Do we really need so many crafting drops in HM Dungeons?

SE did answer about this subject once. They are planing to remove the crafting materials from the boss chests, but honestly I'm not sure you'll like the result of this.
Those materials sell for 10-15k each on my server (aside from a few exceptions) and I can already see their price raise once they are removed from chests.

Why? Because those are at the core of our current crafting tool set. Vanya/darksteel ingot/rose gold ingot/hard leather are basically used for about everything worth it. The result of such change will be to further empower the crafters who bothered leveling their desynthing skills. Yes, they'll desynth dungeon armors to obtain those rather easily, while you'll have to get 3*9 pieces of armors to get ONE of the base materials from GC seals trading. Imagine the grind.

If you support such a change, do not complain about how crafters have all the money and how it's a pain to get materias for your novus. Stop making the game harder for yourself with inconsiderate requests.

Don't you think you're coming at her a bit hard? I mean really? For those non crafters, it's not a terrible thing to wonder about. Why not just simply add a second loot table for crafting items and one for the gear?

They already do that in Syrcus tower where the Onion Knight is concerned. Wouldn't be so hard to just have crafting materials drop like that too. Also, she never once mentioned anything about Crafters having all the money or even working on her Novus. YOU brought that up.

Cut her some slack, she wasn't complaining about any of that. She just commented on how you can do run after run after run and not see a single thing drop but crafting materials. Wasn't an inconsiderate request at all.

BobbinT, I'm not advocating the complete removal of the crafting materials... Where in my post did I say "I WANT THE CRAFTING MATERIALS REMOVED COMPLETELY!!"? I don't think I said that, nor did I imply that. If it came across that way, then I do apologise as that was not my intent. All I was wondering was if the drop rate for the gear could be raised at least... to make it so it's not such of a bugbear to try and get a specific piece one is after. Just seems a waste of time for someone to continually run and run a dungeon... and rather disheartening to see nothing but crafting materials drop after each boss... run after run.

Jingai, precisely.

I apology if my post seems a bit harsh. That wasn't my intent.

I'm just slightly annoyed at the current trend in this forum when it comes to crafting when I keep seeing threads about requests that WILL make the game harder than currently.
There's apparently an person who monitors the economy in SE's team. He fixed the situation concerning the brooms used for chocobo stables, while admitting it was his mistake. Just let him do his work and give him the benefit of the doubt.
