Raid loot and 3.0

I have no idea if a topic like this was already made but Please SE add a token system or something so even if you run a Raid 30 times you get something out of it the drop tables honestly feel one sided most of the time :(

Tomestones?

lol right? I guess guaranteed carboncoats/twines/tomestones aren't good enough either.

I'm talking about Raid/ Alexander loot rng and with a weekly lockout how frustrating it will be...

Countless threads and many complaints Already exist. They've already made a statement about "revamping the loot system" in 3.0

And no, it's not an issue about guaranteed anything, you still have to run the content more than enough times, but it won't be the crap rng system it is now. 3 days of t7 farming for whm coat, 49 runs of wod for tank chest, there's a thread of over 60 runs of t9 and no spear dropping. The current loot system is too cruel. It's not a "great feeling of accomplishment"(as was once stated by a player on these forums), but relief that we don't have to waste more time on trying to farm something.

So, yes, loot issue has been addressed, although it might not be completely fixed

Personally I hope they leave the rng in place but modify it so that it only drops gear for jobs in your party. I find that the i130 poetics gear is a good compromise already and the upgrade items that drop from raids further that point. I don't want to have to farm multiple currencies myself, 2 is enough already.

Ahh ok was unsure how many topics had been made but i'm glad they will revamp the loot system hopefully something Where you don't run T9 60 times... That's pure evil and unnecessary i feel maybe something like shivas dust drops or the antique armor from snow cloak would do?

A change is a change. Requiring 10 tokens for a piece of gear would be no different than what we do now, in essence, you're still farming the content, it's not hard to keep track of another if it's based on a weekly cap of 1 per turn.

A simple solution might be give everyone in coil like Raids one chest each that chest drops a piece of gear from that turn for your class there would still be rng and people might get get bent over by rng for months on end

I really hope they just open a window everytime you beat something and let you pick any 3 items you want, then you wouldn't have to play this really unfun game more than once to get gear to play even more unfun stuff!

The sarcasm is real lol >_>

Ya i guess my post was a little mean spirited, but at the end of the day people should realize if your trying to get one specific item its probably going to take a while. If they made everything like primal focus, where u get a guaranteed item every time you beat a turn in final coil and turn in the 4 items to get a dreadwyrm wpn of your choice, wouldnt that be a litte bit TOO easy? 1 hour of playing for each wpn?

That's exactly what BiS is though. Sure, I have placeholder gear for until I get what I want, but no matter what, I'm gonna be hoping that my item drops.even just a party recognition feature would be nice. My first 10 kill was a 1 chest. We had no bard, want to know what dropped? The bard belt, and none of us even had a 50 bard. Loot system right now is broken. Any fix, no matter how small would improve it.

I understand we cant just get a loot drop every time we run coil wod/ whatever but right now the loot system is broken maybe a better solution would be the loot table changes based off the jobs in the group seems fair that way if you don't have a monk that type of loot won't drop
