    while true its also false. if you take something as simple and laborious as farming totorak for seals as an example. while nothing there is 100% drop you're guaranteed to walk away with at least a few seals at the end of it. that = progress. whether you'va walked out with 1 item for seals or 10. its still progress and still measurable.

    much the same with garuda. while weapons and stuff are entirely random and mucccchhhh less than 100% you're at least guaranteed headresses which ultimately = progress.

    opposite with ifrit/mog/other stuff its really easy to beat something & walk out with nothing. its really easy to beat it 10 times walk out with nothing. it's really easy to beat it 20 times and walk out with nothing.... = no progress.

    progress however is the key word. i dont think people mind the repetition so much its just the luck factor. if instead of obtain 9 seals (3 from each hamlet) it was something consistent like beat 150 hamlets. (50 for each) then it's consistant its measurable and you always make some progress. sure the rng would still impact loots and militia stuffs but you would at least be making measurable progress towards one of your goals

    People will complain they do not want to repeatedly content because it's boring. No one here that whines ever came up with proper solution.

    true but I'd say knowing you have to repeat something like 50 times is a lot better and more tolerable than saying it may take 5 times or it may take infinite.....

    It's not our job to develop the game, it is theirs. We are offering suggestions and criticism based on what we do and do not consider a productive and entertaining use of our time. We are doing OUR job well.

    "give us a better drop rate rng sucks" is NOT doing your job well as a player giving feedback
    and thats what 99% of the posts are, and the other 1% are the same exact thing hidden under a bunch of nonsense
