Monk and Dragoon Drops In Crystal Tower....

[Farrell]

This is honestly absurd and really needs to be looked at. I had to run about 25 CT runs last week to get a single piece of healing gear, and this week I have ran five so far and only seen one tank piece and zero healing pieces. It's a complete joke that the two melee classes has a 90% drop chance on every boss in the place. If nothing Else why mot make a boss drop all the healer stuff, one drop tank, and the other two split dps drops. I mean that way you could see a healer item in under 30 hours...

I'm so sick of CT that I will opt out after the first two bosses if I don't get the item I'm looking for. I would literally much rather stare at the 30 minute ban timer than do a full ct run at this point. When CT first came out I had a major problem with bard gear dropping at every single, now it's always either dragoon or bard with monk at a close third. I've done nine runs this week and so far I've been able to predict which class' item will drop from each chest, because it's always dragoon from the first two chests, bard from the third, and I don't even look at the last chest, I just leave because I know the items I'm looking for don't drop from it.I've done well over a hundred CT runs since the dungeon was released and I've gotten five pieces of gear out of it. At this point I honestly hope the dev who thought making you run the same dungeon 20 times a week for a chance at getting one drop gets fired, or the team of devs if that's the case. There's a fine line between extending the life of a game by adding grinding, and making the players want to quit because they're sick of grinding for no reward. Some might argue "you get myth tomes" but you only get myth tomes for the first nine runs, it took me twenty eight to get my pants. "You get philo tomes" I don't need philo tomes, I can't use them to get any better gear than what I've got and half the time I end up wasting them on pointless entertainment. What I do get out of CT is a nice repair bill and the desire to quit the game because I'm sick of being able to predict what items are going to drop and knowing they're not items I can even use.

Took me about 15 runs for my fuma feet.

I finally got Bard body after I gave up on Bard body. Skipped like 3 weeks looking specifically for BLM or BRD body. Now that I want BLM or MNK body... "Oh look at what I just got"

[YunieAura]

Haven't seen MNK chest drop. Ever.

I seriously only see tank and healer loot in CT nonstop. RNG is RNG.

This is why I don't look for only a specific piece of gear. There is a 1/36 chance that you will get it per boss and you piece only drops from a specific boss. Therefore if you run CT not knowing which boss it comes from then its a 1/144 chance of getting what you want. Since i don't know where every piece come from, i run CT twice to try and get my most desired item. after that i increase it to gear from 3 different classes. i cut out the pieces i already have and the one next one that i plan on getting myth for. other than that i leave it open since my Mains(both Tanks) are i87.All i need for them is two allagan accessories. my alt(monk) is getting myth now, so BLM, WHM, and DRG are getting CT gear. Being open like this makes things less frustrating. This is an MMO and getting max gear lvl in this game takes a fraction of the time and grinding that most MMOs do. Ask anyone who played FFXI.
The RNG affects ppl differently. For me, all i saw was bard and blm gear(until i wanted it) now i see tank gear all the time.
You need to be patient and be thankful that you can even get that kind of gear this early in the game. Especially your relic. Prior FF games took a year+ to get a relic. It took my best friend 6 years to get one in FFXI.... so yeah, complaining in this game will get you no sympathy from the devs.

I ran once this week. tank hand/feet/body, healer body
I normally dont try to run too many CT for a certain drop. RNG sucks, just try to get a piece per week.

Sorry but i have to tell you its comletly random for anyone ive talked to yet. Bards cry that in "50 runs not one Bard drop" while the Healers cry (today i had to do 25 CT runs to get my healer drop". At the same time the tanks cry and the Monks too. Im am one of that mentioned Dragoons and had to do many (around 15) to see one single Dragoon item drop. For me its always Monk and Healer that drops. Monk in the first 2 chests and Healer & THM in the lasts.

You can see that everyone has his own sight here... If you count 1000 runs you will see its not that spread imo. Its the human brain that tricks one into thinking like this. We all are prey to this...
