    they addressed the bad rng in raids by introducing "pages" so even if you don't get your drop you will get it in the long run. Why wasn't this implemented in pony farming is probably just to keep people subbed longer. However I'm nearing my wits end as I don't raid anymore, pvp is just another glamour farm (no ranks for gear) with ridiculous rng and reward gates and progression is still stuck to people in statics as PF has proven to be unreliable. Sorry if I sound cynical but after seeing 4 birds and not rolling above 30 really has taken a toll on me. Don't my skills and player enjoyment count for anything or is monetization of subs more important?

    If I knew there was a token system for the birds I can at least enjoy at my pace rather than deal with the frustration of not unpredictable results.

    I approve of this idea, as someone else said:

    Because the intent is to keep people queuing for that content. They like to think people will use the DF more than they do. Granted, it is quite popular in JP.
