Is Binding Coil of Bahamut turn 1 to 4 puggable?

[xenogear3]

It seems I can queue it.

Is it puggable?
Do I get wipe boost?

[blackpink]

yes easily.

[sinilaid]

yep its really easy with a pug

[Clockwork Pinkie]

Yea but good luck getting in for 3, longest queue by far because it doesn't drop loot. 4 might give you some problems, but a few wipes are expected. But you can queue it, and than party finder the others up to at least 7, then you'll want a static group.

[xenogear3]

What do you mean by no loot?

Who will run it then

[sinilaid]

some turns are about story, others have boss fights. And yea 3 has a long ass queue, I just did it once for the story and that was it.

[xenogear3]

Just got in Turn 3.
Someone jumped around and finished for us.

It is a good free week to get in.

[Graeham]

They're fairly straightforward and shouldn't be a major obstacle. You might encounter a few terrible groups though!

[xenogear3]

Turn 1 to 4 are all 1 shot for me.

How about turn 5?
A few failed groups so far.

[Noidm]

I would not recommend to DF turn 5 unless you have a premade 5,6,7/8.

Turn 1, 2 and 4 are a walk in the park now.

[Graeham]

Turn 5 is very difficult to do with a random group. The tactics are fairly complex and one mistake usually means a wipe. I'm sure it is possible to complete it via the duty finder but so far I've had no luck.

[xenogear3]

Failed groups for Turn 5 and all extreme so far.

How about Ultimate Ballad?

What really matters is your server cluster. Some server clusters are really good and we were able to down EXs in DF a few times. I've heard horror stories about others.

Ultima HM is pretty unforgiving in its final mechanic, but as long as you save for tank LB3 and designate 2 people to pop every set of balls, then it's not too bad. People tend to freak out during the disco laser floor show, so save your defensive cds for that part.

Which are you on?

I tanked (solo) turns 1-3 very easily with the same group.
We chained one after another.
We did turn 4 too but a bard switched to pld for that one.
From what I remember it can't be solo tanked.
Turn 5 is another story. Haven't tried it yet.

[Grym]

T4 can now be solo tanked, can't remember if he was PLD or WAR though, but we did it easily with the ilvl nowadays as well as 20% boost.
