Crafting Materials in Roulette

[YaHiKoDrG]

6th day in a row I've gotten 4 crafting mats from all chests in SV....

This is a fantastic idea OP!

i55 - i70 and the fancy crafters can craft i90 gear for players but the latter can help boost interest and markets for crafters. I guess it gives some notion to people to finally level a DoH to make some money or gear for other classes they have yet to level.

Lets get this some more attention! Tell your friends about it if they are also upset with the way loot currently works in the roulette.

Not even 30 expert dungeon runs yet not a single run without a gear drop at all.
Have all divine harvest except boots and hands.
Have a couple of divine light, divine war and divine hero pieces as well.
That's with plenty of gear that went to others.

Sometimes I wonder if people even look at the loot before passing, just assuming that it's crafting mats and not gear/accessories.

During the last live letter they said however they'd look into making gear drop more often. Don't think they said anything about removing crafting materials.

I wish they'd take out the sherry, blood, and water. Nobody wants or needs the quantities of that garbage in dungeons. Or minium.


Regarding potions: I use the x-potions, they've actually saved my life a few times believe it or not. Black Mages can use the x-ethers for flares. So those are actually useful to some people (I like when minions drop from potion chests though!).

i get almost all the mats in dungeons since most people havnt even touched there crafts and most of mine are lv50. i just need and get all of them.

You can Need on them without having your crafting classes leveled. Most people just don't want them. A few of them can go for about 10k on my server, but most are just vendor trash (oh boy, a whole 20 gil!) and that's why nobody wants them.

I kinda like the way things are right now. Maybe it seems not really useful for players that doesn't have any/all DoH capped, but since I have all DoH capped, I always find myself always lacking of mats. Even those seemingly useless mats can be turned into more favorable market value once you crafted them.

I actually have a little bit complaint of why SE didn't put more crafting rewards, though it would hurt markets. lol
