Fan Census: This is embarrassing

[Skeith-Adeline]

I've a question:

Why gear if you aren't going to attempt to fight the fights said gear is meant for?

I don't understand individuals with Zeta weapons (often times numerous), full Ironworks, numerous 50 classes and yet, still need a T5 clear lol

Why level up to max in an offline FF when you can often clear the game at low or even starting levels?

Some people like seeing how strong they can get, even if they don't need to be.

Also, regarding T5/9/whatever, these fights have elements of challenge that no amount of gear will make up for, considering their reliance on instadeath mechanics.

If they gave me enough incentive to play Coil (as a whole) I might bother. I don't really crave more arena fights in a meh-looking environment (what ever happened to dungeon exploration and the thrill of it?) for gear that's arguably useful only for doing more Coil. Lockouts don't help either as, when Coil(s) got released they're on lockout > cba to drama through with statics and leaving friends behind > by the time the lock is lifted I give zero effs about it. Guess I'll continue to contribute to the low stats of my server and enjoy other activities (no sarcasm there, I really do enjoy most of the other activities on offer).

Doing other battle content easier/faster, playing dress-up, because it's possible without too much hassle (aka people's tempers and egos) and so on, new story quests in each patch bumped the required ilvl up usually by 10 and so on and so forth.... plenty of reasons besides Coil.

Dammit I accidentally copied over what I had to cut and paste from my notepad. Now I'm too lazy to rewrite it. Nevermind.

Why ask why? Why do you need to understand someone else's motives in their gearing selection playing the game?
You ask "why gear up " simple answer, because we can.

Try playing Touhou or any other bullet hell games vs a japanese player, then come back to tell me how japanese will perform worse when it comes to individual content.

Try playing Touhou

And don't forget Tewi and Reisen's words of wisdom

While I don't condone abusive behavior, everyone pulling their own weight in a team effort isn't an unreasonable expectation regardless of whether it's FCOB or a lvl 10 Guildhest.

I wouldn't let the possibility of encountering bad attitudes stop you from experiencing Coil. Besides T1-T4 are quite casual to start with. Hell, I remember DFing them when I was a new player around i80, and it's only gotten easier.
