    I think maybe they were thinking because Ifrit's spawn rate is guaranteed... his drop rate should be low
    I personally LOVE probability in drop rates... Just about every RPG (MMO or otherwise) uses it
    That means that I have the potential to get something, every single battle
    Even if the drop rate is 1/1000000, You could get a drop your very first time.
    I think people have turned this into something else entirely...
    the drop rate is not the issue.... Drop rates have always been low for the best gear in RPG's
    The issues 2 are 1. that the weapons bypass the loot list... (Which I don't like, but some don't have an issue with)
    and 2. You are still eligible for weapons that you already possess....
    thats my biggest quam with the system...Weapons you already have should be removed from the ones you can possible get

    Yeah I don't hate the drop rate, I hate that you can't pass the weapon to someone who actually wants it... If people could pass I'd have like 4 weapons already ): But noooooooo... And yeah, a friend of mine got 5 bows already, LAME!
