4 man Dungeon Loot

[Nekodar]

So far I've gotten 4 healer pieces, as well as a few other gear pieces for other jobs. From 10 runs total.
Looking at loot tables for Tam-tara Deepcroft (hard) as an example yields a >88% chance of at least one gear drop during a run, with a 40-42% chance of any individual chest dropping a piece of gear.

Run all the dungeons about 5 times each, seen 2 healers chest, 1 mage chest , and 2 healers boots. Rest is crafting matts and is driving us nuts. Some of the ingredients are worthless, sell for vendor price on MB, others have decent value but I want to get gear from dungeons, not damn crafting stuff.

I support and want a change, lower the drop rate of crafting stuff to 10%-20%.

Some is good, but when that's what people see most of the time they get discouraged.

Drops from boss chests needs to be changed! I'm tired of getting filtered water and the rest of the crappy crafting items! Just give us armor because even if we don't need it we can then turn around and trade it in for GC seals and then use THOSE seals to buy crafting items if we needed them in the first place! Also if you still have a problem with that then have the crafting items be given a chance to drop from the normal chests through out the dungeon, but not in the boss chests!

I completely agree with most of you here. I don't care at all if these crafting mats dropped from normal dungeon treasure chests, but I've honestly had enough of getting crap like Filtered Water or Cooking Sherry from bosses.

A change needs to be made. Boss chests need to have useful items, fill the non-boss chests with the crafting mats.

OMG you must have read my mind..... WTH makes them think we want our asses kicked around for freakin crafting mats.... THEN on top of that we can get the same mats from myth tomes.......

[chidarake]

of course since patch those mats have exploded in price, most capping at 10k each now.. and although they do fluctuate in price crafters such as myself need them not only to make gear but now to progress in getting our new tools.

I do agree they should drop from the secondary chests though instead of the crap we get in them. but I don't think gear should be in every boss fight in a dungeon. but should only be guaranteed in the last boss chests.

I actually just posed this question in the Letter from the producer thread, please like the post, because we could really use an answer for this one!

Could you link the thread? Maybe it's just me not being used to using the forums but i'm struggling to find it x)

what bother me more is the chest outside boss fight that are joke... elixir and ether? seriously? for someone in i100+ they are almost useless, exept rare case you will never use them!
ohhh without forget that now we do have accessory mixed with the armor. meaning that we have helmet, glove, pants, belt, gloves, boots, ring, earring, bracer and necklace + all the crafting stuff! for god sake!

I'd change Chests/Coffers drop as follows:

Common: Currency (tomes) / Better-than-current-dungeon lvl Crafting mats (coke, sap, etc)
Uncommon: High lvl Currency / Dungeon-Thematic Rare crafting mats) / Better-than-current-dungeon lvl gear (eg Darklight)
Rare: High lvl Tomes gear +1 (eg. Weathered Noct Gauntlets +1)
UltraRare: Exclusive Dungeon thematic gear (eg. Haukke Necklace, Brayflox's boots, Pharos Axe, etc..)
