    But there is no point in retro fitting the loot system to out dated content.

    If it was so much of a problem, why use the same system in soldiery and poetics gear? A two-stage system that involves rolling on loot against 7 other players to upgrade a single piece.

    You realise once upgraded the Levi weapons barely look any different? Why bother?

    did you try unsheathing them? they are much more illuminated and have bubble effects

    the token works in the context of statics, who are generally the ones clearing the content. it's also a 100% drop rate and they later added more sources for the drop. if a mirror was a 100% drop rate it probably wouldn't be that bad either. but it's not, it's still an uncommon drop from something that people only do specifically for mirrors/mounts.

    Yes, I have one. It really doesn't look that much different to me... I also think you overestimate how many people do Levi for mirrors. For the mount? Sure, those are always in demand. But hardly anyone wants an out of date weapon when there are stronger ones that are easier to come by. And for glamour, for the majority the normal version will do.

    Sorry you like it so much, but I don't think they're going to entirely rework the drop system for such a small amount of players who only want an upgrade for glamour :x

    I join mount parties and pretty much everyone rolls on it so it's still in demand. they can at least change the drop rate to 100%, they did for ramuh and no one kills that guy(mostly because they can't)
