I feel this pain.

20 lol. So little. I had 49 before a single tank drop. Pre-buff atMA was a 600 fate dry streak. don't even get me started on zodiac drops. 20 is such a small number.

but seriously smth has to be done about stuff like that.. i've beaten wod 20 times
x4 bosses each run is 80 bosses which none dropped a single tank loot... no this is not rng!!

P.S: 21st and counting

Rolling one 4 times in a row is just as much rng as that.

As much as one run being brd drops in every chest.

Sorry, but you just aren't lucky. karma can be a bitch sometimes.

It is rng, that's exactly what rng is. My problem with this post is that it doesn't even suggest anything, it's just somebody whining. At least other threads throw out some kind of suggestion, no matter how bad/good. This is what I see: look at me, I did this a lot, and I just want you to know that this makes me sad

They've already stated that 3.0 will have a "revamped" loot system, making another thread with your amount of runs won't make it get here faster

I ran all CT raids about 6 times each with no bard drops a few weeks ago - still havent seen one yet come to think of it. Sucks but think of the upswing on that RNG youll have.....eventually.....theoretically...

i tell you how this "revamped" loot system will work :

you now can choose any item from a boss loottable once you beat it (everyone gets thier own loot choice aswell). you then select an item and then you HAVE TO ROLL THE DICE. if you dont roll a 100 you get nothing. that still counts as REVAMPED. arent you thankful? :D

True pain is when the only item you want is the tank chest, it only drops from the last boss, and you get very few in progress queues.

I've felt this pain.

You do not want to feel this pain.

God forbid you have to work for it and then get loot. MMO's now are all "I want it and i want it now!". Honestly i just enjoy the journey and then when the loot finally drops there is that nervousness of getting a bad roll and when you roll high and loot it that feels awesome.

I feel like players in this game are too entitled and whiny. God knows what they'll change the loot system to i guess everything will be made easier to shut people up and we can all farm tokens forever.

Hell I've been in raid statics in games where loot distribution is decided beforehand and i see something i need drop but another person is on the list before me so they get it. I was just happy for them since we were all in it together struggling and banging our heads against the wall playing to learn raids and get loot. Lot of other people in raids sometimes it's just their turn and you need to wait yours.

I mean.

There is a significant difference between doing different, difficult tasks to obtain X reward, and doing the same, easy dungeon over and over until the reward happens to finally drop whenever it decides to.

You're right though, it is work. In a video game. Uh.

Correct. No half decent video game is going to hand you a permanent upgrade to your class without some sort of expense on your part.

First dungeon chest: oh hey, 8 drops, and they are the same 8 versions my 8 party members need. Now I will never have a reason to run this dungeon again. Uh.

Welcome to the No gear club. I been trying for the caster robe for over 4 weeks (i do a few wod runs per night) and ALL that ever drops is bard or Ninja gear.
Last week it was it was Bard, Monk gear and it has been 3 weeks now i get no gear from wod. Rng is a real ___
Honestly if wod gear was meant as a filler until one gets better gear it is a big fail, i now have the augmented robe for blm so .... yeah
Heck now i just run wod for the weekly quest, it is enough having to deal with horrible players and to spam it in hopes of 0.000001% gear may drop, not worth the agrevation.

Your proof?

without legitimate proof, don't make claims to know anything.

That argument would hold water if you weren't running the exact same easy dungeon, with no difference other than party comp, over.. and over.. and over.. and over for that one piece of loot that you don't even really need outside of vanity. Coil, of course, is different as it gives you the highest tier loot... but then they gate it by a weekly lockout, and RNG... so it becomes a difficult dungeon you can do once a week for the chance at maybe getting better gear. There is a reason they're changing that system, y'know. :V

mate in case you didnt get it : that was a meant to be a joke^^

nobody knows yet whats gonna happen all yoschi said was that he CONSIDERS to do SOMETHING. all i take for myself is : if they dont reduce RNG on weekly loot i am done -.- playing coil is getting frustrating when your gear is never showing up.

It somehow knows how to screw us individually in our own ways. I went for weeks with no DRG gear dropping, and saw tank sets drop over and over. Ended up getting caster robe and shoes for my SMN and BLM instead via Greed so I wouldn't miss my weekly allotment.

At 20 runs in it would have been faster to learn how to do T13 and get the relatively common chest from there (1/7 drop rate).

They are experts in making me flip tables.

Strange on how the drops for your class doesn't drop, and gear drops for everything outside of the class you que the raid for drops abundantly. I've been running WoD for caster gear, and they rarely dropped, or of course, I roll less than 30 and the over-geared fashionista wins it. After that, I gave up and decided to run as ninja to get ninja gear. and low and behold, caster gear started raining for all those casters with no caster in party and not a single ninja gear dropped. Sometimes I feel the drop rate of gear for your class gets lowered, just so you will run the dungeon more often, therefore making you subscribe longer. It makes me think that if it was fair ground, I wouldn't be so bitter about the RNG system and not notice how so many other people were able to nab 2-3 gears (because this happened to a newbie tank in my last party) because for some reason, RNG is like a bed of roses to them.

They probably also got a Mercedes from mom and dad at the age of 14, gets a new car every year for free, goes travelling to another country to party twice a year, live in a penthouse they don't pay for, and gets a $1000/week, not working a day in their lives.

I know this pain, except for MNK gear. It rarely drops in there, and I only need the MNK hat really.

I've been running WoD like mad lately and even on Need rolls I always seem to get out-rolled +sigh

Rolled a 98 Need on some Nin boots, got beat by a 99 on some Nin who didn't even have a poison up.

I got kicked for rolling Need on the healer boots while I was on my WHM because I wanted them for glamor and for my retainer and that was apparently "horribly unfair" even though the other healer didn't want them at all.

Heh, I've been after the tank chest since WoD day one and I haven't seen it drop yet. I wouldn't be so annoyed if it wasn't for the fact that half of my WoD runs make me emotionally unstable. When I'm ranked #8 DPS as a VIT-spec WAR something is very wrong.

I already gave it up to get this piece after weeks of pure WoD grind. I think its easier to get the coil body. lol

After around 10 lost rolls, got the Coil tank body yesterday. Still not seen a single tank body in WoD since my last post.

I've seen the tank chest drop once, and unfortunately that time I was on SCH instead of WAR. Was quite annoyed. >_> I don't really do WoD anymore, FCoB farming is so easy now that it's much more worthwhile.

I'm at 5/6 WOD drops on my PHD and I only dinged 50 on Saturday. Got like three drops in my first two runs, but the damn gloves just refuse to drop (I'm still using my AF gloves in the absence of anything else dropping anywhere...)

It's the same on my DRG, I was 5/6 in the space of a week or so, still never seen the belt though, and it drops from Cloud so it's one of the most annoying drops to try and farm...

PLD, not PHD. Stupid phone, stupid mobile client that won't let me edit...

All I see are Tank Monk and Nin drops. I need Brd/Sch/Drg. So it's all a conspiracy by SE to not get you the gear you want.

I think it's because tank doesnt have competitors when rolling need in WOD, so they lower the drop rate.

Maybe. But the healer gloves I've seen only once too. And I'm still happy that I clicked on need.

Praise the RNG! \o/

WoD loot for me: I almost never get drops for the job I'm on, lose greed rolls for gear I roll greed on, or the item that drops is one I already have. I still need at least two pieces for each job but I have not had any luck getting them. At least for healer and caster I just want the gear for glamour. Most of it would be upgrades for my other jobs though.
