Garuda dropping the same loots since last patch

[Appleh4x]

I have never seen Ifrit drop DRG. I have seen every other Ifrit weapon drop at least twice, some four or five times.

Really? I thought it was one of the more common drops for him. I got it on my warrior since the DRGs in my party already both had it or better and it was maybe my third ifrit kill

People say scholar drops are common. Took me 63 kills to get my Garuda weapon. RNG is RNG. Just because you run it 11 times and see a trend doesn't mean much especially when every item has an equal opportunity to drop.

Monk wep, tank weps , and sch and smn....


if the other weps do actually drop which im beginning to think they dont then the other drops must be extremely low % like 1 %

so... in the 480 runs you have done since the patch, you have seen more than half of the items, so you claim that it is the same item over and over... interesting

Guys guys guys you are all forgetting the obvious truth, SE is in out heads, knows what we are thinking and what we want, then they make everything but what we want drop.

Took me more than 25 Ifrit kills in 1.0, and more than 30 Garuda (using DF!) kills in 2.0 to get those two BLM weapons. The trick is to pop a /pray directed at the boss before each fight. It increases desired weapon drop rate by 5%.

When I was doing Garuda HM, I got my tank blade after about 30 runs. In between that, I've seen a lot of BLM staves, MNK gloves, and SMN books. Prior to the tank blade dropping, 4 SCH books dropped in a row.

Saw the DRG spear twice though. That one is really rare.

Maybe it didn't feel as bad for me, because I am an avid Monster Hunter player...I still think back to the days I used to farm for Mantles and Palliums in that game.

mostly it's just "Confirmation Bias"

is not a confirmation Bias, when everyone in FC says they rarely find bows in Garuda..
the formula SE made for the RNG is bugged and each weapon got dif chances to drop cause of that

[UBERHAXED]

There's no "formula" for RNG. Moreover, I've done more than 200 runs of ifrit, 400 runs of garuda, and 50 (clears) of titan. I have never gotten the ifrit bow, yet seen every FC member of mine with it. Mind you, I've gotten both garuda and titan bows. In addition, I would run garuda and see a good variety of everything, then the next day 18 straight scholar books, while my FC scholar members complain about garuda never dropping scholar books in the whole 3 runs that they did. Definitely random.

Except everyone I know got their Garuda bow on their first try. Again, RNG is RNG. Everyone I knew told me that all that drops from them is scholar books. It took me 63 kills to get my scholar book. 63 times to get my book doesn't mean that the drop rates are borked. It's just RNG. At the same time my second class is summoner and I have never seen the Demagogue chest drop. That's also RNG.

Im still waiting for the Garuda weapon for a lancer to drop...other than that I have the Warrior weapon which is the next class im considering to lvl
