Crystal tower drops

[Tandy]

Monk gear. Over and over and over again. You would think my groups were full of 3 monks every run. I literally haven't ran it one time without at least 2 bosses dropping monk items, and I have averaged 9 or so runs a week. Today, had 2 runs with 3 monk items each. Seen 2 drops for casters. Never seen healer chest yet,and it's what I want now.

Please for the love of god, tune down monk drops.

Meanwhile, player B...

Monk gear. Never and ever and ever at all. You would think my groups were devoid of monks every run. I literally haven't ran it one time without all 4 bosses not dropping monk items, and I have averaged 9 or so runs a week. Today, had 2 runs with 0 monk items each. Seen 2 drops for casters. Never seen monk chest yet, and it's what I want now.

Please for the love of god, tune up monk drops.

Here is my break down of items that have dropped for Monk and Black Mage so far for me. I only kept tabs on these two classes cause they are the main ones I play. I have been going at it for the Caster chest especially. I lost the roll on it on run 14.
Will continue to edit this as I make more attempts at CT.

Last night was my 42nd run and I finally got the Crimson Vest to drop for only the 2nd time !!!! Luckily the summoner in the group took something earlier for his SCH so I was the only roll for it !!!! Cant believe it took this many goes at it.


Caster
2 of 42 Chest
2 of 42 Legs
2 of 42 Gloves
4 of 42 Hat
3 of 42 Boots
2 of 42 Belt
Monk

14 of 42 Chest
3 of 42 Gloves

Did 23 runs total before i saw any caster drops, crimson breeches and i got em <3

Mostly i see Bard, tank and dragoon drops

CT is the first place where i had to run this many times to get loot

This is what I mean by exaggerated numbers. 70-140 runs without seeing the Black Mage Body yet? Never play the lottery.

Sadly, I'm on the same boat, I've been trying for 3 weeks now to get the Crimson body, but have only seen it drop once, which was a roll I lost, no biggie though, I don't mind that.
But the fact that I have ran atleast 2 times a day up to 10-15 times on certain days (like today, and no, I'm not overreacting), with only having it seen once, just blows my mind.
Not sure if I truely am unlucky, considering I have gone through coil for 9 weeks now with no loot on my monk(which is my main), that also is not overreacted sadly.
I think I'm just bound to bad fortune.

Wait, so this week is healer drops? Maybe I should try and run it again for those, even if now I only need gloves and belt. Had planned for this week not to farm it and if I run it to greed on bard drops.

I really wish I can run CT together with those players that complaint about too many monk gears... Had over 100 runs by now over 4 weeks and I have only saw the monk shirt drop once, sadly that was in a run right after I got my first week loot... OTL

This week's CT weather (for me): heavy downpour on healer/tank/BRD/BRD/BRD gears

Each boss drops 9 items, so if your looking for a specific item, you really cant even begin to expect it will be yours until #9 if you havent seen it yet. Running 18 times and not seeing that drop is no different than flipping a coin and having it land on the the same side twice...its not that uncommon, even 3-4 times even tho the odds are 50/50. Running for a specific item is what alot of us like to do, but realistically it's not a smart move unless your willing to do 50+ runs ahead of time, considering there might be another of ur class that wants/rolls on said item.

[SokiYagami]

True, the odds of not getting what you desired even after X number of runs is high, but having the same item (healer hat) roll for ~10 times in a row is rather BS. (I'd love to win lottery 10 times in a row though) Which boils down to the question, exactly how random is the RNG in the game? I for one haven't seen a single piece of item drop for more than 4 times in a row in any part of the game until CT, not even back when I was running WP 30 times in a row to farm for tomes. The RNG function is written by the programmers, and only they themselves know how many variables are added into the equation to ensure the outcome will be as random (and perhaps even) as possible.

Before anyone starts a flame war, no, I don't have screenshot to prove my words, so it's fine if you think I'm lying or whatsoever. I still wish we can get a token system to run together concurrently with the loots from the treasure box though.

yea dont get me wrong sometimes things def seemed skewed. Example ive been farmin garuda hm w/ a friend trying to get her spear and out of 12 runs its been either the smn or sch book 10 outta 12..... so i know the feelin. But i also play online poker semi-pro and have played upwards of 10 million+ hands, so im use to seeing the same sort of thing work out there, there are just upswings and downswings. For every time you are seein that same monk drop there is probably another player that has seen the item u want drop over and over in their party.
