Feeling unlucky with log drops from hunts?

[Tashigi]

Got 1 log after a mere 200 Allied Seals; then nothing since.
Not complaining, though. I think logs should be the reward for the weekly bill IMO.

I don't remember how many hunts I did but it's been quite a lot and I have yet to get a log. My friend has done at least 300+ hunts and has only gotten two logs iirc?

That actually sounds like a good idea. Instead of random chance, they could make us actually *earn* the logs. Offering one for the weekly bill and giving out special "Hunting Tokens" for completing all 5 daily bills in any given day, letting us turn in x amount of Hunting Tokens for a log. I'd have much preferred that. As someone who tends to be on the unlucky side in most things they do, I'd take effort-based rewards over luck-based ones any day.

Though, the weekly hunt business needs some changes, but that's a different topic.

Counting the hunts alone doesn't help; B rank monsters don't give logs. You can check under Character -> Achievements how many A and S ranks you've hunted.

I'm not at home right now so I can't check but I'll do that later and post more accurate info.

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.

This thread is not for me

I have received 2 log drops, one from an A and one from an S.

74 A kills, 13 S kills.
