Not everyone deserves coil gear. They want people to gain experience with groups and learn the fights.
Really? My problem is that I have to choose 7 friends from my FC to play with on a weekly basis and your solution is to stop playing with those 7 friends and play with others instead? Remind me again, how exactly does that solve my problem? Seems like either way I have to tell some friends "sorry, i'm not playing with you this week" in a genre of gaming that revolves almost entirely around playing with other people.
