How about... an easy mode Coil?

Also 2.4 is coming in a month or so.

Watch people wipe to a fight people could do in DL with iLevel 130+ gears!

Yeah, I am gonna cringe at the wave of complaints of people not being able to clear T6 let alone T5. The mechanics are way tougher and involve watching yourself and surroundings a lot more than T5 does. T7 even more so. No damage boost is going to help them, heck if anything it makes it more difficult because you then need to stop DPS and do phase changes at correct times.

Also, whats the point of a "practice mode"? Isn't that just making a redundant version of T5? Why can't you just practice on the current T5?

LOL this thread.

NO NO NO NO.
LFR (what you are asking for basically) is a very bad idea like wow showed.
Sure now you only want to finish the content, next thing people will demand loot cause they pay for this game as well as those "bunch of no lifers who sit at their PC all the time".
Honestly, t5 doesn't require anything that you mentioned. All it requires is a group of people who know the fight. Just make a group in party finder for an easy kill.

I don't see coil 1-5 getting harder so... (maybe a savage mode? but I doubt they'd remove normal or anything) Only way to go is down.

That said making an "easy" version nor nerfing the instance doesn't seems very likely imo, instead it'll get easier by reason of being able to sneeze and get ilvl 250 gear some point in the future.

Or course I guess they could change it from a "raid" to be a normal instance that people go like "woot my daily coil roulette gone me T5! 5 tomes of Glowing awesome amazingness without even trying!"

But I'm guessing that'd only happen when it gets so old no one ever cares about it.

Not sure why people want "Easy" mode for the first Coil, since it is already on easy mode now....Yeah I do agree the lack of "knowledge" on how to play your job correctly and how to work together in a group and make sure to practice the DDR or DIE DIE move so you can perform your jiggity dance to avoid getting one shotted. DF in American servers do tend to be on the worst side in terms of player's quality - no one seems to know what Party Finder is, and no one seems to understand what "let's make a group and practice" and use Party Finder for this...

That's in the game already. Passing it requires 2 things:
1.A good connection (having someone d'c during fireballs in t5 or voice in t7 is rather annoying) and
2. Paying attention

After having beaten T5 with my FC a few days ago, I can say with confidence that T5 really isn't as hard as what people make it out to be. Just grab a group of friends/FC members/people you trust enough who are willing to fully focus on it and you'll get it down in no time. Certainly no need to be putting in an easy mode.

Just keep going at it until you manage to get past the dreadknight/twister phase and you have yourself a win. (The last phase is extremely easy, hence why I say guaranteed win)

[monochromicorn]

the reason why people dont ever get past T5, myself included, is because once you get that first wipe, everyone abandons. so it doesnt matter how skilled you are, or how easy it has been to to complete for you, if you DF T5, nobody is going to help the new people. and it sucks. the farthest ive gotten was phase 3? we had just killed the snakes, and we got our 3rd wipe, and everyone abandoned.

NA servers? Those DF groups tend to abandon everything fast. They expect you to be ultra perfect the first time, no wipe etc.... Speed run!!!!, don't give a rat ass on everyone else wether they can catch up or not. SKIP everything!! FAST FAST FAST!! Someone on reddit posted that Japan group use PF to practice and DF to kill things fast. My experience tend to be much much much better with the Japan server compared to NA servers. When most Pick Up Groups via DF on NA servers couldn't barely kill Ultima Weapon Hard Mode (we didn't abandoned, but we timed out) - and wiped over and over on Labyrinth of Ancients, I knew it was time to cough up $18 and move out from NA servers...
