People are full Mythology geared and haven't been into coil

Honestly, you start gaining tomes before you even have a chance to enter the coils. If you are someone who does your dailies then it is more than likely possible for this to happen.

I don't even know how to access the coils yet and I almost have enough tomes for my first myth piece.

I am nearly full Myth and have been in coil for over 3 months. Are you going to get mad at me for having bad luck?

Assuming items would drop, I'd be wearing allagan. Point is, they don't. Two and a half months of Coil and I haven't seen caster robe or pants drop, not even once. And even if I got the robe but not the pants, I wouldn't be able to wear it in Coil because I need the damn accuracy from AF2.

I love when people complain about players asking for experience, which shuts them out because they don't have any. Reminds me of people who complain about employers only wanting people with job experience who aren't willing to go do volunteer work for experience...

This is a terrible analogy because most people can't simply volunteer instead of work. They need to work in order to not starve to death or be homeless. You don't need to get Allagan gear in order to play FFXIV, and you can do other things instead of Coil (gearing up in CT while you accumulate myth tomes is the obvious thing to do). So no, they aren't similar at all.

Same here. I think 3 months in coil...no caster armor AT ALL! Yes, I received 3 pieces of jewelry...but not one piece of armor has dropped.

Or they could be like me, playing every week and not getting loot. This monday I got head. First drop I have ever gotten from that place.

If they have full Myth and then start doing coil. It's a problem. If they have full myth despite running coil, then they're just unlucky. That's when it's important to make the distinction in Party Finder that you want geared AND experienced players. That being said, quite often I'll bring along 1/8 inexperienced players as long as they're geared and I know the other 7 are solid.

How is that a problem?

Pre 2.1, have full I90 was an achievement. It was something I was proud of and it showed my weekly progression through coil to obtain all my BiS allagan gear. Post 2.1, everyone and their friends have "I90 average". This number now means little to nothing. It all comes down to how many BIS pieces you have and how good of a player you actually are. Gear level avg can no longer reliably be used as an indicator of progression unless you closely examine them

[Deifact]

I've not been because everyone wants experienced players. This game will crash and burn by the hands of players who rushed content and have no patience/compassion to help noobs.

I did coil when I was in full darklight and no myth, did it for a couple of weeks got turn 1 down, but grew very tired and bored of the game. Coil was very boring to me.. VERY boring .

So now I'm gearing myself up in myth gear, almost finished and have been going in as an alt with my fc, still haven't personally gotten turn 2 down, but I understand the mechanics with rot so that I don't need anyone explaining to me what to do, just put the number over my head and I know where to go and what to do.
