    echo buff...ppl not trying anymore.

    joined the trial roulette, after 1 wipe (lack of dps),ppl were talking about wiping on purpouse to get the echo buff , 2nd try at p2 > some1 called out for wipe (no1 was dead at the time) and ppl just jumped off to their deaths.

    they were talking about wiping more until echo was at 50%......thats mean 15 min wiping on purpouse.

    thats how the game is going to work now? , not even trying , just wiping and wiping until u max the echo then faceroll the boss?

    there was a first timer , good 1 experience

    left the party disgusted ....

    It would be hilarious if people intentionally wiped before 3 minutes and did not get the echo buff.

    I've encountered only one group that was specifically wiping at the 3 minute point to fully stack up Echo, solely so that we'd have as much time as possible to attempt the fight with full Echo as possible. It was Titan EX.

    Even after two full attempts of doing it this way (meaning, two hours; 30 minutes of wiping and 90 minutes of legitimate tries), we still didn't win doing this.

    *shrug* Just goes to show for me how useless the buff is for that particular fight.

    Trial roulette into Titan HM, group intentionally jumped off 5 times for echo buff. 5 people still got hit by landslides on the "actual" try.

    Echo doesn't make bad players good.

    Echo is a lazy way to implement making content easier. Fights like Titan it doesn't help much and Ifrit it can end up hurting you. For fights like coil though echo makes it a cake walk.

    Even worse in coil we get auto-echo from the 1st min and if I click it off people will vote-kick me...

    Like with most/all(?) buffs and mount riding status (and probably a few other things), just right click it to remove it.

    Never a mind was changed on an internet board, no matter how good your arguments are...

    Echo can't cure bad, sorry folks but your rock mother can't save you from yourself(not pointing out anyone in particular in the thread).
