So... Bahamut

[Aryalandi]

It's thrilling that they even still think about the coils... you know... the coils... where no one ever goes in to the original version anymore and thus there is next to no way for anyone to do so without a stable group of friends and thus no one can really get through for the special "you stuck with me to the end <3" dialogue from Alisae when it's brought up during the storyline..?

Is there anything at all coming up to deal with this? Will we be able to run it with our GC squadrons? Anything? I have literally not once in the time I have played gotten to run the coils for storyline sake and I'm drowning in the salt from that fact.

Its an MMO - ask other people to run it with you. It can practically be unsynced with 3 people at this point except for maybe Turn 9.

What he said, or view the cutscenes in your room. Each turn takes about 1-3 minutes.

Plus there are groups in PF daily.

except for maybe Turn 9.

Three people at 70, pld/dps/dps (or any other tank if your dps are on point enough) is enough for t9. The only reason you can't do it with tank+dps is because the fire cycles too fast.

This was at ~i315 when we did it I think, maybe i320, 'tis not hard.

I remember it being doable with three people, but I'm mostly just accommodating for the average skill level of the playerbase being toward the lower end - meaning DPS will probably be lacking a bit. And since DPS is kind of key in that fight - if your DPS isn't decent you might not push Nael hard enough in the post-Heavensfall transition to avoid Divebombs (which will basically wreck any party not prepared with a strat on how to bait them.)

Ask some friends or FC mates. You don't need the full eight people to clear them.

[BillyKaplan]

If it's your first time clearing, you can set up your own PF. I don't foresee problems unless you want to run it synced, and so long as you say in the PF that you'll be watching cutscenes you should be good to go. People like their bonus.

[Kazgrel]

Start group in PF. Make note that you have bonus. Sit back and watch people join. Faceroll everything short of T9.

I just did all of the coils for story/achievements the week before 4.1 with 3-4 others.

Don’t wait for the hero to pick up the sword and slay the dragon. Become the hero, pick up the sword and slag the dragon yourself.

Create a PF, it may take time and a few attempts. If it matters this much, then I believe you will see it through to the end.
