Why is Coil so Cruel?

Learn to move on. I haven't receive any BRD loots for 8 striaght weeks. No threads created here just to say this lol.

Yeah but...you have upgraded Rosenbogen, High Allagan belt, gloves, boots and bracelet, upgraded Bard chest with Sands, three upgrades accessories with Oils and Slaying earrings for an alt. You're hardly starved of gear lol. If you had been clearing it since release and had yet to get a single piece maybe you could understand how OP is feeling. Being i110 or not far off, you can't really see where they are coming from.

I know that feeling. Just that I had better luck in SCoB. In the first coil, although Myth was largely king for BRD but the Allagan Visor (T2, debatable BiS), Allagan Boots (T4), Allagan Choker (T4), Allagan Pants (T5) and Allagan Bow (T5) were my BiS. I only received my boots in December 2013, my choker in Feb 2014 and my Bow the very week right before patch 2.2. Nope I didn't get my visor nor the pants (I have to craft the i90 and pentameld it myself during 2.2 launch). Apart from the choker and boots, the other thing I got is the glove, so you can't say I geared up via coil. My ilvl went past i80 only in patch 2.1 because of increased myth and also EX primal accessory drops. I geared up largely via Myth, and you know Myth was a pain to get in 2.0 days.. I guess that's bad enough luck per se.

She/he still had no drops 8 weeks in, its not about what they have NOW but how they dealt with it when it was happening to them. I was in the same boat, 8-9 weeks of SCOB clears and only 1 piece dropped which was a non bis accessory. It was a pain but I stayed patient until my luck started to get better with drops. Pretty sure once OP gets his it will change his mind completely. Just because you(collective) are not getting your way with drops doesn't mean the game should changed based on your experience, its a selfish outlook.
