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

And that's the thing. If Gear drops, you can either use it, glamor it, or turn it in for GC seals at the very least. If the [expletive] mats drop and you don't do the crafting that needs them? Well, the game says you can go [expletive] yourself. I could sell them sure, but I don't really need gil. Everything that I want is untradable and unsellable and either is a trade-in for tomes, quest reward, or (allegedly) drops from a dungeon.

these drop rates are really annoying me too, I have the tank head and feet just need the rest but every dungeon since has literally been; first boss random material, second boss two random materials, third boss another pointless material.
I would really like to do other things but I really want the tank gear for glamour. been doing stone vigil and hull breaker 5 times a day each day since the patch and it really demotivating. If getting rid of the materials isn't a option at least lower the chance of getting them a little bit so you don't get a whole dungeon of just materials.

Nine pages and there's still no official word on anything? Kinda sucks.

There'll be words from the devs once the Atma drop rate is "addressed" *snort*

The only problem I see is people complaining that it's tougher to farm a full set of gear in a week. Sorry, but you're not supposed to. It's meant to take time. This game has never been about "I want it, and I want it NOW!". Probably never will be.

No one here is expecting to get everything immediately, we just expect to not spend 20-30 minutes on a dungeon to be rewarded with nothing but materials that are most likely useless to us.

Wow, you get an S+ in missing the point. I'm not upset about not immediately getting a full set of gear, and don't think anyone else here is either. I even specifically stated that even if I got things I didn't need but could trade in for things that I could do *something* with I'd be good with it. We're upset that we're effectively getting garbage from bosses whereas most dungeons before this don't.

I wasn't necessarily talking solely about you.You don't want mats that you can only either use, or sell for gil. The gear can also only be either used, or sold for seals. Not a huge difference. The actual "reward" of these dungeons is the tomes they supply. And they also drop gear anyway, just less often. No reason to be complaing about these dungeons.

Wrong. Dungeons have always been about BOTH gear and tomes. Even though it may not be use for you, a new player may use it as an actual upgrade.

my friend just did hit 50 recently and i did help him do dungeon, everything was fine, until reach the dungeon of the 2.2-2.3.... there on 10 dungeon, we did see maybe 7 gears loot. all the rest was crafting stuff.
he was like "shit i will never get equiped" he will get faster i90 and i100 stuff than i80 gear from dungeon.

other point that some people did forget, now even the ring, bracer, necklace and earring are in the boss chest. it's a huuuuge loot table.
more important, the side chest have loose all interest, since they only offer potion that we rarely use... i have more of 60 super elixir....

solution: put the crafting loot into the side chest.
and about people saying: why boss must reward with loot, because it was like this in wow?
i will say: it was like this in every damn mmorpg before. you face a challenge you need to be rewarded.
