Instant-gratification, and the "Time Sink Here, Time Sink There" song. VERY LONG

[fusional]

I would understand the analogy if a goal had a 1% chance of scoring a point. Right now people are winning the fights and getting nothing at all.

i would understand your beef with the analogy if the actual drop rates were anywhere remotely close to 1%. but they're not.

and as far as people winning and not getting anything... so?

i logged 78 King Behemoth kills in my FFXI career. you can't farm KB every 30mins. it doesn't even pop every day. 1-1.5 times a week on average. in that time i only saw two Defending Rings drop. i didn't win the roll on either of them.

that's not to say this loot system should be like that. but it is to say: quit your bitching. you don't know pain. (and, as OP said: for those who DO get the defending ring, the elation is UNMATCHED)
