No more Echo buff for Coil?

[SaitoHajime]

Echo buffs... is by far one of the worst ideas I have seen in an MMO so far.... don't get me wrong, its not different to what World of Warcraft does.... but the difference is they only do it on content that is 9-12 months old... OR at the end of an expansion's life. not jsut because a new piece comes out.

It completely undermines the whole point of progression. I can understand it in story content.... but not in coil... or extreme primals or even hard mode primals.... you either make them hard, or you don't.... the buff is cheap and lazy... from both developer and player side of things.

This is why people are so excited about WildStar.... it really doesn't care if you fail... you need to get better, or you don't get rewarded... simple gaming logic that seems to be lost to many now.... all about seeing that next custcene right?

Wtf is wildstar and why am I not excited for it

I agree and this is the same argument that every forum has for every mmo I have played. Some girl better rewards for doing content un nerfed. But the fact remains that there are always new and casual players and they attempt to cater to everyone. The ps4 brain in a wave of new ppl that they want to catch up. They will catch up and soon be playing the harder content at release.

I do agree though that its too quick. I like the idea of giving better rewards or making ppl beat something 2x or use but to allow u to learn it.

Its the age old argument...not really but it feels like it.

Yes I am sure it is the next big thing.

it really doesn't care if you fail...

For now

I was waiting for the next buff to try T4 but I guess I'll have to suck it up and do it now lol.

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.

From the other thread about this.

The community team has already said the Dev team doesn't see a need to increase the echo buff %. And like everyone else has already said, echo helps but if you can't dodge WoL/Landside and Twister/Divebombs, no amount of echo buff can help you clear content. Just learn it and take the buff as a bonus.

I rly like what Wildstar is doing, will it last iDK. it is coming out with almost a years worth of future patched alrdy to go. And their ideas are top notch.

also no more echo, fights are alrdy rly easy.
