Triad is more frustrating than fun

I enjoy the game itself, buy the low drop rates and restrictions on deck rarity make it frustrating to play. It would at least be tolerable if the quest icon didn't disappear until you get their card, not just beat them. I am been playing a person for over 2 hours, now I have to choose whether I want to keep playing and hope the card eventually drops, or just forget about it and probably never get the card cause I won't remember who it is. You somehow made one of the better mini games not fun.

You can check which cards missing by comparison, where to get them and what ones in game by sites like this.

As for drop rates, the RNG does suck sometimes.

A few NPCs are really frustrating, I agree, but for the most part it becomes less frustrating as you get more cards and can make a more powerful deck. But even then, you get those annoying Random rules when the NPC always gets a whole deck of Rank 3-5 cards (I'm looking at you, Landenel).

And ugh, the drop rates for the Heavensward cards are absolutely abysmal. I had to spend about a week in-game time due to the time restrictions on the NPC to get one particular card, and that's with me winning about 80% of the time.

However, despite the problems, I do enjoy it.
