was referring to the tank mounts achievement. There are a number of people who believe they can get it via T3, so they make 8 tank parties and continually run that for the tank mounts.

But you do get a mapping achievement for running T3 through to the end once, so there's that...

I just started doing coil myself with my FC in a static group and we did 1, 2 and skipped right to 4. That was my first time doing any coil so 3 is not required. I'd like to do it for giggles though.

I've also not done 3 yet, but I really want to do it before starting 4 on my BLM as I don't like to skip story

Sometimes when you get into T1, the shortcut is already up instead of having to kill ADS.

Turn 3, by far my favorite turn. You can kill everything on the way down, OR, have a mad dash to the exit, racing everybody else to see who can make it first, all while the mobs are chasing you and try to kill you. Beware the midair obliterate, NOBODY expects it.

Is that random ?
Because a couple of times shortcuts been up, rest of times not?

I've run multiple turn 1's since the patch. I've never seen the shortcut up at all. ADS had to die each time.

I've had it twice already though, ADS gone and shortcut up, in fresh group

I have a theory, but haven't been able to test it yet. I think it may have something to do with CS skipping and timing. Most likely a bug/exploit, if I can reproduce it, I plan on reporting it.

how bout adding some loot to it ? that would be even better imo

T3 has a lot of fond FC memories.

My first one- I didn't know what it was. Everyone was going as tank so I was kind of thinking 'This is weird.." and everyone was vague on what to do. We go in and they say to run. So we run.. like idiots. Freaking out every time the huge mobs aggro on us.

Then we all wipe because no one wanted to press the button. Lol

You can always do an event to the finish with your static with level 1 gear for kicks and giggles :P

This happened to me today... I noticed afterwards I had my AFK flag up. I'll stick a bug report in as soon as I get the chance (it's a pain to do on a phone!!).

T1 having to do ADS is maybe due to someones 1st time. At least that makes sense to me, that way they get the same experience that every one else had their 1st time :3
*should go and test this with a pre-made of all people who have done it, then do it again with a new player!*
