I do not care if it is rare. I would still pass it and run CT 100 times per week to get the Sand/oil.

I expect the sands/oil to be like the crafting fragment for the current Crystal Tower. Roughly 10% chance the last boss will drop it and then you have to roll against everyone for it.

It'll be like YOU can get it but you have a very low chance of doing so.

Crafting blade fragment is also lotting against 23 other players, so to make sands like that hahaha that's just really cruel. There's many things they can do to balance drops we will have to look forward to it.

You know its gonna have a loot lock right. only 1 item per week just like ct1. whether its sand/oil/gear it probably wont matter

I don't think Sand/Oil are going to be a super rare drop. And I also don't think the new CT gear will be lower than ilvl105. But I do know that we'll only be able to obtain either 1 piece of gear or 1 upgrade piece per week.


I hope the ilvl requirement for the new CT is higher than 80, I think that would help with people trolling.

Well, it became true. I'm kinda happy that I will be able to farm sands/oils but it's not going to be as cool as people think.

You think trolls in CT are bad now...

Currently you can go farm 2nd coil and get one sand/oil and if your static is especially good, 2 of each. All of this in maybe just maybe one or two nights tops. Now, put those same people PLUS people who only farm dungeons at best, together... and make them farm CT2 endlessly. Have any of you been to vegas and seen the slot machines? If sand/oil drops are random, expect to see people endlessly queuing for CT2. Not everyone will do that but, those will be the people that us "average" people have to deal with when playing the new CT.

Heads are gonna butt :/

If a sand/oil *does* happen to drop, expect much unhappiness to play out in party/alliance chat.... lol

Oh and of course, it's bound to happen, expect those very sad people to try to buy you out of the rolling for sand/oil with gil.... Despite the fact that they can't trade with you... lol

i dont see the sand/oil being a problem because ct2 will most likely be similar to the first one in that you have to have a full party. at least for a couple of weeks i would imagine.
as for the buying out via gil, if both parties agree to that, and one doesnt hold to the agreement, GM action can be taken if one goes that route.

I think my point is, they can't do that... Can't trade while in a duty. Also, can't trade cross server, even if duty trade was possible. But people will try... That's why it's sad. :(

why would SE make it so that sand/oil drop randomly to one alliance? so, no, it wont be a problem. each group has their own loot pool.

You can be placed in parties with people from cross-server...

Not saying anything about what alliance it drops to. Nor am I talking about quantity that will drop or anything of the sort. Just talking about people's behaviors.

Nevermind lol... it's not important... Just was making a small point as to the nonsense that people will probably deal with in CT2. Obviously we aren't doing it yet. Even if I'm right, I don't win a cookie.

Expressing a small thing like this on a forum and being misunderstood is my fault... But if this so easily happens... Just imagine all the miscommunication that will happen in the new CT2 over this very desirable loot, as well as potential arguments...
