    Increase drop rates please

    I was farming garuda extreme to start my collection of ponies after you brought the patch where you increased the drop rate and I only saw one whistle out of 15 tries consecutively. Also adjust drop rate on nexus phase(do a dungeon 1 to 5 times and then get your drop). Plus my main character is bard and I have farmed t10, t11, and t12 and have not seen the aiming earring, aiming bracelet, aiming pants at all, I only have seen tank, ninja, casting gear. I would suggest an idea where when you beat the turn you get to choose 2 pieces of gear out of all characters for the turn and then get to choose a carbon coat/carbontwin/encrypted tomestone. I would love to get the ponies but it is a waste of time to fight over the drop, the chance of it showing up( if it appeared in 1 to 3 tries maybe worth it), or even give it to everybody in the party to make it fair, the real struggle is beating the fight.

    For people with limited time to play, having to farm 6-8 hours is definitely a waste of time when we want to do more as well. I did a Garuda farm for 5 hours and xanthos whistles dropped after 20 fights, and 1 nightmare whistle. Then we have the rolls and losing them and people quitting only for the newcomers to get whistles if they drop while the people who were farming for longer end up empty-handed. It's just not fair. We must have run it over 80 times by then since we were one-shotting.

    The grindy-ness in a lot of these quests is incredibly off-putting as well and I'd hope something would be done to ease that on players who can't dedicate more than a few hours a day to it.

    I dont think everyone one is meant to have them. They are rare to show that you put the time in.

    Pretty much this.

    Why MUST you have it now? Take a brak, go for a jog, come back tomorrow and try again; still no? LEvel another class and try again next week. This game isn't your life.

    Not everyone had to put hours in at a time to get the whistle.

    Wow... i've got kirin and it took me a long time, Had runs where i did not see a pony drop for over 30 runs. Had runs where i saw them drop 2/3x in a row.

    And let me not even start about your other "Fixes" You'll be whining after that about how you have nothing to do in this game.(If they would take your fixes serious)
