I seriously hate the loot system for Crystal Tower.

You like how gear goes to waste that someone could use on one of their many alts that no one else wanted? Really? Back in my day, people loved being able to obtain gear that dropped, not see it fall to the floor because they don't want to risk not being able to lot on something else for a whole week.

I do think there should be some restriction on when you can get loot in Crystal Tower, but only getting one piece a week is over the top. I think people would be more inclined and open to casting lots on other gear if the restriction was lifted to 3-4 days instead of a whole week. Biggest problem to me overall is the fact that this great gear is dropping to the floor only because people have specific pieces they want first like the pants or body. I can't say I have an answer, but developers should make adjustments to justify loot being dropped to the floor.

I agree, the loot system needs some adjustments. Yesterday I ran a couple times to get my weekly healer piece, which I won against the other whm in my party. However, later in that run, I saw him win a greed roll on drg gloves and I asked if that was for his main (he was probably i60 gear average on his whm). Apparently, he had misclicked greed instead of pass, so he was stuck with drg gloves for the drg he didn’t have. Then, there’s my coil group’s sch who didn’t instantly leave the dungeon after the final boss and got stuck with a brd helm for the brd he doesn’t have.

That said, I’m not really sure what a good system would be that wasn’t really easy to game. It would either have to be some adjustment to loot being auto assigned, or they’d have to up the loot limit to 2-3 a week. Considering this game encourages you to have alts (I have three 50s that I’m gearing right now and I’ll have a fourth soon), maybe make it so you can only get one item per class per week?

.... Restraint?

[MichuAmane]

In case you were wondering.. Constraint:
a limitation or restriction.
"the availability of water is the main constraint on food production"
synonyms: restriction, limitation, curb, check, restraint, control, damper, rein;

Square Enix's policy of constraint of Ct loot is asinine.

.... Restraint?

either...

con·straint (kn-strnt)
n.
1. The threat or use of force to prevent, restrict, or dictate the action or thought of others.
2. The state of being restricted or confined within prescribed bounds: soon tired of the constraint of military life.
3. One that restricts, limits, or regulates; a check: ignored all moral constraints in his pursuit of success.
4. Embarrassed reserve or reticence; awkwardness: "All constraint had vanished between the two, and they began to talk" (Edith Wharton).

The good thing about CT lockout is that people won't abandon the content after they got all their armor after a few weeks.

And even with lockout is fun content that gives a decent amount of Phy and Myth stones.

But I guess ppl prefer to burn this content in 2 weeks and keep doing their boring SR WP speed runs over and over.

I agree with this!

I agree withyou agreeing with this because I agree with it!

Only real issue for me is that loot that isn't needed or greeded shouldn't fall into someones inventory that forgot to pass for whatever reasonand locking them off for the week. instead it should just go to waste.

But it's also just sad to see so much loot dropping to the floor.
