0.01 drop rates need to die in a fire

[Alhanelem]

No I am happy for those members of my shell that do have the body pieces and not everyone on the server having them. If this game is going to have any good endgame gear or content (which is gear that sperates that dedicated shells from the socials) then SE has 2 options. 1.) Loot system as current with dungeons or 2.) A mob with 2-3% DR that pops once a day in a predefined area or roaming that cannot be killed by your average pug or social shell. I want gear that when I get it or a member who represents the shell I am in gets it that it wasnt easy to get. I first was estatic when we got our first few Garuda drops several hrs after the path. It ment something because we had beaten her and no other ls on our server did. But then 2 days later a cheese strat comes out and 70% of the people are walking around with them. You cant have your cake and eat it too.

TL;DR: "We got all our stuff via our non-lives and its not fair if it gets fixed now that we're done with it already"

How does less horrible drop rates take anything whatosever away from your "we beat garuda first!" achievement? Answer: It doesn't. We aren't asking to have our cake and eat it too. We're asking for things to be balanced and reasonable. Having to run a dungeon or battle 20 times a day to get anything more than dark matter is NOT "reasonable" in any sense of the word.

Why should you even care what other people get how? You beat it first! good for you! You can live the rest of your life knowing that you did something before somebody else. Balance adjustments can and do get made, and it's essentially impossible to protect everything that came before the balance change in doing so. Say PvP comes out tomorrow, and I discover a way to kick everyone's butts. A week later, someone else finds a "cheez strat" to counter mine. Another week later, the system is rebalanced, "cheez' is fixed, and yada yada. Should I be complaining because I can't do what I did before the balance fixes? Should the other guy be complaining that he can't "Cheez" it? Or should both sides simply accept that change happens, store their accomplisments in their memories and move on?
