    All of that said, one (or more) specific mechanic of Coil fights can make or break a random DF group. T7 could have Melusine hitting like a truck (with instant kill Flaming Circles) because people didn't pay attention to their Cursed Voice/Shrieks. T8 could cause wipes because no one was handling the towers, OT didn't stand in the boss to prevent it from turning when it confuses the MT, no one stacked the right amount for Ballistic Missile (if you've run ARF, you'll notice that most DF randos never stack right and always run away with/from Gaseous Bomb), or Allagan Field in general.
    Alot of these mentions are not one shots or even two shots anymore. Post nerfs and overgearing, you can consistently "fail" these mechanics mentioned and NOT outright wipe.

    It takes a literal effort to fail MULTIPLE mechanics in a row to wipe. Even DF is capable to execute one or two mechanics consistent enough. Anyone saying otherwise is outright lying to themselves.
