Except we don't... The chests as you put it we've had ether potions from with bosses dropping the tome items which as has been pointed out sell for less than a single mob killed givesSorry but it's working as intended I believe since those 3 new dungeons each have 2 chests spread out through the dungeon that give guaranteed Darklight.
In Brayflox hardmode there's 2 chest that give guaranteed Darklight gear, 1 is after the 1st boss up the ramp and the 2nd right after the 2nd boss to the left. That seems to also be the case in Lost City and Halatali HM as well.
So what exactly is the issue you are bringing up since you end up having on average 2-4 Darklight drops per run.
Crafting items should drop off side chests, and not boss chests.
No, there are indeed two chests in Brayflox that give Darklight EVERY time. I have never gotten something other than DL from those two chests. The one on the pillar structure after the first boss, and the one to the left after the second boss.
I've seen DL in the save chests in Brayflox but not always and rarely, the issue isn't even about side chests it's that bosses are regularly not dropping armor just vendor junk that sells less than killing a single mob would give thanks to the Mb being flooded with them
Except you don't what?
I hope you're not telling me that you're having issues taking 20 seconds to clear a pack of mobs to get to a chest that drops Darklight or having 1 person run up and click open those chests as they get back into the group.
If that's too much of a hassle just clear the dungeon multiple times and get ilvl 90 gear instead.
To me that is the point of mmos, farming for that one gear drop you want.
This game has both, either you could buy gear from tokens (Which I think is crap, but luckily there are drops too) or you could farm from dungeons or raids. But people on this forum are trying to make every single part of the game like they want it, instead of being satisfied with that they got one part of the game and the other group got the other part.
If you think it's fun to do dungeons to get tomestones and buy your gear do that! I Like doing dungeons for the loot rather than tomestones so I'm doing it my way.
Just getting tired cause there are always threads about drop rates being too low and stuff, but there are never threads about removing tome stones cause it makes it too easy to get good gear. I guess those who don't like tomes are fine with it cause there are other ways for us to do it
Please enlighten me with your arrogant attitude where I said I don't open chests, I said we did and they contained ether potions, I also in reply to someone else said on runs I've done I've seen DL drop but not always, and again I point out the post is about bosses not dropping anythingExcept you don't what?

Keep your arrogant attitude to yourself
What is it with the elitist toxic attitude of some players in these forums, if it doesn't affect them it's not a problem.
Arrogant? You seem to be adding attitude and tone to text. All I did was tell you that there's 2 chests per dungeon that are guaranteed Darklight drops. Yet all you care more about is gil issues.Please enlighten me with your arrogant attitude where I said I don't open chests, I said we did and they contained ether potions, I also in reply to someone else said on runs I've done I've seen DL drop but not always, and again I point out the post is about bosses not dropping anything
Keep your arrogant attitude to yourself
Here are the location for the two Darklight chests in Brayflox HM
The boss drop more than just gear since people had issue with bosses dropping nothing but gear in the previous level 50 dungeons and those pieces of gear becoming obsolete. With talks about crafters having benefits from those obsolete dungeons instead this model works for both.
If you don't want to spend the time of day to get those 2 pieces of chests in the 3 new dungeons. There's alternatives to helping yourself to better gear. Like farming myth.
Congratulations on running Brayflox so many times, I applaud you and would gladly give you a special cookie for it, I do know where the chests are and as I already pointed out which oddly you cannot seem to comprehend is that the thread is about the fact bosses are not dropping anything except under 100gil items, that's not working as intended, that's a major flaw, even in WP/AK days side chests contained crafting mats bosses dropped loot, having apt he gold chests drop nothing except cooking sherry of the water is almost like telling people don't run the dungeon just clear up to the chests (which I've seen a lot of ether and potions from) but congrats on winning the "I wish you were on my server so I could block you" award
