Why did they need to be phased out? Phil and myth?

They honestly just need to either remove the crafting mats from dungeon chests or reduce their chances of popping up drastically. With the fact that you can get them from GC seals and (even more easily) from Ixal trade-in, they really aren't as necessary to be found in dungeons as SE might think. In fact, with the lowered 4-man dungeon participation, the fact that servers can maintain usually high stock on them is proof of this. With the vast number of possible DL gear to be had, along with dungeon-specific drops mixed in, there's a lot of RNG involved just with that. For the people that don't want to own the gear they win, GC turn ins are currently available as well as Desynthesis... which is, if anyone has leveled it, a truly tragic tale of failures to gain skill ups or mats.

I always felt that boss chests should guarantee a darklight armor piece, where the side "optional" chests could be a toss up between accessories/armor/craft mats

Or do it like during 1.x
We need places to farm dark matter 5 again ^^

Nah brah whatever sol you have is converted to myth and added to what myth you already have enabling you to have above 2000 myth for a short time. Your sol gets reset to 0.

Every myth above 2000 would vanish

How is that, exactly? I wasn't able to play 1.x so I honestly have no idea

I hope they fix the drop rate soon. I am a ilv 101 DRG and I recently ran with a Noob Group who barely had the ilv to the new do Tam-Tamamra (Hard). We wiped at every boss and once during a mop pull. Everyone did there job fine but the Tank, Healer and DPS could have benefited to get some ilv 80 gear. As Far as MATs go the new beast tribe solved that with ignots.
