    It's about time to add Coil story mode, isn't it ?

    It's been a long time since we first asked for it. A version of the coil which would only serves the purpose of giving the story to players.

    => no loot at all
    => eased version compared to normal (less damage, few to none OH-KO moves)
    => does not grant access to the next normal coil


    The way I'd see it is a release "for the story" 3 month after the new coil is added (adapt to future raids we get). It would allow people with no will/no time to find a team/do raid to enjoy the story stuck behind those doors.


    The release should be as follow :

    => new raid, normal difficulty and all
    => 3 month after, at next patch, the story mode opens for those who did not manage to win the last part of the raid. Winning a story floor does not allow to enter a "normal" floor after. As an example, T6 story mode would not unlock T7 normal mode but only T7 story mode.

    => 3 month after, new raid. The story mode of the old raid doesn't grant access to the new one. As an example, T9 story mode doesn't grant access to T10 normal mode. You'll have to wait 3 month to get the T10-... in story mode to progress in the story.



    Please let us enjoy the story you create, for those among us who couldn't care less about the stuff or those who just can't complete the requirements

    ... coils arent that hard if you put your head to it.

    If they do that I fear i'd loose interest in coil, and in the game in general

    sadly it isn't. Just have to look how much of a failure can be a T5 with randoms

    not for you (and prolly not for me either if I had the time/dedication to have a group to do it with my odd schedule and my lack of motivation to have fix hours to raid) but there are a lot of people who are stuck in coil.

    What good would that do to kick people that suck? What if the people that suck are fc mates , friends or rl friends you'd be denying them the chance of beating it. And again its obviously not easy to get a t5 win if alot of people still cant get a win

    If you can't win turn 5 with 20% echo, it's not twintaina its you. There are only 4 or 5 mechanics that 3 or 4 mechanics that will murder you. Everything else is recoverable if you fail at it.

    I'm not really against the idea of a story coil, so +1 OP, but another thought I had is couldn't you guys wait a couple months until ilvl 150~ gear makes it even easier?
    It gets easier with each update just because of the higher level of gear that's available (without even taking Echo buff into account), so I kinda get the feeling that in a few more months it will already FEEL like a story mode. It seems to me that by the time they would even get around to implementing a story coil (months obviously cause everything takes forever), you definitelyyyyy wouldn't need it.

    I'd reckon even with i150 gear, the people who are stuck now , will still be stuck because they can't negotiate twisters, dive bombed, and conflagrations.

    I believe that in i160 gear, people will still fail Twintania unless they make it so that twisters don't instantly kill, and the flame wall doesn't instantly kill. As long as they keep that, people will still be blocked by it. Gear does not cure bad (or lag).

    What good are 'friends' if you can't be honest? I'm in a static with a healer buddy and if he does something bad, I tell him, and if I mess up, he tells me. I tell my own husband that he needs to improve if he's not doing what he is suppose to.

    I'm not going to lie to someone and tell them they are doing good when they aren't, friend or not. If you can't be honest with your friend(s) then what kind of friendship is that?

    Back to OP: Doesn't bother me either way, if no loots and no unlocks, then it shouldn't effect anything/anyone.
