Oh look, more fabricated "facts".

You're apparently so hellbent on not DPSing as a healer, but you don't even seem to understand the arguments what others are making. Most of them aren't even saying that you must deal damage as a healer.

No, there's people in this thread that are are obsessed with minmaxing, that if the healer isn't included, then they're angry that the healer isn't maximizing the damage. You are so quick to assume things about me that are untrue.

While you haven't even beaten the Binding coil of Bahamut yet, or Turn 5 specifically, that's not the problem here.

I'm not confident I'm going to find people who want to play it for fun given that the PF's are always full of people trying to sell carries through it or other content. Given how PUG groups have gone, I'm doubtful that anyone is even doing them if they're so "hard".

You know what... I'm going to sit in the DF queue all day on Turn 1 (until I get a party) and see if anyone joins.

Took less than 10 minutes. Party was all newbies except one DPS and one tank. Run took 28 minutes Through The Binding Coil of Bahamut turn 1.
Stuff that happened:
- Wipe at ADS, tank ran in without the DPS.
- One Wipe at Caduceus, the first time the panels lit up.

...or you could try meeting like-minded people who want to progress Coil from the beginning and have fun learning and executing the fights together. That's exactly how I first cleared T5, anyway.

I do hope that you get more experience with other parts of the game, because you might finally appreciate how playing well and achieving objectives can be fun and rewarding in and of itself rather than some form of elitist sadomasochism.

Looks like I'm waiting on T3 now. 75 minutes, 4 DPS, no Tanks.

Hahaha... Legacy server.

No one does T3 because it has no loot. I'd skip it unless you have a premade party.

I gave up at the 135 minute mark. Then when I clicked T4, It was less than 90 seconds.

Everyone does T4 because you can farm it.

Min/maxing:

Maxing Virus usage between every caster
Maxing out staggered CDs from tanks so you can DPS more
Embrace spamming from SCH
Working out CD and Aetherflow usage for the entire fight to max survivability while DPSing
Getting E4E up constantly from every DoM without overlapping
Knowing the fights to a T, including every minor cleave
Wiping over and over again finding the threshhold where you can let the tank dip really low without dying (yes those healers who do high damage have to trial and error it, that stuff doesn't come in one try)
Taking all of the above and applying it to each fight and your team's level of DPS, usually with no-tank stance tanks main tanking

What the people in this topic are actually saying:

Don't just stand around when there's virtually nothing to heal
