Only Ifrit weapon my Legacy character has is the sword, which she was never able to use. >_>

People complain about Coil drops now. Just imagine if, after 20+ runs, the gear you want finally drops. . .straight into someone else's inventory, because there was no lot system in place.

The horror~!

Yes, melding also counts as RNG... not everything is centered around raids.

lol

though... if we still play 1.0 today, Yoshi might make Novus system like it is now.

Besides, there's already hell enough with the old 1.0 relic quests. Fail melding = all broken including gears. XD

that's no different now where you can clear the same content 27 times and see that same piece of gear never drop. the difference is now you have to wait 27 weeks to not get that piece.

how is this any different than seeing the piece you want drop and losing the lot on it?

personally, i cleared t5 100+ times and never got the allagan scepter. there is no difference in that and the way it was in 1.0. the only difference is that for the first 30 or so clears i had to wait a full week to clear it again.

It's mostly different for organized groups. In an organized static, once it drops you might have to roll against one other character, or everyone might pass to you. In 1.0 it just popped up in someone's inventory, assuming that it didn't hit the ground because they already had it. . .
