Hey all!

There's been talks of getting the FC into doing Coil runs, starting right from T1, so I thought it might be good to start up a thread with tips, info, and whatever else may prove useful to help our FC members get the turns done.

I'm no pro in Coil by any means, having cleared only T1 and T4 (in truth the only ones I've even attempted were T1, T2, and T4), but I'd like to offer what I've learned and what I can find to make life easier.

T1 is pretty straightforward, if I recall correctly, but maybe as we're running it my memory will get refreshed… T4 on the other hand… is more or less a DPS race. It takes a little more than just "thro BLMs at dat shit" though. Thanks to running with Aba and his Coil farming PT, I've got a pretty solid sense of how this one works, so when we get to it, it should be pretty easy to clear.

Here's an image I found listing the ACC caps for the different turns. Should be pretty helpful, conisidering that all the "end-gamers" use Coil ACC caps as a base for their stat building.



Please feel free to post your own stuff when/if you have it :)

Cheers, Arch. I've only ever had acc. trouble in T4, but I know there have been complaints about missing ADS in 1 ans 2.

T3 is just run the gauntlet, so easy enough. No loot, no tomes. Do you know if you need to have completed it to access T4 now that they're all DFable?

From personal experience I can confirm that you don't need to do any coils beforehand to access T4. I completed T1, then completed T4 before I even attempted T2 (and have yet to touch T3 or T5).

Also! ACC is a weird thing, because I've not had trouble landing hits even on T4 and this was before my gear was i90+… even now my gear is this:

…and I'm not having problems, so just because there's a "cap", doesn't mean you necessarily have to hit it, or so it seems!
