    While I think most of us agree it would be nice to get double the chests per boss down, it would inevitably kill the place twice as fast which isn\\'t in SE\\'s best interests. The idea behind getting one piece a week and having 4 chances to even see one per dungeon is specifically so you don\\'t just walk in and walk out. That doesn\\'t include those that bail when they don\\'t get the one piece they came for. It keeps us running through there to get what we\\'re looking for and that in turn spins the wheel that ensures people getting to the WoD portion of Crystal Tower later will still have a fair wait timer.

    It\\'s relative to every single thing you do in this game. SE purposely makes people go through the content lots so that the content won\\'t be dead for new players when they get there.
    And as it\\'s been stated before - soon enough the loot restrictions will be lifted on the place and you can go ham on trying to gear up your alts.

    The chests in the expert dungeons should also be doubled. I don't have seen the new ninja body, yet.

    It's funny... 2 chests per boss in expert dungeons, 2 on Coils, but 1 per alliance per bosses... funny eh?

    Expert dungeons drop gear and crafting materials, so you'd still get screwed over by RNG if you don't get the kind of gear you want.

    I don't think we need an additional chest for drop, more than we need a looting redesign. There's been so many runs where loot just sat and rot. What should be done is allow other groups to roll on another groups loot IF all of said group passed on that drop. Make the drops visible to everyone, just don't allow them to be rolled on until everyone's passed on it.

    Adjusted as in one chest has gear and another chest has materials. So you can't have a run that has ZERO gear drops like it was in the past, but it will never be a case where both chests are all mats or all gear.

    People keep mentioning unlocked WoD in a few weeks... What's the source on this? CT wasn't unlocked until the next big patch after release (so 2.2), and ST wasn't unlocked until 2.4. That means we'll probably have to wait until the next big patch for WoD to be unlocked. Maybe they'll do it with 2.55 or something since 3.0 is around the corner, but if they don't do it before 3.0, no one will be running it anyway unless the gear is still somehow relevant with the 10 level jump.

    I say only Carbontwine. They will add Carbontwine to WoD during 2.51 or 2.55. Don't expect the weekly lock getting unlocked before 3.0

    Only the second boss has ever had two chests. First boss got another one in 2.5 that always drops mats and I can't remember right now if the last got a chest added or if there's only one that drops two things.

    The net result is still a lot more forgiving RNG for dungeon gear farm.

    Yoshi-P is doing his best and is patching Endwalker. Please wait warmly until it is ready.
