Bring back weekly Item limit on Sycrus Tower, please!!

[AsahinaMyLove]

Hello!

Its about Sycrus Tower(ST)
Since the weekly limit is sadly removed, its been like worthless doing this dungeon! <-<

I finished, since the patch 2.4, 75 STs! (Any class, exept tank)
75 finished STs = 150 chances to get a Time sand, and 150 chances to get time oil!
(I never had luck to join an active run u.u)

on those 2x 150 chances...
I was able to get just 6 Time sands and 5 oils... (gears just 7)
(I know that because I write down a game dairy for myself to avoid playing 24/7)

Its really frustrating! Im giving my all as DPS/Healer class(~lv93) and I get nothing. <,<
Im not the only one whos complaining!

So PLEASE bring back weekly limit on ST to make it fair enjoyable!
Or solutions like this:
- 1 item limit per day!
- 1 item per player per run!
- 1 item per chest per player! (Amon and Final Boss chest has min. 5 items !)
- 1 Sand of time OR time oil possible to get per run! (since its most wanted)

thanks!!

It's fine the way it is, if you need sands/oils go with some friends or FC mates and let them know what you want.

I'd rather have no cap to have a chance to get multiple items than a cap and only get 1 item.


Also I'd like to add you could still have run 75 ST's and only gotten 1 oil or sand if the cap was in place instead of your 6 sands and 5 oils, who's to say that someone wouldn't lot higher than you each time. If anything blame RNG.

As someone who plans to 50 all class, the change is good to quickly catch up the ilvl.

Yeah I can't agree with this at all. I've been able to quickly catch up in gear with this change on my non-main jobs. I've had my dry times as well, going nearly a full week of no sands, and still prefer how it is.

I know your struggle. Ever since the lockout being taken out I've gotten only 1 sand out of like 40 runs. :s You are better off joining a good T7 farm group. So much faster you're bound to get a sand.

Post 2.4 I did about 15 ST Runs and got 5 Sand and 4 oil. I've been doing other stuff but about to level up my alt job so going to be back shortly.

Also 2 sand and 1 oil where Queues in progress when I pop on the 2nd last boss.. perk of being a healer.

[papichulo123]

yeah just farm second coil way better chance at sands and oils

Wait for patch 2.5 and 1-a-week restriction on the new alliance raid. I think it took me about 25 runs ~ 50 rolls to get an oil, but then I ended up with another one soon after. Well, there's alternative gear you can get to avoid this luck of the draw... soldiery is uncapped now, second coil is on the DF, and crafted i110 gear exists now, so there's choices available.

[Fyrebrand]

My luck with oil/sand hasn't been too bad, but then again I'm not in a rush to gear a bunch of alt jobs either. Odds are, in that many runs, you can get some gear drops from ST. Buy soldiery gear for the slots that need the upgrade, and apply sands/oil to those ones first. Even if you don't have all slots at i110, you'll still be well-geared for most of the content in the game at this point. If you want to get into more advanced stuff, won't you want to move on to poetics gear anyhow? Unless I'm mistaken, Oil/Sands won't help you there.


Oh, and because I just noticed this in a sig:

Commendations.
If I play dps I only give it out to other dps.
If I play tank I only give it out to healers.
If I play healer I only give it out to tank.

Only if they should be getting a commendation.

Sounds like a very poor system to me. By all means, try to balance the roles who get commendations, but it sounds like you are just doing it according to what you are playing, rather than who was the best contributing player.

Wait did this actually just happen.
" please bring back weekly item limit"?......
Ppl cried for se/ ofc se will take loot lockout off on old content, so they did. Now its off ppl can farm it till they die and now ur asking for a limit again.
I feel for SE, there's just no pleasing u guys!

Make a pf, get fc / ls buds and share the loot.
You guys can also just get carried if ur bored in ST
I.e doing bad rotations, spam medica 2 stand in aoes etc
And u'll still get carried for a chance at loot that u don't deserve but will be able to roll for it cuz u can lol.
