  1. Have not done these raids properly as I only started playing a couple years ago. Something I really like about these raids is that they all had a sense of place and continuity. I loved that you got a message at the start of each raid telling you how many yalms underground you were

    Its something I kinda feel like fell off starting with the Omega raids, fights are just a platform on a cool background. Definitely at its worst with the Eden raids, as much as I enjoy them. though they also had to work on that at the start of covid taking off, so I can't be too harsh. Really glad the Pandaemonium raids have a consistent design theme where you can tell these are locations in a place rather than just being some random design.

  2. Its because of the Binding Coil that I have a close nit group of friends where we do dungeons and other activities. We even had the pleasure of meeting each other at the 2018 fan fest in Vegas. Those raid hit a good chord with me.

  3. Bahamut should be 1 just because unlocking the fight nets you a 7minute hifi fmv that theyve never done again, which totally blows.
    Also they need to bring back full voice actingin raids bc all these stories- Omega, Bozja, Eden, Panda- just…theyre kinda dull in cutscenes, 14 certainly makes the money to do this for all major side content

  4. Turn 9 really is one of the most underrated fights in the game.

    As a side note, she was the unsync run ender for so many sprouts who thought they could stomp through the coils no issue. They'd trounce everything else without much effort, then Nael and the ice dragon especially put an end to so many unsync groups in HW and SB. Even in SHB, she could kill level 80 players if they weren't that good.

  5. I'm a person who wants the longer normal raids back, maybe not as long as some of binding coil, Alexander did the storytelling with less. But I'll compromise. Savage is boss only. Possibly with doorboss and checkpoint.

  6. I remember T9. I knee the fight perfectly but back then I did not have a static. So a good pal of mine who was in the FC took people from othwr FC and mine and they created a group just to help me out.

    Then… I got HORRENDOUS internet connection all of the sudden. I could only play through parts of the fight and I caused so many wipes. At the end they kinds carried it with 7 man and I was able to get my clear. I was so ashamed and happy at the same time, but I will never forget T9. It was easily a fight that upped the difficulty a lot compared to anything else at the time.

  7. My most favorite from coils has to be T9, I had a blast learning it with my FC back then. We were already overgeared running it with 130ilvl since we only started going through coils in 2.5 but that didn't take away from the fight at all. It is still my favorite encounter I have ran to this day for sure.

  8. Binding Coils minilvl is the only "hardcore" content I did with a static, but to this day it remains my favourite memory of playing the game (and BOY did it teach me to play this game). We took a rly long time (around a year I think) because we were going only 1 time a week, but we made some rly fun memories and everyone pulled their way and stayed chill to the very end.
    Nael / T9 was 100% my favourite fight, the mechanics are so fun ! And as a tank it felt really good to be involved in the mechanics along everyone else (thunder, fire, etc)
    Then I think my favs are probably 11 (as a tank) > 12 > 13 > 8 > 5 > all the others

    Def hope to get around to trying the Ultimate Coils someday >:Ô

  9. T3 is still the most fun experience I’ve had in this game.

    We’d all throw 100k each into a pot, take all our equipment off bar weapon and first one to the end got all the cash.

    The amount of shithousery that came from switching platforms on people was brilliant

    Big fan of t7, t6 was alot of fun too
