    Completed ifrit 41 times so far and still haven't even see a bow drop. Countless times a weapon drops for a job nobody is on. 0.8% chance that I shouldn't have seen a bow by now if my math is right? RNG needs to better..clearly isn't working too well. On average I should've seen 4.5 or so bows by now?

    Even more bad luck, updated original post to add even more runs that no spear has dropped.

    Go for the relic. I know it sucks to hear, but RNG in this game is really bad atm, thankfully they've made relics at least remove part of the gear you need to roll the dice for.

    No sword dropped in my case after around 30 odds runs but i've seen around 4 spears 3 fists 2 cudgels 3 bows 1 cane 4 axes and the rest being chiefly summoner/scholar weapons...

    I do think that the drops are random and not getting one's loot can be attributed to just bad luck =\

    The people in the party will be pissed to have one without a primal weapon on Titan.

    But yeah, blame SE.

    I see this a lot in games that use RNG for loot distribution.

    The problem here is not the system but people's understanding of statistics, and how probability isn't a certainty but rather an estimate, influenced by numerous variables (controlled or otherwise).

    In a nutshell; the theory of the relative frequency of a probability (%) suggests that the probability (%) of a given event occurring (i.e. your loot dropping) is 'more likely' to occur the the more often said event is attempted.

    In Laymens terms; it's random. The more you try the 'more likely' you are to see the event occur but there is by no means a guarantee. As some have pointed out this is why token systems have become the choice of more and more MMO's these days. It's guaranteed i.e. 100% likely you will get your loot.

    And really there is nothing SE can do about it.

    Not really, but i dont cry because i dont get my weopons after 5 fights. I can wait and if i never get it how cares, maybe i will get titan weapon befor i get garuda.
    But its always the same the game is 3 weeks old and you guys cry about loot allready, and if dont get it after 50 or 60 trys i will just craft a weapon or the could get the relict, because thats item is 100 % optainable.

    But its easier to cry than work for your gear right? MMO's where smaller back than but the communities weren't little crybabies. If you dont like it just leave there are enough MMO's out there with token systems.
