Why I have no interest in Coils more specifically, T9.

I absolutely agree with the OP. It's all about learning, learning, learning - and then hoping that your comrades learn as well and don't keep messing up, over, and over, and over. Skill is barely required. Memorization and competent teammates are what matters.



Show me where the game mentions or even hints at the fact that the T9 meteors can't be close together or they'll explode and wipe the party.

I'm curious as to your definition of skill. It seems maybe you are confusing it with talent.

Do you honestly believe a major league slugger was just born like that? Or does the hours upon days of learning from failure (striking out) impact his play?

Success is when the product of your skill and talent exceed a threshold defined by the task. You need both. Skill as a word is closer to experience.

Sorry to target you and I mean no offense by it, but even in single players games, they do not give you all the details on a boss. Maybe a hint or two, but nothing that is gonna save you.
Do you expect Nael to say, " HAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Once those meteors get too close, ITS ALL OVER!" No its a fight, why would she give a warning of a deadly side effect from one of her moves.

IMO it does not take skill to see a marker over your head and run to point B o.O it takes at best using these amazing things called eyes :O and maybe this thing called a brain ;>_>

Obviously, playing a song with a guitar perfectly isn't skillful because it's all memorization and practice. You can only be considered skilled with a guitar if you're playing with a guitar that has strings that magically switches around with each other at random intervals and you somehow still manage to play the song!

Does anyone else notice how its usually people who haven't cleared the content saying that end game content isn't challenging?

That was pretty funny but no they also have to be made out of razor wire or something sharp

Yea, and also I haven't seen many people who cleared T9, T13, Savage braging about how easy and unchallenging it was. Weird.

That's usually how it goes. Check out the people who complain about WoW being "too easy." No mythic kills (think Savage), usually not even heroic kills (normal). They do LFR (Crystal Tower) and then complain about how the game is too easy.

Meh imo i kinda agree with op about it being more of a test etc BUT in a sense its rather more of a DDR game.
Ppl can still good by "reacting" to the "incoming" arrows and try their best to follow up without making " too many mistakes" that will eventually make them lose.
But ppl like me who don't have much practice pretty much will trip up on the 1st "set of patterns".
Whether its due to our slow reaction speed, nervousness or just plain no understand. Its just not for us.
I'm fine with that and will try again every now and then but hey its " not for everyone " just like how A LOT of ppl don't do sightseeing logs/ gave up or have 60+ TT cards.

This isn't the game you're looking for.
