    And if you want easy raiding we already have that, it's called first coil(with the echo it as now), and if you want them to increase echo further sure why not, and crystal tower. Want an easier version of Second coil? It's almost certainly coming in 2.4

    I personally disagree with the OP that the game is too difficult. The difficulty is right where it needs to be for the most part. It's not hard, but it can be challenging in certain areas. Best thing to do to clear Coil content is to get a static group together that can easily communicate with one another.

    Honestly if they made end game content any easier I'd probably be bored out of my mind. The mechanics of these fights are the only thing that overshadow the incredibly long GCD of this game. If the mechanics didn't keep me focused I'd just get bored of sitting around waiting nearly 3 seconds to do the next attack in my "combo" (if you can even call that a combo in this games extremely long GCD)

    Twin is twin. 15% echo has made it pretty accessible, but still a tall wall for certain groups. For some reason, SE didn't raise it above 15%, which is just stupid, but they have their internal numbers, we have ours.

    Twin at 35% would have made a lot of people happy.

    Right now twin at 15% and i95~ gear is on Titan EX level challenge where you still have a wall that comes along with "extreme luck or social circle". At 35% that margin would have lowered a lot to make it further easier progression.

    Twin still needs a very good tank, 2 above average healers, and 3 above average dps. Meaning you really can't get much progression going with a darth of tanks going on.

    If it was 35% like it should have been, it would have downed to 1 above average tank, 2 average healers, 3 average dps.

    The point is that they need to either keep buffing echo, or change echo to even out the tank/healer/dps skill averages. A tank with more HP will still kneel over if he is off the ball, while a dead dps is somewhat fixed by the echos, and going down a healer is pretty harsh as always.

    On a side note, being able to carry 1 phoenix down has always been a stupid SE thought process. Many other games let you carry rez scrolls for any characters and is easily accessible. They were inferior to magic raise, but they made it where teams could support each other outside class.

    You can't even use it in battle - completely useless.
