This is just something I notice when trying to cap my soldiery. Usually I run mythflox with friends or just run primals with them or something to cap soldiery for the week. Recently my free company broke up so I just have been using duty finder for mythflox groups.

Then I notice something strange, no one has any soldiery gear in these duty finder groups! I mean, sure I understand there are lots of new players with the PS4 release but after like 20 runs over the last two weeks, it was very rare to see anyone with a single soldiery piece. It was maybe every other run, I'd see like one person that might have 1-2 pieces.

It doesn't really matter that they don't have it, it bothers me none and we clear the dungeons just fine. It does make me think though, do people quit the game these days before they farm enough soldiery to get a piece of gear? It might make sense, give that maybe during their free month, they reach 50 and to get the chestpiece (which most people seem to like to get first) it takes two weeks or so.

It just seems sad, do people quit just willy nilly like that lately? I remember back months ago when myth had a cap, you'd often see people with some myth gear. It wasn't hard to get after all! It just required that maybe they play a month or two and they'd be clad in a couple pieces of the stuff.

Personally I think people can do what they want but, I just wonder like, why are people leaving if they are? And if not, why bother sticking around if they aren't even doing dungeons? .... It's just weird to me. I do realize people have alt jobs they do farming on, but 1 in 8 having any soldiery gear seems to suggest it's a bit more that that.
