For the love of Hydaelyn SE! Stop with pointless drops!!

The issue is that philo mats dilute the drop pool to the point where it takes an inordinate amount of time to get personal, untradeable/unsellable glamours compared to everything else in the game.

SO, much this...I've seen 1 piece of gear drop in like 5 dungeons and the rest are philo mats and the majority of them are worthless now at least on Excalibur. Potash, Lime Sulphur and Peacock or are the only ones worth anything (between 4 and 8k), the rest are being sold for less than 100 gil or even as low as their vendor price.

So, I just looked up the actual loot tables for the newest dungeons:

Nineteen possible items a single boss chest, eleven of which are crafting materials. Can we just nope to all of this? Seriously.

Amen to that. At this point I'd take just FEWER mats in that pool too; not that I'd find it ideal since I feel like at least the *final boss* of a dungeon should always drop gear, but it'd be better than the rubbish rates we have now.

Well Hunts don't drop Filtered Water 99% of the time, so...

Great points made all around. Really hope Yoshi-P will address this in the next live letter, or we get some admin love on this thread. The whole thing is incredibly irritating. I just want to see some gear. Since the patch I have personally not seen any gear drops from final bosses in any of the three dungeons. On all other bosses I could probably count on two hands how many times I've seen gear drop.

EDIT: Looks like something is gonna happen with this based on Live Letter Q&A

Seeing that question answered made my day, and it's great to know that we weren't the only ones asking for this change (Yoshi-P even joked about the mat-loots). Now the only question is how long before it will be implemented.

The real question is when. "Looking into it" and actually do something about it are two different things.

Still wondering when this is supposed to happen Yoshida.

A valid question. Perhaps SE just figured "well the new dungeons don't drop glamour stuff and no one is going to do the previous dungeons any more," and left it as is :/
