Why aren't the Coil instances more 'continuous' like Crystal Tower?

I think it would cause issue with lockouts...at least how they do them anyways

At the same time that would encourage structured raiding guilds to do their thing.

Of course, with the way duties were designed this isn't really possible, which is a shame. You can't be "saved" to an instance for the week like you would be in WoW, with a raid ID assigned to anyone that was "saved" in the instance with you.

Lobby rooms are checkpoints so you can get out, fix stuff, change jobs, go spank that S mark that just poped. Etc.

Coil is much more team oriented, CT is just a Duty Finder thing.

Does not undo the fact that the ambience of CT and ST feels more like a raid to those of us who have played and raided other MMOs.

Actually you can, clear trash and leave the turn, then come back another day and the trash will still be clear, Look at how peeps asked for some to take them into coil turn 1 past ADS and trash, so instance ID progression saving is possible.

Just working on progression proves that, spend time working on a boss, stop, have another crack another day (before reset of course) trash is clear, shortcut is open.

If you had only 120 minutes to learn all turns from scratch, could you do it?　If you ran out of time you had to start from the beginning?

All stuff you clear upto that would still be clear when you re-enter the next time (before reset).
