Garlean Steel Joints in 2.38 hotfix - please include it!

[NationOfZealots]

Please increase the drop rate of the above item for those trying to raise GSM Desynthesis, those who choose to gather the items are being forced to fight for claim of the limited spawns with other players trying to do the same but mostly I see them doing it for profit, especially the Magitek Vanguards around Raubahn's Push. This will become obsolete by 2.4 surely, so please implement for the coming hotfix to at least give a window of opportunity to those of us who are trying to progress via a game balance over Market Board profit margin manipulation.

The fact this route for fieldcraft 3's was added was ridiculous enough, making it even easier is not warranted. As far as "surely" obsolete by 2.4 it'd be hard to do that considering how easy they made it. But of course, make something easy and someone somewhere will ask for it to be even easier.

How about introducing an item that is purely for GSM dsyn gain then? I don't want them handed to me, if thats what was inferred, its just day by day leading up to 2.4 (by which time Peacock Ore could be gathered therefore making other i70 GSM crafts just as easy to create), my windows for farming these items is quickly taken up by usual aggressive-claimers because of the profit gains to be had.

A classic situation sure, but with the 2.38 hotfix around the corner, I needed to be vocal about it since in-game support refers to put this specific question, here.

Inb4 hotfix adds gold ingots to Steel Joint recipe.

or just level your desynth the same way every other class does? Stuff gets expensive, deal with it

A thousand times this! GSM already had the easiest routes for Mastercraft, Battlecraft III's, and fairly easy acquisition of FCIII's but now they have the easiest routes for all 3... I can't even believe they added these cheap glasses as a FCIII source.

They should have given 1 of these pairs of glasses (Thick Rimmed) to ALC imo. GSM seems OP now. (GSM100/BSM100/ALC92).

Since alch has one of the cheapest source of FC2s (Besides GSM once again) it would have made sence if it was an ALCH recipe especially since both recipes require clear class lenses.

They definitely should not increase the drop rate on the Joints/Plates though. Its already too easy to farm them.
