Binding Coil of Bahamut Discussion

you have to know that they may be Legacy Players, which meant that they probably didn't have to go through the whole leveling process. And then there is that possibility that some, if not all of them, has acquired Darklight gears in v1.0. If that's the case, then they also didn't have to acquire all that many gears to meet the entrance requirement like the most of us would have to .

Modified is non-legacy.

Don't let our progress fool you. These fights are pushing the absolute limits of what we can do with Ilvl70 gear. Bahamut's coil was designed for you to beat Crystal Tower first and gear up in the ilvl85 gear that dungeon drops. Yoshi-P was entirely right when he said less than 100 players will clear this before 2.1.

How many other FC's have you heard of beating wings 1 and 2? You clearly don't know much about Blue Garter lol. You can't compare there progress to anyone else's, if there having a hard time with bosses, then 90% of the other FC's out there are probably not even gonna beat it for a long time.

This end game is awesome and extremely challenging, you should have no worries at all.

Dont get me wrong pls Bluegartr guys. I want nothing more than there to be content in this game that not everyone will be capable of beating and if what you say is true then i couldnt be happier with the potential endgame ill be working towards

I just dont think everyone understands the the difference between what truly makes a hard fight and what becomes mundane after gearing for it and understanding mechanics which is what my post before this one was trying to explain.

As for not even 100 ppl beating this before 2.1 This could be due to a few factors such as 2.1 being released sooner than expected therefore the players on non legacy not having the time to gear up and have plenty attempts at the current endgame or they could end up having plenty time and its as you say that they will fail instead due to the genuine difficulty of the content.

We are not affiliated with bluegartr.com. As for the difficulty, you should see non-legacy groups clearing turn 1 of Coil soon if they haven't already. Although these fights are tuned exceedingly well for gear progression, the execution requirement is such that if you have players with a lot of endgame experience in other MMORPGs, they will learn faster than others. Each successive boss fight is exponentially more difficult in at least either complexity or tuning, and in the case of turn 1 to turn 2, it's both. We're psyched to see a lot of competition coming up.

When you see this content for yourself, it should quell any doubts you might have, even if you come in with full CT gear and a relic weapon +1.

How many tries you need to win each boss ?

[Drex]

Are all jobs needed? or will we see more shitty job stacking (I really hate that)

Do all dpss work well or do you have some that is much stronger than the others in LoB?

Grats btw, great job .

[Alise]

Could I ask question about Job and status? I figured that only BG might already researched into this.

1. Is there a status cap? with full dark light gear and relic weapon would that make main status at near cap for level 50? I'm a WHM, and having nearly all Dark Light right now, I wonder if I should reset my +30 MND from bonus into VIT or something else if my MND may exceed cap ? (it is just my guess, but I feel like my cure doesn't improve with anymore MND atm)

2. I believe this is the question where everybody waiting for. Best gear MNK vs Best gear DRG. Who could do more DPS on single enemy boss? I believe only the best player who master all the skills and use parser program can answer this.

[carraway]

No stat caps as far as we can tell. Due to itemization, I would predict that if there are any stat caps implemented, they are at such a high number they will never be reached.

There are less gaps between the DPS jobs than there were in during beta phases. DRG and MNK can get very close to each other on single-target. BRD is much better than we thought from beta testing. We won't proscribe anything for others; go to training dummies and see for yourself (level 1s work fine, there is no level correction for raw damage output).
