also finding people to clear final coil at 50 after HW? very likely not gonna happen anymore except if its all friends/fc members. best method is to buy HW level to 60 get better gear WITHOUT any lockouts (i180) and just unsync run it. way easier and way more likely to work imo.

Actually, it's really not that much easier to run Final Coil unsynced, and in some ways it's harder because you have to be VERY cautious with your DPS in T13 or you can push Bahamut in extremely awkward ways. The mechanics will still wreck you, even unsynced.

My FC is very helpful but the least I an do is be as powerful as I can be.

I guess in the meantime if anyone is still doing hunts on Moogle, hit me up.

They should loosen up the requirements and let these be more easily accessible to those that need them. I ran the weekly CT quest to get the tomestone to get my Ironworks Dark Knight Weapon to tide me over a while and it was like going through the pains of hell to beat all three of those. I had to FATE Grind while I waited roughly 3 hours for each one to que and then once inside it was a nightmare...Labrynth was actually the best group of folks out of all three runs...wow...still bad times in there, can't believe it.

They're probably not going to touch any of this since the rewards become obsolete by your mid-50s. There's no reason to care about any of these items unless for glamour purposes.

Continuing to play FFXIV after lvl 50 doesn't make a great deal of sense without HW (i.e. I'd get the expansion if I intended to keep playing since progression comes to a screeching halt otherwise), and as others pointed out, functional gear for 50+ is readily available from NPCs and from quests.

Doing it at 60 is easy enough but doing things like T9 that require mechanics people don't understand them and end up failing that's the biggest issue running coil. Your best advice is to buy HW OP and join everyone doing Alex, glamour farms, PvP etc it'd be much more enjoyable than trying to do old raids that get boring after the 1000th time.

TC, just get the expansion and move past that content. The reason no one is doing it is there is no incentive to do it, and everyone else has moved on past it (by getting the expansion and doing its content). You are only falling afoul of the consequences of ignoring one rule of MMO's : keep up with the expansions or quit entirely. As you are experiencing, failure to follow this rule sees you left behind, as people move on to expansion content and stop wanting to do old content. Do yourself the favor and just get the expansion.

If you're having issues soloing A ranks, I suggest you try leveling another class that isn't WHM. I know for a fact that WARs can solo ARR A ranks without even needing a bird out. I'd assume it'd be a joke for any tank class with bird out, as I can solo HW A ranks with my PLD.

Thank you, I had thought about it actually but didn't know how viable it was and I'm not very experienced tank. I did one with my PLD but I had a healer back me up. My bird is a DPS but I might respec it as a Healer (or just make it learn some Healer abilities when he levels up). I haven't even joined the Marauder's guild yet but I'm gonna give it another shot with my PLD.

some a marks can be soloed by a 60 war. i did it myself. others dont since they have some kind of specialskill that will fuck you over even at 60. they still deal some damage tough. the main issue is that it TAKES AGES to kill ONE of em even at 60. not really worth it i say^^ post on a ls and some people will come and end it quickly.

For Lv50 As, see Dalvag's Final Flame and its Tornado attack, and any Mark whose AoE damage was meant to be split between party members, usually by stacking (Sabotender Bailarina comes to mind).
A reasonably geared PLD or WAR can take a hit but it will leave them in need of healing, but good luck if you aren't prepared to deal with the next one. Mechanics are still there, so job changes / pets / companions may be a necessity even when fully leveled.

Summoner is most likely the best compromise in terms of safety/damage output, provided you keep both your pet and choco out in the field. That said, I've downed Melt and Vogal Jaa as a tank, but... yes, if you're on your own it takes ages.

Concerning Lv60 As and above, I can think of Mirka because silencing its attacks is vital in avoiding a wipe: he's kind of Maahes 2.0 in that sense, only much more aggressive.
