Ugh, day 2 now of the slugfest that is Zeruhn Mines. We just got Mystery Boxes: Bastok so Zeruhn Mines is just overcrowded at the moment, so I'm taking a break until later.

Sitting on Discovery level 2 so far, gotten several boxes with junk in them, and a few I lost to being off by literally 1 digit (starting to make me want to ram my head against the wall).


Why does SE do stupid crap like this? The ring supposedly is only a 2% chance... and when you factor in all the time wasted farming the damn thing, well, it had better be worth it in the end.

I thought we were past this level of nonsense when we got Abyssea & the stagger system.

I think someone is just butthurt they can't find their prouesse ring.

I found mine on the first Colliery Bat kill.

Try farming another for a friend/mule/whatever and see if that luck holds up.

Yeah, stow the attitude. You and all the other dolts who brag about going 1/1 on things like Kraken Club aren't special - just lucky, and very, very annoying.

uh I tossed two of those prouesse rings, they are worthless lol.

[Karbuncle]

They're only worthless if you're capped on skill or think skilling up is fast enough (because hay, Going faster is stupid right?)

We still have 95 and 99 to skill up too as well, If you're like me and love capping worthless skills, This ring does help, especially with the new skill up foods, makes it a lot less of a chore in the long run.

this is maddening >_<;

And you going on and on and on about how UNlucky you are is NOT annoying, right? I beg to differ.

ITT: Two wrongs make a right

The people who've gone significantly long periods without a drop vastly outweigh those who go 1/1 or even find the item in an hour or two. While I may personally joke about how the game hates me and makes my luck suck because of it, there's no excuse for going 20 hours without the ring, 15 without Melaco Mittens, and even back in the day I spent a good 8 hours trying for Gothic Sabatons in BD. The drop rates suck, period.
