What we have learned...

[Remedi]

not really defending the sysetm but, with a party of 4-5 got about 25+ in about 1 hour, the rate seems to be higher with a party (note the enemies were lv 5) also you get a sure crystals once you get 30 chain (also the guy in the camp is saying that chain increases quantity of drop, I suspect the lv 23 monsters will do that).
Take from this whatever you will

@alleo (limit posts) I've been receiving one at 30 constanstly from mobs lv 3+ maybe it's like 80% but definitively very high same goes with the friend I was in

They learned nothing.
They don't listen to their NA/EU fans
By roots, they mean 2.0 formula on repeat til the game eventually dies.

GG.

There was someone on reddit that said that they get got no crystal when they had a 30 chain, so I am not sure if this is a 100% drop or if this is only a really high RNG increase. I also was in a party and we did have some 30 chain (cant remember if I always get a drop or not) but I would have not gotten that amount of drops in an hour since I had like only 6-7 after that.

They have learnt how to constantly recycle the same formula again and again. Break the loop, use your wallet and say NO MORE.

Commenting so someone sees this.

A boring grind for outdated gear IS NOT FUN

Eureka in a nutshell

[ElazulHP]

Dunno about anyone else but farming the same mobs over the over again for hours a day for months to get a set of gear that is already out of date isn't my idea of fun. I feel that this was supposed to be released a couple of months ago and they never bothered to update the rewards or tweak it a bit to make it easier since the rewards are no where near worth the effort to acquire them.

I learned that things only become a problem to SE when the jpn playerbase has an issue with it.

This thread nails it exactly. Square needs to stop being lazy. After the launch of stormblood, theres been a huge content lull. The worse we've ever seen and what do we get? This poorly made and badly thought content that isn't even fun? What's the point of playing the game at this point? Square has been disappointing us at each turn with this expansion. Not only that, they claimed that the zones are bigger than heavensward areas and they're about the same size. We were promised that balance was going to be great in exchange we sacrificed having an extra job and the balance is STILL bad. (RIP Dark Knight and hello to Dragoon support). I feel like Square has been cheesing this expansion hard.

Eureka proved that they have forgotten about those 4 facts.
