    I didn't document all of mine, but I feel like I've been pretty lucky after seeing some people needing 30+ runs for one of them.

    My best run was absolutely Dzemael Darkhold. I caught an in-progress run on my first time where everyone was at the final boss and got my drop from it. 4 mins total in DD.

    My worst so far was Brayflox. I think I needed about 15-20 runs to get that one. It's hard to remember exactly because I queued for every dungeon I had open at the time and I didn't always get Bray's, but it was definitely quite a few of them. I'm glad it was that dungeon I got hung up on though, the full run hardly ever took longer than 11 mins, even the few times I caught a new player bonus.

    I still need Sastasha/Snowcloak and then I'll be done. And Sastasha.....think I've only run it about 6-7 times but I'm already tired of it. Especially when they pair me with another Bard, the Kraken takes so long to kill

    I've cleared 12 out of 16 dungeons now, most of them dropped under 5 runs, except Quan and Tam-tara which hates me now. I'm sure I did more than 10 runs each already.

    On a side note, someone in Tonberry Server ran 69 runs of Aururm Vale to get that drop.

    That's the definition of an almost neverending nightmare - it's quite shocking to read such stories and it's nearly unbelievable that someone has done more runs for a single item than others for almost all of them.

    I guess you can call yourself lucky if you get out of this grind with only a few attempts for each one. I only have Halatali and Snow Cloak left and am @ 61 dungeons.

    But there's still around 2,000 Soldiery to collect....

    I guess I am about there, 4 more dungeons and probably that amount of dungeons you ran. But I had more soldiery to collect, maybe about 2,300 more.

    Yeap, when that dude finally got it, news of his nightmare luck spread almost instantly across the farming linkshells.

    And yet when people gave similar stores to their frustrations with the Atma drops pre buff, all the complaints were met with "lol you're lazy/not putting in more effort" "I got mine in 10 tries, dunno what you talking about"

    I still think it's pretty rare cases of bad luck though.

    I've checked around with those who already got their relic, the amount of people who have to do a certain dungeon over 20 times is on the low end.

    As of now Tam-tara is still my bane. Need to get it to drop, so that I can access the last dungeon which is SV HM.

    I'm one of those people. After doing Aurum Vale and Satasha Hard 10+ times, I hope to never see them again.
