It's about time to add Coil story mode, isn't it ?

There's on part in the recent live letter announcement that shows how important coil story is "Discover what has become of the harbinger of the Seventh Umbral Era in the Final Coil of Bahamut." This is the story of what happened to the destroyer of 1.0, how he went from all powerfull being ripping apart the surface of Eorzea to ending up underground. To me that's a very important part of the overall story. If the story was something like in Crystal Tower which feels like a sidestory, I would have no problem with it, but to me it feels like I'm being left out of the story because I don't raid.

As for people telling others to just watch it on youtube: then why play games at all when you can just watch everything on youtube. It's a stupid answer, people want to have a chance at clearing it themselves and experience the story with their own character.

Thats what I meant. The story in coil is pretty epic and integral to the narrative of "a realm reborn". In truth, its SE's fault for locking it behind end game raid content. But here we are. I worked extra hard to get 2nd coil cleared, but I'd hate for someone not to be able to experience this story organically in game because they can't join a static, or find 7 other competent players to get it cleared.


In the future, I'd like to see more raids that have side stories, a la CT, and not an important part of the main story. Also, future raids shouldn't be connected to each other, or require you to clear one to access the other. Of course.. thats a debate for a whole new thread...

See, he gets it. I like you. :3
I'd love to be in a Coil static. I used to be up to T4 and it was great. I just cannot commit to set times anymore.
