    I don't recall them mentioning upping the drop rate. I'd have to dig through patch notes. You could be thinking of Primal mount drop rates or TT card drop rates. Really they should be 100%. ;-; I rarely do get Weeping or Dun in Alliance Roulette (always LotA cries), but I've only seen Scathach a handful of times between HW and SB. And then I roll sub 20 and really cry.

    Yeah I see that one more than the others, probably because people cheese the roulette with lower ilevel and it dumps everyone else in there lol

    I’m guessing it’s either that, or they just unlock LotA and ST, since you only need two 24-mans unlocked to unlock the roulette. That way they get super easy roulette for really good experience. Makes me sad, because I much prefer Weeping City or Dun Scaith. :c

    Just being stingy? A reason doesn't have to be a good one. When I think about it, because the drop rate is so low, no one really queues into Dun Scaith for the sole purpose of a Scathbach acquirement, so changing it to a 100% drop rate isn't going to kill the content. It would actually probably raise the rate people specifically queue into it for at least a couple weeks.

    It's a fun raid, but not everyone's favorite considering many wipes still happen there, and quite a few mechanics are still introductory for several players each time you run it.

    Seems like a weird oversight that all the newer and older raid minions drop every run (O.Knight, Puff, Echidna, Construct) but not Calo and Scath. My assumption is they just forgot. They changed the older ones to 100% drop and just forgot about these two.

    Scathach and Calofisteri need to be made 100%, I got lucky while glamour farming Dun Scaith but I have 150+ runs of Weeping City, every set completed and still no Calofisteri.

    I'd say they should make the Wind-Up Calofisteri a 100% drop rate first before eventually making Wind-Up Scathach a 100% drop rate as well. I'd say give the difference a half-patch or so.

    I'd be fine with this so long as they address it at all.

    I've tried to point this out several times before the launch of Stormblood, only to see the posts get buried. I also noticed someone found one of them. While I have gotten all three at this point, it still bothers me. All I want is for them to keep to a pattern so we can decide how we go about it. We're this far into Stormblood and yet they fail to at least state a reasoning as to why they have 1 of these minions at 100% drop rate and the other 2 completely ignored. I know of a dozen or more players who would have run those raids until their eyes bled to get them easier then by today's standard. We all thought they would be brought in line with the other drop rates. Instead ignored and forgotten.
