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

[Jamez82]

Gonna ha e to agree with this idea. It's not always because someone lacks the skill but people like me who have a career, real life friends and family that demand my attention from time to time who can't join a static because your plans can change last minute.
I love the game and wish I could get a steady group going to clear content with but it's simoly not always possible.

All the salty raiders in this thread not wanting to share their precious raids because it's their last resort to retain their shallow pride.

All that generalized prejudice. You're extreme stance isn't any better. The way it's them vs me isn't any better.

These kinds of comments that you just made do nothing to further the conversation. They do nothing to find a solution.

What they DO successfully is inflame and divide people. You aren't helping.

I think SE has made good pace with coil, tuning down the difficulty from past coil to allow much more casual players to beat coil.
No matter if it is nerfing the mechanics or adding echo or just simply letting player to overgear for the raid.

You really don't need a static for majority of the turns in first and second coil - you are allowed tons of mistakes and still pass.
Just practice a bit more, especially with friends that you play with in game - you will eventually beat it.

Who cares if you are a patch or two behind, there is really no need to be completely up to date - take an easy and enjoy some of the more difficult fights of the game.
I personally only stepped foot in T10 and haven't advanced beyond it (I think need to finish my thesis and graduate this semester...) but I have helped alot of players past T9 either helping them with their first clear or just letting them wall it in the beginning with no charge (well for their soldiery bonus >_>). Funny thing is now they are further than me in final coil.

I think your all going to be surprised when Alexander Easy Mode is still on par with current Coil, while the Harder version is the savage version, basically what we got with SCOB but loot instead of titels

From what I recall the words exactly were:

normal mode: about scob with echo
hard mode: harder than scob but less so than savage

Hmm as part of a casual static gotta say its possible to accept real life > game We had a member vanishing (we really dont know what happened but just didnt turn up anymore) we took 2 month before we really kicked him. Also if someone writes 2 hours before raid he cannot make it... reschedule... we have 2 jumpers that are usually part of other teams but are open to help us out... or just cancel a raid.
I'm sure without jumpers isnt as easy but they help out whenever they free and also as 1 has T13 multi-kill hints are pretty welcome ^-^

Coil story should be a hunt reward. 1000 seals/turn.

LOL yes do this.

[Dererk]

I support this. After reading through this thread I will say this.

Why are people mad over this idea?
No loot, no achievements, no progression PERIOD.
Just cutscenes.

This isn't even a casual vs hardcore content thing. Us casuals are NOT trying to get a free ride. We just want story.

But I do agree. SE would have to spend time retuning the content.

I say this:
Offer a quest that awards all the cutscenes.
We talk to some NPCs, and get a "Echo Crystal".
It lets us watch All the cutscenes from the innroom.

Boom. Problem solved. No Raid is even touched.
No loot, no exp, no echo buff, nothing.

Everyone is happy.

Because it takes the whole point out of end game its Kent to be challenging the story is a big part of what makes doing the hard content worth it.

The biggest problem is in MMOs if the stuff is either too easy it will kill it same if it's too hard its a delicate balance it goes like this if it's too much of one or the other.

Free to play.
Cash shop pay to win.
Rest in peace FFXIV.
YOU BLEW IT ALL UP DAM YOU DAM YOU ALL TO HELL.
end scene.

I have been bashing my face against T5 for awhile now with my War/Pld/Brd, just when you think you have a good run going, it only takes one person to screw up the entire run (sometimes it's me >.>) and then can't repeat the good run... 20% echo to start is nice but it doesn't make the fight any easier. Example, getting Ramuh Ex to 3% ... Orz

I almost would want an easy story mode just for progression, but once you beat coil in easy mode then you would have no reason to log in....because everything else are already easy as is, just long grinds.
