Patch 2.5 Preliminary Notes Discussion

[Drako]

Why is the World of Darkness using the same loot lock system as previous CT and ST raids? Didn't Yoshi-p say at one of the fan fests they were looking at a different system for handling drops?

Q3: Will the rewards for the new chapter of Crystal Tower include the materials needed to enhance Ironworks equipment?

A3: We’ll introduce the upgrade items as loot, but they will be separate from the weekly reward since players were having trouble deciding which piece of loot that they wanted last time.

Ok so it seems the Poetics upgrade item will be seperate lootable drop. I hope its got some kind of a lockout though. The unlimited lockout doesn't seem to be working as intended in ST. Has anyone tried to get sands/oils sense they unlocked it? If your lucky you'll get one after maybe 5 runs. If your not lucky you'll wait 40 runs. It takes less time to teach people second coil, and farm that. Before the lockout it was easy to acquire. Maybe like 2-3 item lockout on it per week?

I'd much rather be allowed to grind WoD for the poetic upgrades until i get what I want rather than only be allowed the "chance" to loot 2 a week in coil. For people that PUG, the odds of looting those items suck compared to having arrangements with a static.
