Primal drop system, still no changes?!

[elreed]

drop rate would still be better i think. i done ifrit 73 runs and got 1 totem no weapon drop the rate is beyond to low, this is nice if the totem would acully drop.

Look i know you all like to have all the weapons as possible in the less time as possible, but do you really want to dumb down content? Im actually happy that the dev team said that Darklight gear wont be easily drop, if you put effort in something you should have a reward for that, thats why i feel that this dumbs down a lot the rewards, yeah i dont have all he ifrit weapons yet but its been a long time that those weapons were released and are still the best.

If you make runs daily even if you're so unlucky you can get at least one totem, nut charm so if u need 10 well maybe in 10 days you can have enough items to trade a weapon and maybe another weapon droped in those 10 days, i think that people that are even saying that its unfair is the people who does 2-3 runs and then leaves it for a few days, i've done over 250 runs and i have 4/7 weapons even one i had to buy it because it had low drop rate, but im glad that i got it, i keep going there to get my axe i dont mind not having mage weapons.

Maybe in 2.0 they will add the greed/need system and im glad they wont dumb down drop rate

Those lucky bastards, I've fought him probably 200 times and have 2 totems and 1 weapon.

Now I know how bad the drops on those are.... must of been subligar power... 5 Ifrit runs first time I tried Ifrit - 1 weapon (cane) and 3 totems....

You can't take a sample size of one and then say the rest are just unlucky. You have to look over a large body of data really anything under 100 its to small a sample size to have a proper margin of error but with 50 kill you should have a pretty good idea what drop rates are actually like.

Killed him once and got 1 totem, omg 100% drop rate confirmed.

Yep I agree, it was just me and my wifes first time run we went to Ifrit and we both got weapon + totems while others didn't get anything and I didn't pay too much attention to the drop rates info on the forums so I thought that was normal then, kind of feel bad for others that was there... maybe should of passed the totem but then later wife and I talked about how it would of been better if wife or I passed the totems to each other to get other weapon we wanted.

Hello everyone!

We looked into increasing the drop rate and allowing each party member to receive a inferno totem or kupo nut charm with each winning encounter, but instead of touching up on the drop rate, we decided to make adjustments to the number of required totems and nut charms.

In patch 1.22, the below changes are what we have planned:

• Inferno Totems: 10 → 5
• Kupo Nut Charms: 20 → 10

The reason we decided on this change is because if we changed the drop rate, there would still be unlucky players who would complain that they can't get an item, so we decided to not play with the drop rate and instead just change the amount of items required for exchange for a weapon.

Should have been

In patch 1.22, the below changes are what we have planned:

• Inferno Totems: 100% drop rate - Untradeable
• Kupo Nut Charms: 100% drop rate - Untradeable

They said changing the drop rate, not adjusting it to 100%. Can't you understand that they're intentionally not changing it to 100% for a reason?

Well I suppose if that reason is to be asinine and awkward.

I don't know any modern MMO that requires you to kill something 100 times and not have something you want at least 1 of those times.

Yoshi-p may as well make an achivement named
LOL you suck - 100 primal kills and you still don't have a weapon. Lolololol

Lame. Should increase totem drop rate and lower that especially since it is older content now. Though the item drop rate itself should stay the same. After a good 50 runs I have only got 3 totems, and another 50+ prior to when totems dropped. Just saying.
