Who else is bored? Same Content and Formula...Was SB a waste of money?

I think its funny people complain about doing the same things over and over in XIV for loot, but then point to WoW and Diablo 3 as better alternatives... where you do the sames things over and over for loot.

Does not compute.

I can't speak for WoW, but in Diablo at least I don't mind much of the farming because I'm always building new sets to go with different skill trees. It's fun changing around your skills to change up your playstyle and whatnot, which this game lacks. Not saying it's better or anything like that, just that it's different and maybe that's why people don't mind doing the same thing in that game vs. this one. Though I'm not sure Diablo style loot would fit into this game at all.

This is actually a very difficult topic, because in a sense I think that it might work but it would need to be an alternative at what we have, however it needs an extensive work to be done right. I honestly think that a way to get gear without the need of tomestones (but not outright replace them) would be a good thing for the game.

Forgive me if I've misread; but are you actually asking for an RNG loot system?

As said It's not something easy to explain, the short answer is No, the long answer is maybe.

I think that a side activity that can give you gear outside of dungeons could be good for the game, peersonally I think that having too much of the gear coming from guaranteed tokens didn't help the longevity of the game.

edit: tbh I should make a wall text to explain what I mean not sure if ppl are interested in it however, it's just an opinion afterall
