Feeling unlucky with log drops from hunts?

My friend has roughly half of my kills, but a log more than I got.

A guy in a Linkshell of mine got 5 log drops in a single day yesterday.


Personally, I really wish they'd give us some content where the effort and the time we put into something determines our reward, without luck playing a role in it.

It's good to see that I'm not the only unlucky one, though.

Well these are the people who gave us Atma farming, so I'm guessing being good at RNG will be an important skill in this game going forward.

That is my fear as well. What surprised me more than more RNG being put in the game, is how many people are fine with or even happy with matters being purely based on luck.
Some randomness here and there keeps things fresh - but in my opinion, luck should never play big enough a role to overshadow everything else. I just don't think it's right that person A could clear raid X 20 times without receiving a single drop, while person B clears the same raid once and walks out fully geared. Just like I don't think it's right that person A could receive 0 logs after killing 500 A and S ranks, while person B receives 100 logs for the same amount.

Too much RNG dependency is a bad thing all around; for unlucky people, it's obviously frustrating to repeatedly get the short end due to no fault of their own, without anything they can do about it, while for lucky people, getting rewards based solely on luck takes away any accomplishment. They didn't "earn" or "deserve" what they got, they were just simply given it.

Have to check the actual number later tonight, but I've farmed enough seals to BUY one log and have 67 seals left. I've never had a log drop from a monster.
