Early to Rise hairstyle drop rate

[Rein_eon_Osborne]

174th run.
So far only 1 mount & no hairstyle.

Meanwhile my FCmate who's just as 'insane' as I am: 3 mounts and 2 hairstyles---apparently they had ran roughly the same amount of times. We used our relic weapon progresses to keep track on our number of runs. They joked about how I'll probably won't be seeing the hairstyle unless I finish all 17 relics grind, and now suddenly it doesn't sound so far fetched at all. Heck I won't be surprised if I don't win any at all.

That's RNG for ya'.

I also joined the 'gave up and bought it' club.

The price has been stagnant for weeks, and DR is getting worse and slower. I was worried the price would start going up more.

I'm almost glad I bought it at like 8 million flat, who knows how high this hair is going to settle at eventually..

Yeah, and with you having that many runs, I'd guess you will be done with the relic grind sooner than later - and so will others. With no real reason for players to step in DR, the queue times are going to get longer and longer, and the item rarer and rarer... and yep! BAD RNG!

One of my friends got 2 mounts and 4 hairstyles in 31 runs. I have done 56 runs and only got the chocobo barding (my friend took pity and gave me the hairstyle). Some are just more lucky than others it seems.

A friend gave me a huge discount on the hairstyle drop so I finally got mine. But my god, the droprate is atrocious. The lack of bad luck protection is insulting. And the fact they don't let you save up silver coins for the hair and mount at least is stupid as all hell.

It's not fun to worry about losing resources and re-grinding them to make faster runs and not make a single step towards getting the hairstyle. Everything to make delubrum faster or easier is less time fighting the rng and brute-forcing it. At the very least let us buy it with silver coins, my god. I've had better luck grinding Castrum Abania for the godforsaken katana, Kotetsu, and getting multiple duplicates of everything else before I finally got it.

I get rng and stuff, but the fact that Delubrum rewards are drops only and going to eventually become impossible to get due to the fact Delubrum is content with an expiration date, unless you get into preorganized runs that probably wont jive with your time, is frustrating.

Just. Bleh. There's my after-work rant on the lack of bad luck protection coupled with an abysmally low drop-rate on cosmetics that, frankly, I'm getting tired of being put in absolutely random nowhere places like the pyros hair and lockboxes...

I reached 60 runs (4 relics) a while back. 0 bardings, hairstyles or mounts. I won't be going back in for them, I put the best essences and actions into every run, lost a few hundred thousand mettle from getting tankbusters to the face whenever the tanks died and while I enjoy DR as a concept, the fact that players are practically discouraged to use essence/actions because they need to be farmed/bought and the sheer length of the raid for no other real reward besides a relic token, means it just isn't worth the time investment.

I had fun in there, but the rewards might as well not exist.

[Wolwosh]

I've done 60 runs and I've gotten nothing. Not a mount barding or hairstyle >_<

[Vaern]

Had nothing for my first 60+ runs, then managed to get the hairstyle and the mount in 3 runs on the same day.
Someone sent me a screenshot where they got both at the same time in ONE single chest.
RNG is RNG, you're way better off farming gil and buying those than hope to get them. They're like a bonus as of now because you can't grind for them, except griding gils to buy them.

The only issue with that is how some people can buy out an entire stock and resell for an absurd price. When the price of the hairstyle was finally starting to drop. Someone bought all of them and tried to resell them at an absurdly inflated price..which promptly restarted everything.

Such is a player driven free market.

At least with bunny farming you're still earning gil as a consolation prize from the chests for 10k/25k/100k with the chance of earning a high value mount (or minion in Pagos's case) to sell on the marketboard or party finder, as well as accumulating logograms for later use.
Unless you're actively going into Bozja to farm lost actions as well as farming DR for the slim chance of obtaining it's mount/minion, you're probably losing more gil than you gain by going in again and again, especially since you lose lost essences once you step outside the instance. And it doesn't help that you might not even get the action/essence you want due to appraisal rng. It's just a vicious cycle at that point, and one that I refuse to fall into.
