Coils of Bahamut... and its inconsistent challenge level.

If you want to do the content the way it was originally intended anyway, you're out of luck. Even synced, echo still ruins that for ya.

Bear in mind that the minimum ilvl option is lower than what people would have gone into a piece of content with at the time it was current. So the experience even with the forced Echo would probably still be right around what it was (ignoring the aforementioned nerfs to mechanics and such, of course).
