    This is seriously just a small grind. Besides, for players who might be busy or simply can't handle the torture by RNJesus, it's not as if there's entirely no alternative path to gear upgrade for them. There's tome gear, crafted gear and (eventually) 24-man raid gear.

    Of course if you have a wonderful suggestion that can lower the grinding yet keep enough people occupied, I'm all ears.
    No it isn't, that is basically admitting you can't make content then =/ this isn't the 1980s, come on now, things shouldn't be taking this long to do, esp when the development team said themselves it is not catered for those able to log in every day for 8+ hours at a time. You are basically saying it is a good thing people are not given enough time to do stuff in this game, and that isn't a good thing.

    Supporting an outdated system is not a way to get needed changes, I do not know if i can link it but Sequelitis - Castlevania 1 vs. Castlevania 2, @4:31 time stamp explains the issue well, not sure if i can link it here because of the cursing but ya .. this isn't 1980s anymore, no reason to time gate people so badly they can't do the content. I guess not playing at all for some is better for those that has too much time for this game.

    I know someone in my static who lost over 20 rolls on one of the primal birds and had to buy with 99 tokens. 99 runs seems fair and it is an end of the line goal at least instead of possibly ending up where RNG is just being downright cruel.
    It isn't faair though it takes too much time

    So this drop system is an oversight and needs to be addressed
    With Final Fantasy XIV our content is set up so that you can play in short time spans, logging in a little bit of time each day. Even if you take a break from the game, you can always come back and you still have a chance to catch up to those who are on the front lines. You can play very flexibly, so we believe that kind of system is not necessary.
