You just spent 2 hours trying to get a key to drop.

You obtain 8 cobalt arrows.

.....Really SE? I could understand if it was something significant like 200-300 cobalt arrows, but 8? What the hell were you thinking when you put arrows inside of the stronghold chests?

haha, i remember the first time i saw that . one member in our LS kept getting arrow drops.

This is for those hardcore players. Deal with it.

It has nothing to do with being hardcore vs casual, its just a ridiculously stupid drop to have inside a chest. As an archer I have never been sitting there thinking "If only I had 8 more arrows." Atleast all of the other drops are materiable, even if they are terrible pieces of gear.

Yah SE, you could have at least made the arrows +1, sheesh!!

dont worry in another 249 hours you'll have a full stack =)

That's what happens when a chest pulls from a pool rather than have set contents like back in the day.

It could be worse. It could be Dark Matter.




....damn you, Ifrit and Moogle.

Yeah I really hate the coffer system.

You have a percentage drop for getting the coffer key, and sometimes it just sucks. And when you finally get that key, there's another crappy drop rate for the item lol.

I was in a group and I opened the chest 10 times (not including the other times I went) and I finally got my mask. The next two people that were up for the key opened up the chest and got the mask on their first try. Boy SE, sometimes this game really makes me hate you >.>

I just went 1/54 on warlocks satchel belt over the course of 2 days. No room to complain, and I am not complaining about the drop rates on the items either. Yeah the drop rates suck and the key drop rates suck but atleast with crappy items you have a chance to get something decent out of them with the materia. With cobalt arrows its just a slap in the face though.
