Leviathan Progression Thread v2

[Raipin]

I agree w/ Quieren on this one. This is fairly time consuming as is with keeping recruiting status, following up on disbanded FCs, and what not. I'm not even bothering with FC websites atm which, if there was a feature I'd like to add, would be it.

If people want their "independent of FC" groups kept track of, I'd recommend they just start their own FC. My FC has three groups which are all pretty much ran independently from each other, but when it came to T5, we took the best from each group and made a kill group to get it down. So in that situation, which group gets the kill credit? Group 1? Group 3? Does that constitute creating a completely new group on the progression list?

I'd rather just keep it all to the FC, as these progression posts are much more about FC recruitment in my opinion than bragging rights. It's a tool for people looking to join an FC, especially server xfers, to see where their prospective FC stands.

I don't believe it should just be limited to FCs that have only downed the hardest content. Just by my FC being up there, and us being in coil I have had people message me and say they are interested in joining or teaming up in case one of us doesn't have enough people, simply because of where we are. If this becomes and Elitist post you can bet someone else will make one that is not. Its easier to include all FCs that care to post their progression than to exclude those you don't deem worthy. Not only is this post more about recruitment, its about being able to offer congratulations to other community members on their accomplishments, regardless of whether they are server first, or server last.

Oh, I definitely believe all FC's should be able to participate. Just not going to separate it down to different groups in a single FC.

I think, however, extreme primals should be a part of the progression. In my opinion, those are a bigger accomplishment in my opinion.

[ChopperMan]

Pastabilities ex co-GM here. We broke up. Some of our members choose to stay in there for some reason.

[Raipin]

Thanks Chopper, and yeah Annun, there'll be a new symbol for EM progression.

So question.... since Twintania (as far as I know) will still be dropping the highest item lvl in the game, is that still going to be what decides the server ranking system for FCs?

[quieren]

Unfort for all the serious progression companies we will be doing the "hardest" content now till spring from the looks. Judging from the drops and the requirements to do the extreme mode primals it's still watered down content and anyone that thinks Crystal tower and it's soon to be LFR WoW type raid is progression, then they don't know what progression is. It's rather upsetting we can't do full company runs in CT and have it be harder then Coil 1-4 for some legit challenging content. Once again, less bragging about killing turn2 this late in, go go turn 5 kills, our server is really far behind others.

Hey, just found this thread Thanks for keeping it updated!

Magmatic Legacy <GNovA> downed Turn 4 on 11-08-2013. Here's a picture of our first attempt on Turn 5.

Eh.. about that Turn 2 thing... I'm half and half about it. Reason being: Pugs that are collaborated and communicative while doing it are able to accomplish kills. At the same time, some companies can't get Turn 2 killed. I say track FCs that kill it, Linkshells and pugs - no. Basically what Raipin said.
