In 2-3 weeks of on and off farming I'm sure you'll see and win roll on at least 1 mirror. In the meantime you build animus for your main and farm soldiery for a wep for a 3rd class.

    Trouble is though that kind of grind can burn people out and result in them quitting, its kind of sad that we are seeing the same mistake they made in 1.0 with primals and RNG all over again.

    I agree that it should take time to upgrade the weapon but it goes back to people wanting to see progress and not RNG kicking them in the face repeatedly.

    That's the thing, you see actual progress when working on Animus, so only 1 part of the quest is "bad", the rest is exactly what people wanted. As said, this is a new patch, so the drop rate on Leviathan is obviously bad to keep us busy lol.

    You mean like before 2.2 when no one had anything to do and the servers were ghost towns?

    There are very few RNG factors in the game.

    This makes no sense. Everything in the game that drops loot is RNG based. My FC farmed coil for two weeks and all I saw drop, out of what I could have used to gear up, were brd earrings. And that was only twice out of two months of farming that damn instance. All primal weapon drops are RNG based, all armor out of chests is RNG based. Please, tell me what rewards we get that are not RNG based. Other than quest rewards.

    Nope, we don't get some of the best gear from getting tomes at all........ The rng is this game is pathetic, try doing coil once a week with an empty chest 90% of the time then start crying, until then keep thinking this game is bad because it took two weeks to get something instead of 1.

    Lose the sarcasm; Nobody said the game was bad. Kudos on finding something not based on RNG though.
