PLEASE CAP THE ZODIAC DROP RATE

The best weapon in the game is too hard to get

I hit 41 with Copperbell Hard. My FC legitimately thinks I was going crazy.

However, all dungeons added together I technically had a better drop rate than the 1/9 people believe it has. That's .11% and I have .19%. So while copperbell sucked my overall experience was above average. *Shrug*

There was a great sadness upon hearing they included low chance items. I think things should either be long grind, or random luck, not both. If you have to do a big quest with multiple requirements and items/currency needed, there shouldn't also be low chance RNG. I have 2 zodiac weapons myself, but I feel for people who are still struggling.

79 dungeons overall to complete my Zeta, in the grand scheme of things for a top tier weapon I'm not going to complain too much.

RNG is RNG, sometimes it sucks, and sometimes it gives you those 3 drops in a row and you squeal like a 5 year old girl at your good fortune before it's taken away from you and you do another 20 runs of satasha HM.

I agree. I was pretty lucky (most mine took was WP at 16 runs, all items took 66 total) but over 50 on a single dungeon is crazy...

Yup I ran Satasha hard for 20 hrs straight (as a tank) for my final piece. It almost made me quit. I understand that I did not need to run it that long and probably did more damage then good but, it was my last piece and I was being stubborn. In the end though I think the rng should be removed and replaced with a set amount of runs or what ever. For example run sastasha 5 times or what ever number you want to put in.

At least it was a easy dungeon. Like you I got stuck on a easier one as well. I did Lost City 45 times. It was extremely frustrating. Like I said in other threads. I don't mind grind. Tell me to go do dungeons 30 times, and I'll do it. But RNG, never knowing where I am in the process, is very discouraging. Also it isn't fair at all, that some people like many people in my FC, got all there's in 1-5 runs. When I have to sit here much much longer for the exact same reward. That makes no sense at all. If we are going to make a difficult grind for one of the best weapons, can we at least make it equal for everyone?

With each new step, SE seem to succeed at making the community hate certain content.

That about covers everything in this game. SE have successfully made anyone doing the Relic quest line (especially the unlucky ones) loathe pretty much the entire game.

I am sure you know this, but still... Every update, a previous step becomes easier. I'm sure the drop rate will go up drastically soon enough. It is without a doubt the next step after the increased Light bonus. And remember you will be rewarded with a very easy phase after that (40 minutes x 12 Mahatma).

I have done 30 Aurum Vale's for my Relic item drop. Yes, it made me go crazy at the time. It can take up to 50 minutes and you don't have all your skills yet (lvl 49 cap), making big pulls impossible. Time-wise, that's worse than 50 Haukke Manors (which usually take 15 to 20 minutes). xD My friends had Aurum Vale after approximately three times. But I know some of them got stuck in Brayflox, Copperbell or Pharos Sirius instead. I don't think anybody had a near-perfect Zodiac grind. ^^;

But it is so rewarding when you finally get that drop. People know you "worked" hard for it. It is a challenging way of getting a high-level weapon that requires dedication (while easy and good alternatives are Shiva Extreme or the IronWorks i130 weapon).
