    remains unchanged...

    Never has an on screen message encapsulated how disappointed I am.

    Palace of the Dead is a grind, and what a grind it is. And for what?

    My biggest problem is that the "rewards" are lame. And that they're locked behind a ridiculously boring grind. It's not even that long just boring.

    The fact that your odds of having your aetherpool arm and armor increase are soooo low once you've reached the halfway point is just not worth it. You have to run the first 40 floors again and again with no reward whatsoever to get to floors 40-50 to then have better odds of increaing your aetherpool stuff. Maybe it's just me but I guess I'm good. Before the SE stans come for me I just wont be doing PotD

    Might just be their way of trying to pad it out till the remaining floors are brought out but I admit, if this is true (working, sadly cant try it much) then I can imagine a lot of people disliking this =/

    Two words: Vertical progression.
    How can you get worthwhile rewards when there are only a few stat setups on each gear? 235 weapon? Cool. Already have 240 or 235 weapons even for jobs that I don't have leveled, untill we get horizontal progression with gear that also has special passive abilities so we get the motivation to get gear from many different zones, I am just doing it for the lolz and thanks god I am still getting the lolz, not sure for how long though.

    Basically there is no worthwhile reward as you can already get your weapon from multiple sources (a few exceptions can be found with bad stat assignment) untill something changes with itemization.

    Are you upset that SE designed this content to last for probably more than one day?

    no.I'm upset that Se design this context to essentially be a super easy boring dungeon that takes about 4 hours to complete from floor 1 to 50 with rewards that aren't worth those 4 hours.
    If it at least wasn't boring I'd be into it. But man is it boring

    When enhancing gear, there is a chance of failure that varies depending on the current level of your gear and the floor where the silver coffer is found.
    This was probably put in to stop people running 1-10 over and over to gear up. Do higher levels.

    The problem is that in order to do the higher levels any additional times after the first you have to reset your entire progress and start again from level 1. It would be less tedious if you could queue for specific brackets after you've completed them (even at a reduced rate) than having to go 1-30 seeing no gains until you're back at the "appropriate" level range.

    I know, but without this people could get weapons in 1 day.
