20% Coil Buff Not Being Implemented???

[Nadrojj]

If you're still having trouble with the T5 mechanics, in full i90+, with a flat-rate 15% boost to HP/cures/damage from echo, you're going to have some pretty big headaches with T6.

This, this right here.

One of the Japanese reps said something about them halting the plans to increase the Echo every 2 weeks because they were pleased with how groups were currently progressing.

Nothing new with SE here. Move along.

We either get late information, no information, or horribly translated information that leaves one confused.

The NA Community Team us in California so on Pacific Time and that response was posted at 7:30 Eastern. Reps aren't up at 4 am translating posts... It's still only 11 am in Cali so give them time. They usually post dev responses after 3:00 pm Eastern.

Greetings,

Since the introduction of the Echo bonus to the Binding Coil of Bahamut, the development team has been looking at the number of times players have been challenging it as well as the number of parties that are clearing the content each day.

We originally announced that every two weeks we would be increasing the Echo bonus; however, looking at the current rate of clears and the balance of the rewards being obtained, we’ve decided to halt increasing the bonus further.

The team will continue to look at the conditions day to day as we move forward and consider increasing the bonus further if it is deemed necessary.

it's not the only thing it does, that's completely wrong. a high enough gear/echo boost will allow 1 or 2 DPS to kill dreadknights even if the others died to twisters. it also allows solo healing for Death Sentence so you can afford having a healer die to Twisters. it allows for people to be dead at divebombs and you still have enough DPS to kill the snakes before Aetheric Profusion.

Not exactly. It may allow one DPS to kill DKs, but think of how long the fight will last after that. Even Titan HM with one DPS lasts a considerate amount of time. The enrage timer would kick in and the group would wipe. An Echo so large that it could allow such a thing would basically turn the fight into a carry. Either way, if so many people die at divebombs or twister, then the players in the group need more practice. Echo should not be big enough to die without much repercussions and think that another team member will pick up the slack.

They've never been good at this release promised things on time thing, always things getting pushed back, even small things like a 5% buff increase.

And they will apologize for it, as usual ^^

[KingOfAbyss]

But we did beat it. See my earlier thread post here. Im not sure how you got that interpretation from what i was saying either. It's pretty simple, I was saying it would have been nice to have an extra 5% but i was being positive and saying i was sure we didn't need it to succeede. And we didn't! Hooray! However, it may have given us just a bit more breathing room is all. By no means do i expect SE to cater to my FC specifically either.

I mean, sure, I could dig this hole with a bigger shovel but the medium one i have now will do just fine...just might take a bit more effort.

Buff or no buff the win still felt good. Some part of me wishes we could have been one of the groups to down her before the echo....it is what it is.

One word: AWESOME!

By the time I logged into the forums and had to do other things.. I didn't see that one: Congratulations!

The issues we have and still need to tweak are mostly people not paying attention

I remember someone's Sig:
Paying attention and dodging in games? Ain't nobody got time for that! ^^

Not exactly....

not exactly except it was exactly what i said in the first place.

Twisters will still suck but the bigger the buff the easier it is for the other people to carry them.

it's like you disagree just so you can disagree.
