DARKLIGHT GEARS ; ;

I just kind of view this as the "race for gear" concept. Everyone wants it NOW and it can be frustrating to constantly repeat something for no return. But, at the same time, what else is there to do? Most of us are stretching to play the game for more than a couple hours at a time. I'm not complaining but the game is going to lose even more people from lack of content than lack of drops. If anything, this is another irritating timesink but oh wells.

I think this "lack of drops" complaint is a form of "lack of content" though....
there is very little content... so to make gear harder to get, SE has to lower the drop rates to force you to keep repeating the same content over and over....

Yeah, I'm with everyone on that. I just think a part of the "bigger picture" is that we (sadly) need timesinks. A small percentage of the population will quit over the crappy droprates. A significantly larger percentage will quit if they run out of junk to do. It isn't fun, it certainly isn't ideal, but it might be necessary.

Honestly... if there were a million and one things to do in this game... then the DL drop rates would be higher because they wouldn't expect people to put that much time into one dungeon... and thats what has people ticked off
You are punishing players because YOU failed to add enough content to please the playerbase and keep them busy

Yup. This is entirely a function of content - I don't think anyone can disagree. It sure is irritating but I think we're stuck with it whether we like it or not.

Thats probably true
