I need 2 bolts and I'm done. 0/20 this week. Seen more single digits rolls this week than I have all the years I've played this game. Rolled one 94 and still lost.

As many have mentioned, its an element used for longevity of content.
Used in specific circumstances, its ok, but I do think SE goes way overboard with it in far too many settings in the game, layering it at nearly every turn you make, no matter what you do.
Its often a sign of devs laziness or out of ideas as they think, "hey, how can we make this mundane job exciting? ... RNG!!!"
Doesn't seem overboard for me when there's still a majority saying "it's fine." and advocating people to unsub or "just don't play it if it isn't fun for you".
I recall one time level capping back in Heavensward trying to get the boots to drop for the battle mage outfit from brayflox Level 33-60 on Longstop..... I had all the other armors sets from there though through winning greed.... but 28 levels gained in a mid tier dungeoun..... I bet if I wasnt level capped at the time I'd have prolly gone through crystal tower enough to level the rest of the level 50 jobs to 60.
Rng ALWAYs seems to hate me when it comes to gloves or boots.
So I cleared O8S before I got 4 shafts from normal...
