    Crystal Tower apparently has a loot lockout so one could feasibly be added to Coil.


    There are no words to express just how vastly frustrating it has been trying to get runs set up when many of the people in our FC have very tight schedules and this is the first content that does not allow us to freely swap people in and out as needed. Doing something with my FC and people I want to spend time with should not be this awful. We would love to learn these fights and welcome the challenge.

    We can't really get PUG members, because gear that they win is essentially gear dropped to the floor as it is not improving our group. To add to that, that is one less FC member that is getting important run practice. It's highly unlikely that we would be able to re-invite the PUG member for future runs if we ever need them to fill a slot again because of the stupid lockout. I wouldn't mind randoms getting gear at all if I could count on their help in the future. It would be great for the community.

    To add to that, we can't even grab members from our planning-to-be-allied FC because they have their own runs to do and taking their members means locking them out of their own runs and their own practice and such.

    Coil just fights us every step of the way and honestly feels like it greatly benefits PUG players over anyone that is dedicated to their FC simply because they have no strong ties to other people and don't have to concern themselves with locking others out of content.

    The difficulty in content needs to be in the content itself, not scheduling to get around an obnoxious mechanic.
