    Loot System for Savage

    Since the last tier, i started a thread that addressed the loot system for the Savage and took out my frustration on it. That hasn't changed for this tier either. (i know we are on 2nd week)

    The reason for this is how unfair it feels not to get any loot when you make the effort to clear it in PF.

    I know that a static is the easiest answer, but that's not always an option.

    Last tier the number of books that can be exchanged for the Savage items was reduced.

    That is sure a nice step to get faster to his bis, but in my opinion doesn't improve the unfairness of the loot system.

    What do you think? Should it stay as it is or should further adjustments be made?

    Stay as is. Look, this is just how it works - getting shafted and not getting the drop is part of the MMO lifestyle. But it makes the wins sweeter and keeps people engaged with the content.

    I have no problem with there being rare loot like songs or mounts or whatever, but it feels rough to do content and leave without anything to show for it. The more demanding the content, the worse it feels.

    At the very least, there should be a pity system of some sort, such that if you run X times, you'll be guaranteed your reward. That means that even if you get unlucky and need to re-run, you always know there's a light at the end of the tunnel. But when it's pure RNG, some people will statistically get woefully unlucky, and that possibility sucks.

    I'll give healer a try up until level 100. If I do not like it, I'm off the role, entirely.

    In general the whole gearing system needs to get pulled out of Burning Crusade and into 2024 with 21 jobs.

    You should only have to clear once per week to get a piece.

    I think it should be 1 piece guaranteed, tied to person, not party. That way you could also hop in and help people without needing an alt. Maybe even make it not per player but per role, so you would get a chance to gear multiple jobs at once.

    I would like to see gear role locked weekly instead of 1 per week period.
    If i want to bet the boss again to get DPS gear, let me. it'd also let me play with friends on an alt job without spending 400 hours on an alt

    Hey now, Burning Crusade at least had loot that wasn't just a stat stick, lol.
