Quote:In 2.45 we will also be introducing a system where players can help people with the final coil of bahamut after they’ve been locked out. For people who don’t want a second chance at loot but rather want to help their FC mates and friends clear.

I can just SEE the broadcasts for people selling Final Coil runs now...

Well...I can already see them because it's totally happening! But now, you can buy your runs and not risk the loot!

This.

Also, if you know adds are about to pop soon, you can hold onto Spirits Within and Circle of Scorn and use those to help with snap aggro. A combo'd Savage Blade with Spirits Within on add #1 and combo'd Rage of Halone on add #2 has never given me problems.

Oh, tears of joy!! :')

The Coil news about being able to help friends but not rolling on loot? Best news in a LONG time.
I want all the wedding things. I proposed to my Highlander raid member after being rejected. "Hey, ____, marry you Big Hulking DRG <3! I'll pay for the wedding."

I think I was still rejected.

I can't wait to take advantage of being able to help friends get accustomed to coil without having to deal with lockouts. But then it's still FCOB. People will still need to clear T9 to get there. Or T5 and T9.

Did you ever end up setting up that ls? It'll be quite useful the more people clear T9. No more need to stick with just your team every week.

But there're been so many times a BRD has done the healer LB3 to save the party. (I'm not even kidding here. It was kinda sad, but also kinda amazing).

I am totally looking forwards to seeing new LB and new LB3s for jobs though.

Ughhh yes I have. I have been unlucky to either not be searching at the right times or... not searching at the rugh times. Let me know when I can throw a pearl and I'll make sure to be available to do so if I can!

I know a variety of T9 strats now. And some I know don't work very well that people try suggesting

Kage, I don't know you but your posts made me laugh and forget about my sorrow for the lack of Ishgardian housing. I think I like you! Big Grin

I hope that is a good thing. But maybe in times later they will see we want it.

I'm looking forward to tank LB being reworked. The level 1 is all-but useless (healer LB would more than make up for the damage resisted, but then again so does medica/medica 2/ basically anything) and the level 2 isn't enough to warrant use over a damage version.

Aside from using it to help nudge progression on specific phases and (arguably still, given gear inflation) Ultima HM there's no reason for a tank to ever LB unless they're the last one standing.

Only places I've seen Tank LB used are...

1) Ultima HM
2) Titan Hard/EX ...and with the echoness it isn't even done anymore.
3) Central Decks (SCoB Turn 3 /Turn 8) when someone gets hit with 4k or less damage while afflicted with Allagan field (it saves parties, but gosh the healers have stress afterward MANTRA MANTRA MANTRA)
4) When the team is going to win something anyway and the tank uses it because it looks cool


...it really does look cool

But meh, there aren't many situations where it would SAVE a party. Damage and healing level threes are so valuable in its place.

Ye shrewd motherfuckers you kept this from me.

Mah tears, they are of joy.

(now watch it be something like "easy access i70 jewelry", when jewelry was the first thing I ended up melding Big Grin)

A10: Yes, there are still plans to implement this feature. While there isn’t too much we can reveal at this time, just to give you a preview, we are currently discussing a new type of content where you will control your own unit for your grand company, add NPCs in your unit, and take them to dungeons to level them up.

O_O All of the yes! CAPTAIN MIRKE IS GONNA BE A THANG! AN IN GAME THANG! /grabby hands

This was my favorite thing in this letter, I love military stuff, and leading a unit in a dungeon sounds like a blast.

Collision from Gilgamesh apparently used Tank LB on Turn 13's Teraflare and nabbed a World Second. It has its uses.
