Dear SE, Yoshi, etc, remove Coil lock outs. Right now.

[Cidel]

Because SE has already answered it. As far as they are concerned, it is a case closed topic. Any complaints from here are just complaining for the sake of complaining.

Do you mind linking or telling me where they answered this particular issue? I honestly don't remember when/where they specifically "closed" the issue.


That aside, I'm glad to see that more people are also recognizing that this 8-man, single success lock-out on the latest content with the most sought-after gear is basically poison for Free Companies while encouraging cliquing. Even outside of the FC and within a static of 8 people, just one person going off and clearing a Turn on their own time that the group was working on clearing totally disrupts the rest of the group, assuming they can't find a replacement to fill that slot. Would be nice if they could still go back and run the Turn again with their static, maybe with some info like "this is what that group did differently that worked better."

It's tough though to just simply make it a "1 loot per Turn" solution rather than a "1 successful clear per week," (like I'm seeing being requested here and there) now that they have implemented sands, oils and the unidentified tomestone as 100% drops upon wins. Unless they decide to change it to something more along the lines of "only able to roll on items on 1st clear of the week;" that still allows for players to be able to go back and be available for other groups without anyone abusing the loot system to constantly run the same Turn over and over until everyone either gets an oil, sand, etc. or until the gear they need finally appears. The " RNG wall" is still there to prevent most people from getting everything they want in a few weeks, but the option is also there to go back to help FC/LS members.

Locking the ability to roll on loot to a user-account's first clear of the week, while offering unlimited access throughout the week is a viable solution.

Like this, basically.
