Square Enix should really address dungeon loot drops...

Feels like I'm watching a goalpost ballet in here.

Right?
They're making me dizzy.

Good points.
I wonder if someone out there working on feedback modeling. At the very least it could make for an interesting paper, though that might just be me finding devs minds fascinating.

Hey, a goalpost!

*punts ball through goalpost*

Um... do footballs normally scream as they fly through the air? I don't really play sports... >.>

Is that post about me?
Or just a funny comment I'm thinking about too hard?

You're talking about the one that can be bought from the armor vendor in Ishgard, right? Unfortunately, it's green by default and trying to dye it leads to... unsavory results. It just doesn't look anywhere as good as the Berserker set. If there are other variations, I'm not familiar with them.

!!! This is one of my pet peeves too - It is delightful to get old dungeon/alliance raid sets as dyeable versions later down the road, but the new versions do not always dye so beautifully compared to the original.

My favourite example here is Demon Fending set. The original's details and colours are lovely and vibrant. Chromite clone makes it all flat and monotone and Forgiven is not any better.

It could be both. Do you feel kicked around in an act of goalpost ballet?

No one has mentioned this, but will the removal of belts and the additions of coffers possibly help with this for when the next expansion hits?

The belts' removal will, but only proportionately (and that portion isn't much). Coffers, depending on their implementation, could be pretty huge, as even if it's limited to a single slot, it'd still constrain the gear drops to the chosen job's.

If they can't implement a glamour log because tech issues, then they could at least add reliable ways of acquiring pure rng gear.

But... that'd be sensible.

The only coffers I'm familiar with are the ones that have had a full set of gear in them, ala 2B. Is there a different form that's being talked about or am I thinking along the same lines you are?
