Why is Coil so Cruel?

[Syhrwyb]

My group and I clear turns 6 and 7 just as well as the next, but I never get anything. It's starting to make me think of just quitting coil altogether. Why should I bother to continue with the current lockout system?

In all honesty, it's a matter of luck. I remember I started getting into the First Coil a couple of months after a few of my buddies, and in my third week doing it I got the Tunic of Healing. They had been trying since the start to get it and still hadn't, and they rightly hated my so-called luck/RNG!

It all depends on whether you feel you have enough to do outside of Coil or not :-)

Learn to move on. I haven't receive any BRD loots for 8 striaght weeks. No threads created here just to say this lol.

The only way this can get better is SE changed from dropping direct loots to loot tokens instead. Then the raid can plan a token reeving order/priority and the player can exchange the token say with Rowena for any gear of their choice, except for weapons.

Yeah but...you have upgraded Rosenbogen, High Allagan belt, gloves, boots and bracelet, upgraded Bard chest with Sands, three upgrades accessories with Oils and Slaying earrings for an alt. You're hardly starved of gear lol. If you had been clearing it since release and had yet to get a single piece maybe you could understand how OP is feeling. Being i110 or not far off, you can't really see where they are coming from.

1.23 proved that system is flawed in itself.

This system works better, albeit with the chance you may get nothing at all.

1.23 token drop-rates were PAINFUL.

I haven't got a single drop for my main from The Second Coil of Bahamut so far. Is that annoying? Yes. Does that mean I should cry about it on the forums? No.


The only way around this is to go back to a 'token' based system like 1.23, which would be MUCH more horrendous as the drop-rate for those was atrocious, you had even less chance of getting an item than you do now.

Your main class, Conjurer. Has High Allagan earrings of healing.

Erm, ok then...
