The last MSQs had a high challenge in that game, with a larger party than normal, but because they weren't related to anything else, they became outdated and no one ran them anymore. To fix this, the devs lowered the overall damage and HP pools, tweaked the ability sets, and made the battles take fewer players (the FF equivalent of 4 instead of 8).
So basically, just have an alternate version of the battle that's a bit easier for people to handle.
If SE really wants people to be able to do Coil in the future, they're going to need to do something - and I do think it's fair that new players have a chance to play the storyline, given its relevance.
