So Second Coil has been destroyed

[Mutemutt]

Wow some of you are gonna be having a really bad time for probably the rest of this game's life then... Yoshi-P back in Beta and again after a few updates had already set up the precedents of nerfing outdated content when newer content pops up. This has been re-iterated so many times by him in the past. I don't see this changing any time soon unless they drastically change the way the game works (which may very well happen in 3.0, who knows but SE.) either way, this was no surprise at all.

Well, I didn't really expect such heavy nerfs to the mechanics of the fight, not right off the bat at least. I mean, t2 allagan rot still blows people to smithereens, right? Or maybe that was changed too (if it did, it definitely wasn't on the first nerf, I'm sure... I think)...

First coil turns outside t5 can be done with a blindfold and your hands tied up. For t2 specifically people just enrage and spam heal. Turn 5 itself, I don't know if it received any nerfs but IMO the hardest part is knowing how to use focus target.

Second coild will just be as farmable as first coil, probably a bit less.

While T9 got no nerfs I guess the extra DPS from echo will help to get to / past golems fast and ghosts will be a bit less of a threat, though I highly doubt a DF group will even get to Heavensfall.

Well yeah, but it wasn't a mechanic nerf; that was just people outgearing or maybe you could say just brute forcing it with extra heals (and echo later on, of course). There was only the paralysis change to lessen the need for a bard/monk silence as far as I remember.

Still, I could go back and handle the rot method if I wanted to.

I don't believe Allagan Rot was ever changed. That said show me turn 2 groups who still actually deal with Rot instead of going for the soft enrage method.
