GoodBye... Coil turn 3

[Assirra]

Yep.... it was fun to go everyone as tank and "YOLO!!!!" *start running*. T3 was almost useless before 2.2 patch, but now...

They could remove the instance to reduce stress from servers.

Oh, wait, nobody does T3 (just to get the achievement), there is no stress there

I could have sworn that T3 does not count for the achievement.

T4 doesn't count for the achievement, being a single round room.

Do you still need to do it once before you can do turn 4?

Just curious. I imagine if you do, someone will probably be unhappy and SE will change it so you don't have to do turn 3.... for any reason. :P

They did take the ADS trash mob out of turn 1 so more people would be able to farm it.... That silly trash gave more people trouble than the actual boss sadly.

Last I did T1 (tuesday) ADS was still there...

Sometimes when you get into T1, the shortcut is already up instead of having to kill ADS.

Is that random ?
Because a couple of times shortcuts been up, rest of times not?

I've run multiple turn 1's since the patch. I've never seen the shortcut up at all. ADS had to die each time.

I have a theory, but haven't been able to test it yet. I think it may have something to do with CS skipping and timing. Most likely a bug/exploit, if I can reproduce it, I plan on reporting it.

I just started doing coil myself with my FC in a static group and we did 1, 2 and skipped right to 4. That was my first time doing any coil so 3 is not required. I'd like to do it for giggles though.

I'm pretty sure he was referring to the tank mounts achievement. There are a number of people who believe they can get it via T3, so they make 8 tank parties and continually run that for the tank mounts.

But you do get a mapping achievement for running T3 through to the end once, so there's that...
