30 days almost up and I still can't enter endgame due to droprate

I'm probably wrong but when we tried to go for a weapon, we figured it changed on an hourly basis.

We tested by clearing a fight twice in the same hour. We got the same weapon.

Then we waited for the next hour, then cleared the primal, we got a different weapon.

I mean it could be a coincidence, but it's something to consider.

Coincidence unfortunately. lol

You honestly think a +5ilvl weapon is going to make or break your ability to hold aggro?

Going from ilvl 45 to ilvl 55 drastically increased my ability to hold aggro in AK. It went from struggling and occasionally losing aggro due to the dps being better geared than I to holding it all the time. +5 may not be a lot, but it sure does count.

+5 sounds a lot more impressive than +1, which is the weapon attack difference.

i45 to i55 is +6 weapon attack difference

And the +1 still does count.

Barely. Putting your 30 puts into STR does more than 1 WP difference.

Have you ever wondered why even end game weapons do not break the 47 physical damage mark? I think that 1 point is more significant than what you are playing at. And as a tank, shouldn't he be more concerned with VIT?

This is the damage increase from GC to Ifrit using http://valk.dancing-mad.com/?page_id=260 to calculate.





And yes, putting your 30 points into VIT is best.

[TL;DR I have had 1 paladin sword dropped in 205 Ifrit Hard Mode kills. I don't feel geared enough to continue my relic weapon quest with my level 55 green scimitar.]

Funny thing is Hydra and beyond you need to kill with relic weapon equipped if i am reading the quest right....

Whether the stats warrant it or not, for me in past cases of RNG trolling at around Run #40-50 it becomes Me VS RNG. I will run it until I get it.
