If you're stuck in Coil1 I can see it actually being harder to get through in some ways than pre-2.3. One thing that people often forget is that players move on from the old content. There's really no reason to go back and to t5 again any more, none of the gear is relevant.

Coil isn't supposed to be main story as far as I've ever seen. I can see making it easier in order to help people that are really stuck but making it a freebie cheapens the experience. Maybe remove the instant death wall so dive bombs aren't so bad and twisters one take out the one person.
