Primal mounts and their effect on player health/sanity.

Increase a little the drop rate would be nice.

Well I think they will ease getting these in the future one way or another. They seem to do that with older content. Shiva is coming out not to far from now and that should be the last of these elemental mounts. So only time will tell. But I hope SE are done with this sort of thing for future content after Shiva. Would be funny if you can solo ex primals with ilvl going up all the time and level cap getting raised.

They were all easy, even the fallground float ixali log jump one. Only took a few tries but most of them i got on the first try.
Just like my nightmare mount on my first garuda ex kill.

Mmmmppphh!!

"sorry in advance for my bad english"

i feel really sad when i see most message in this thread, most people are "crying" because they cant get an "ultra rare item" but this "item" is suposed to be REALLY rare,
so yes its annoying to grind forever, i agree, but if you dont like it, nobody asked you to do it, right ?


its because most of you guys complain on absolutly everything on this game, its becoming "boring"
its because there is "challenge" that is fun

in real life are you gonna complain to the porsche maker because too expensive for you, and ask them to give you a special discount ?
no

its the same here
if your not happy with it just deal with it,

Primal mount ARE VERY RARE LOOT, dont expect to see it everywhere and to get a hand on it that easily !!


to the dev : please DONT change the drop rate !

thank you

I think it is mostly asking for a tangible expectation, RNG %- specially so low doesn't. Imo it is a relic of old games and shouldn't be the standard anymore.

It seems to me that people are not impressed with "luck" as a reason for excitement anymore. I'd sign that. Praying for stuff to happen sounds terrible to me.

(I agree if it is meant to be rare that it should have difficulty/tangible time lengthening systems to simulate rarity, but the % luck stuff is entirely superficial and unnecessary).

The thing is, if primal mounts were introduced as a really, really, really rare mount that sparks a random excitement climax, then it's fine. I agree that not everyone should have everything the game have to offer. However, if they were introduced as a meant of incentive to encourage more players to revisit EX primals, then I'm afraid I must say it's really off. It's like you put up an item for sale at $1,000. Nobody is buying it due to the price tag, then you give it a 1% discount and sell it at $990 instead. Do you seriously think it helps as an incentive to encourage people to purchase the item?

If the primal mounts is really meant as an incentive as Camate said, I propose for either:

A) Drop 8 mounts of the same type for the full party at the same 1% drop rate
B) Increase the drop rate to 5~10%, which is still a rather slim chance when you divide it by 8

Not gonna lie, I'm losing my sanity myself grinding Garuda Extreme 100+ times trying to get the Xanthos mount. The drop rate is ridiculous and you might not even have a chance to get it. I know it's like 1-2% but it should really be buffed to like 5% or 8% because this is just stupid. The Xanthos mount is what I want more than ANYTHING in this game, but Garuda just wont freakin drop it for me. I make a Garuda Ex Farm on PF on Gilgamesh everyday but there's no luck to getting these mounts.

Please fix them. I want my green glowing unicorn.

Above you can see perfect example of whining for not getting rare item and "need to fix it"

I used to be a collector just like you, til I took an arrow to the- I meant til they release the primal mounts. It's good that you're working hard for it, just don't drive yourself insane in the process alright?

Like I said, it is fine if the primal mounts is just another rare item. However if the purpose is to incentive players to re-visit EX primals, then it isn't performing it's intended function, or at least aren't effective enough. I'm posting my view on the topic from an objective point of view. Believe it or not, I don't bother farming EX primals for them, in fact I stop being a collector the moment SE release them. The only thing I still farm today are Ramuh EX aka "Lord of the Rings" for weapons (vanity/alt). Of course, that's up to you to decide if my words are bullshit or not.
