Square Enix should really address dungeon loot drops...

[ItMe]

If you make everything avalaible easily it literally means nothing to have those in the first place.
Being a game doesn't mean they give you everything for free even more when it's a multiplayer game.
And they're doing mmos, they need to keep ppl playing and rng will always be a great tool for that, that and player's greed to have all the shiny mounts and weapons / glamour.

I never said it needs to be easily available.
But as is... it is literally possible to run a level cap duty for a specific piece infinite times and never ever see it.
That's no good.

It's just a big waste of time.
The gear is arguably ALREADY easily available. The dungeons don't challenge you. They're just a time sink that doesn't have to be one.

You don't need to give it "for free."
I just ask you at least have a totem system the way you do with EX mounts and Savage gear.

Why not ? Because it bother some people to grind for stuff ?
Glamour isn't a core mecanic at all either, it's only and just about player's greed to want those.
It's a MMO, wasting ur time is the actual goal since mmos birth and random loots will always be a part of it.
My TEA BiS isn't needed either, but i wanted it so i did grind for it end of the story.
But i guess crying on forums because grind is boring is faster than actually doing it tho

Because the grind has no upper limit.
You can grind forever and not see anything come of it.
That's just player hostile, and it stands in stark contrast with so much of FF14's design that it feels especially egregious.

Grinding in an MMO?
Ok. Have fun.
But this specific grind could stand to get a bit reigned in.

wasting ur time is the actual goal since mmos birth

Does that make it good or acceptable design though?
