PLEASE CAP THE ZODIAC DROP RATE

[CBF]

I am frustrated beyond belief with my Nexus to Zodiac quests. I've spent quite a lot of time and in-game money on upgrading this thing to the maximum it can go and I am stuck on a stupid RnG mechanic which I don't believe even matters anymore. 54 runs in Haukke HM and still no Voidweave. 54 runs. I don't mind even 20 or 30 runs (which did actually happen with numerous other dungeons e.g. Copperbell HM), but 54, god damn, this needs some sort of cap on the amount of times you run it because I am ready for putting my head straight through my television. And I still have AURUM VALE and Sast HM to go -.-
I just want to raid with my static with the maximum available equipment, I've already maxed out my set got a few platinum items and the Nexus just plugs me to iLevel126. But this drop refuses to drop. I suggest that after 50 runs you get the item, no questions. That's only fucking fair. Sorry for the rant but I am reaaaaally frustrated, it is completely ruining my experience.

Im currently in the same boat as you. It's been 2 weeks since ive gotten a key item drop related to the transformation arc.

The current RNG drop rate is a bell curve graph. On one hand, someone somewhere got 1/1 each dungeon. While somewhere out there, someone still hasn't even received their first drop, after countless dungeon runs.

Need a drop system where "increasing returns" play. Where the more times you run a dungeon for a quest item, without a drop, that drop chance increases.

Seriously. I'm all for helping newer players through old dungeons, but I'm just one person...I can't be running Sastasha HM and Halatali HM all the time like this. I don't play any other content in this game anymore. It's just making me hate this game. I just want my ONE relic upgrade for this ONE character. There is no reason why the RNG is this difficult.

Make the drop rate incremental with each dungeon run, not stationary!

I felt the same way bud got mine now but freak me I hated doing it. I don't mind re ruining stuff with % drops but I find the dungeons having is a bit wtf, I agree after maybe certain amount of runs you can get the drop because my wife is even wonder herself if she should carry on playing the game now due to her not having her drop. It would be nice if we can see a increase in drop rates considering it's not the latest weapon to have anymore. Maybe when the next set of iLV gose up we'll see a increase.

With each new step, SE seem to succeed at making the community hate certain content.

Atma: Community loathe FATE's (more than they already did)
Animus: Community loathe FATE's some more (it was almost as if SE learned nothing over the whole Crystal Tower FATE fiasco). Also had to do dungeons, but those were a guaranteed 'drop', unless you KO'd on boss death.
Novus: Spirit Binding RNG! and then SE changing the SB rules so that i90+ gear no longer guaranteed Rank IV materia. Also required you to run through Expert Dungeons, but was a guaranteed drop.
Nexus: Light farming Primals. I'm sure most of the community are sick of Garuda and Moggle Mog HM now.
Zodiac: RNG in dungeons! Although not as low as Atma, it's still RNG and you will absolutely HATE certain dungeons by the time you're done. Also Crafting and Desynthing, if you're able to.

That about covers everything in this game. SE have successfully made anyone doing the Relic quest line (especially the unlucky ones) loathe pretty much the entire game.

I'm in Animus -> Novus stage for my Omnilex and the alex drop from fate is really worse than atma drop (usually I can get 1 atma per 2 fates).

[CBF]

So, I just got my drop on my 55th run. Now, onwards to Aurum Vale.
I really do think SE should be paying me to play this game.

I forgot you could get Alexandrites from FATE's. I mostly just did the daily as well as bought the map whenever I had enough Myth. Slow process, but it didn't make me hate the game (since it wasn't RNG... the melding, though, which I now just remembered, WAS).

ALEX drop from fates should be a bit higher cause you get poor seals (we all farming from horizon or middle nos) but doing dungeon atma kinda helps u with solds and poetics. Caps quickly. Wouldn't mind a higher % on drop thou. I did all atma dungeon in 27 hours which is day and half. Not bad if you ask me. Something I notice noticed if that drops quicker if you join with new people. ( talking in my own personal experience)

Atma 8/12 (got 4 after patch) Sorry can't feel your frustrations guys.

Then again, maybe it is a blessing.
