SE This is what we needed good job.

Q21: Will the difficulty of turns 1-5 be eased? And will the weekly lock out be removed?

A21: Yes. We plan on easing the difficulty and we will be removing the weekly lock out for turns 1-5.


Removing the weekly cap on CoB is awesome! 72hr lockout anyone?

There will be people complaining, anyway.

Nobody can say anymore that SE isn't listening. It was a false statement anyway. But this community tends to be kind of dense.

1 week after:

SE please remove lockout from T6 - T9. This game is boring.

Every party on PF is going to be i90 average.

[Yagrush]

I wouldn't be surprised if i90 would be the minimum requirement for the next wing of Coil. Which would make sense and not be a problem if "everbody is i90" (Which is not correct anyway since it will still take time and luck to get the items you want from Coil)

[Dazd]

I don't know why everyone thinks this is such a big deal, it's going to be "outdated" content so it's common sense that they would do this. The same lockouts will still be on new turns and anyone who is going to be doing it will already be i90.

Question, by removing lock out, does this mean you can keep doing 1-5 to farm for equips until you are fully equipped in 1 day(if you have energy to do so) or will it be like CT whereas there's no lockout but can only loot 1 item a week?

[Miburo]

They're just going to cap the next turns. I just hope they'll lower it from a week to 3 days or have a token system like 1.23 garuda or something. Random drops plus weekly lockout is such a horrible idea. My bro has been doing coils as a healer weekly since september and hasn't even seen the allagan hands of healing once. That's brutal.

If 2.2 is just "Same crappy things you were already doing, but now you're starting all over!" then I dunno about this game anymore. ESO comes out around then, right...? >_>

Good question but nobody knows as this is not specified in the PL

[Esmian]

While I'm all for the idea, I wonder what they're going to do for Turn 1. Turns 2, 4, and 5 are pretty much just the encounter fights but Turn 1 has the ADS sub boss and then the mob pulls and finally the boss. Would be nice for farming purposes if they got rid of that to make things even on a turn by turn basis for DF.
