Coil mode for main story

[Dano]

I'm ok with no loot easy mode dungeon for people to experience it, its like the easy mode primals, but that would mean more development time in tweaking the same dungeon for different demographics and not enough time on delivering new content which this game currently desperately needs. I guess it's currently not on Yoshi's priority to offer other difficulties for current content.

In the future, instead of creating easy modes of dungeons the team plans to add powerful buffs to players that will make difficult dungeons (including Binding Coil of Bahamut) easier to complete.

Sp What does this mean exactly? After a certain patch, everytime u enter the instance you get a buff? Or is it handled like story mode where you have to fail it one time to get the buff the next time? And does this apply to primals (more specifically Titan... /faceroll). Really wish this would be better explained ; ; .

I don't think this applies to Primal HMs, I am curious if this buff is what they had planned when the new coil content comes out and apply it to the 1-5 to decrease the difficulty or is it a buff in ADDITION to the decrease in difficulty they had planned?.

Doesn't matter what other mmos are doing, ffxiv isn't doing that. So go to those games instead? This game doesn't HAVE to do that. Why? because the entire game is easy mode. The entire game has been made easy for people that's never played a mmorpg before. Other mmos, the game is way harder than this.

People crack me up, first this game is a clone, now its doing something that other games aren't doing and people want them to do it too.

What cracks me up is your attempt to troll FFXIV through your continual insistence that the game is easy mode. Yeah it's your opinion but that is an opinion that is completely irrelevant to the discussion at hand.

I don't really get it though, I'm quite sure after enough practice you'll get better and eventually beat it? I mean if everyone has to go through it why shouldn't you and why should there be a nerf? Some people are good at it, some maybe a little bit slower to learn and adapt to mechanics but eventually I'm sure with enough practices you'll get there. I've been wiping for 2 whole weeks on the Asclepius and I still think it's a fun encounter, wouldn't have been as fun if it was anywhere easier. Took us a week to perfect conflags, then another for divebombs. Might take another one or two for the snakes' kill timing and positioning. Pretty sure some people will argue about stuff like "time, lolcasual, lolraiders" but I believe it's just how much you want to be better at this game or how much you want to stay ahead, if you think it's not worth the time investment then feel free to do what you like? Another thing is also about how certain people find certain fights easier than others. I personally think that coil 1-4 is easier than titan, but there are people who faceroll titan and one shot it consistently. Just something else to consider..

Would be nice if they also made an option to go in without the buff so things can be run at their normal difficulty for those that want it at least.

This x100

Or at least, if this isn't feasible, maybe apply the buff to older content with each expansion.

Ruin a beautiful content. You're doing it right.

Agreed. Some of the best games have difficulty settings. Not ones that are imposed, but ones that are *chosen*.

The only way this is a good idea is if you have the option to put the buff up and no good loot drops if you have it on you.

The amount of retardation I could read the past 6-8 pages (maybe less..)

I really think people like Faedden should be ignored because its obvious that they post here with the only purpose to troll or derail the subject.

So, let me highlight it for you "again.."

Absolutely no one is asking for a nerf, the primals being the perfect example when we need a comparison, people are just asking for a quick story mode so they can view the storyline with a character they have been working on for months.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with the above, it does not mean that people are going to "skip" the normal mode once they are done with the story mode, it doesn't mean that people are going to be lazy or slack, it doesn't mean that these persons are not going to try & improve. As I mentioned 10 pages (?) before, it could motivate them to keep growing interest into the game, raise/learn new jobs which could benefit the entire communauty. (More tank? more healer? everytime you hear ppl QQ about the lack of these classes.)

To every of you who are against this idea and principaly to all of you who feel like you're hardcore / better then other players and who think the end of the story should be a reward to thoses who deserve it, I have a question for you.

What do you do that benefit or help the entire communauty? allow me to exclude things such as Youtube & the online guides out of the list, as you are saying that ppl are asking for a story mode are asking to be handled things. Youtube & guides are handled solutions as no personal searchs or attempt have been made.

So again, what do you do that benefit the others? Do you think your behavior or flawless point of view is helping anyone here? Do you think the whole "Watch youtube/get better/etc" is anything helpful ? do you think the discriminative behavior toward some classes or players is helping?

Funnily enough you tell ppl to work their ass off if they want something because its what you did, then you will discriminate a job(s) because it take more effort/time & more skills to do something when you have it/them in your party, I say that just to point out how hypocrit your point of view and/or statements can be, and you know what? The list is long.

Seriously, if you have nothing better to say to back up your contestation(s) then you better be quiet or just say clearly what bother you --> "I'm a selfish little kid who want to look good on a MMO so I contest the idea of a story mode coil so I can feel special and tell the other to get better."

Grow up.
