    Ifirit, how it could have been done better.

    Yoshi-P says he wants crafted items to be the best so crafters are needed.
    Players want the drops they worked so hard for to actually be better than some cheaply made crafted item with 1 materia on it.
    Ifirit drops simply piss players off to see items going to the ground.

    Solution
    Make the drop the HORN, and have crafters make the weapons!
    So simple.

    I would have the horn drop in addition to the gear, as an extra rare prize. That way, you satisfy both camps. The horn would be extra rare because you could theoretically craft an HQ version of the Ifrit weapons that could also have meteria stuck in it.

    He has been over this. The current system is working as intended. The drop rate as well as the random nature of loot serves as a time sink to keep players occupied until 1.20. As soon as they can roll out enough content to keep people occupied, they will most likely implement a need/greed system.

    Ya, sure that's what he always says, while others in my ls already have all 7 weapons, i've gotten 2 drops, and both were the bow, if it's working as intended, then i would say that the intent is to piss everyone off.

    theres no damn random nature in getting 5 Ifrits Canes in 20+ kills My 17Conj really needed that cane. Not like i would like a Greataxe for my MRD or Fists for my PUG no i need more Ifrits canes. I wish i could shove all those cane drops up Yoshis ass and see how he likes gettin shafted like me.

    That is actually a perfect example of how random the loot distribution is, if there is a certain % chance for 1) an item dropping from the chest and 2) the same % for each item.

    Right, then anyone can have the satisfaction of Ifrit weapons without the work of actually killing him.

    I'll pass.
