    I'll be honest, I'm a casual. I work too dang much to get on nonstop farming mounts and such, but the amount of handholding in this game is getting ridiculous. With he content nerfs galore, I don't feel like i am accomplishing much at all anymore. Some of us casuals want challenging content, we want rares, but for the love of the twelve keep it rare and challenging.

    When did RNG became an accomplisment of YOUR DOING? Whenerver I see posting like these I loose faith in inteligence of humanity

    If the horse mount were made for killing primals in specific strategical ways, and those strategies were the test of your skill, then you had accomplished something. As of now its just a lottery with wining odds. So your accomplishemnt is the same as it was even if you didnt get the whistle, you killed the primal and thats it.

    You are saying farming a item that has a 1% drop rate isn't "something"? Please, let's see you go do it? Oh wait, no you'd rather ask SE to make it easier to get with a maximum cap of effort that has to be put in (rather than the luck of the draw).

    A person that's going to farm something with such a low drop rate has determination, determination to slog through the grind. If RNG wasn't an accomplishment, you wouldn't have a billion posts complaining that the Relic quest or Ponies are too hard to get.

    Maybe you should think first before insisting I'm unintelligent. I mentioned content nerfs in general. Though I may not have been very clear, I'm referencing primals and coil, and any dungeons they start reducing the difficulty on. I'm tired of not having difficult content because we get things like the Echo, and certain status effects and attacks weakened so we don't die as easily. The ilvl sync is set way too high for some of it as well. What SE should do is create content that doesn't suffer from nerfs. Constant difficulty and without such a freakishly high ilvl ceiling. This includes drops that remain rare drops.
