Philo mats need to go

[Felis]

Yea, I'm okay with the extra chests dropping crafting mats. I just don't think they're an appropriate "reward" for killing a boss. Cooking Sherry as our final boss reward? How wonderful. -_-;

In the old 1.0 grade 5 dark matter were in boss chests as alternative to gear drop.

So? That's equally absurd (as previous posters have already declared).

There are plenty of side chests in these dungeons. Changing it so the boss chests only drop Darklight or the green ilvl 70 pieces would not impact people who want the crafting mats, especially as you can trade in anything you don't want for more seals. I've seriously capped my GC seals twice since the patch dropped without even trying. >_>;

Love when Fat, Coke, Potash, Sap or Ore drop...trying to get enough to craft the 2* mats without spending a ton of gil isn't easy...

Spend GC seals... >_>

2500 per mat. You need 45 mats to get the master crafter book (if you HQ craft all 5 2*s, more if you fail 1 or more...). 112,500 Seals, minimum, for 1 book

Yeah...about that...
