    One other thing. For those saying we had 6+months no we did not. First, myself and many more, do not put 40+ hours a week into this game. I have a job and family. Next, you gotta spend time leveling to 50 (and doing it again with a 2nd class for Coil subs) and grind them to get geared after. You also need to find 7 other members that can consistently play in your time slot (mine is always late evenings CST) and work like clockwork together. If you are stuck using all PUGs it takes twice as long to get anything done and you are relying on pure luck at that point.

    Taking in all those factors, 6 months is not enough time. What ruined Coil?

    Lockouts. If this was never there Coil would not have caused toxicity in the community and breaking FCs apart as it has now.

    I keep hearing this statement and it just confuses me in general, what MMO raiding environment were all these people coming from that they've never had to deal with lockouts before?

    What are you even talking about, you don't have to play 40+ hours a week in this game to have downed Coil. That's ridiculous. When we were progressing on Coil we had 2 2 hour raid nights each week, then went up to 3 2 hour raid nights when we got to TT. This game has required the least amount of time for me in the raiding scene of any MMO I've played before, it's a big part of why I like it as I'm not committed to 12+ hours a week just on raiding.

    What you do need is a group of 8 people that can commit to regular attempts, even if it's only 2 times a week. Everything else falls into place after that.
