I thought I would never run into this issue because I am in a great FC, and we get along fantastic. We had a static going strong, downed t5 before echos and worked on it for a long time. The new coil came out and our group began t6. And this is where the problems begin.

Some of our members dropped our raid to play with other friends in coil who are on t7 and 8, solely because they have to choose which friends they play with. These static parties are really hard to keep going in a game that's based on socialization because people meet people and want to play with them and their old friends.

So these people have to make the choices of which static they want to play with. Why can't we just have the gear locked and not the content? Friends just want to play with friends in the newer content and not wait for it to be on duty finder with no lockouts like old coil.

So because 1-2 go play with other friends, others start to splinter off and then your left with 3 people in the static...and the week prior you had a full 8 people. I'm pretty bummed about this and have not logged on to play since Tuesday ...and have no desire or motivation to do so.
