Annoyed

[Chris-Luminheart]

I have been farming the new dungeon, Alazadaal's Legacy since its release a few days ago and im getting pretty annoyed because I have run it, at the time of writing this 87 times so far and i have not even seen the tank pants or maiming boots drop as those are the last 2 items i need for all the sets to be complete, now I understand Square is a big game company but leaving the 100% loot at the end of the ew dungeon but then taking it out of this one is just both unfair and complete stupidity on their part. Now I don't expect them to fix this mistake anytime soon I am just venting.

It's not "this one"; all cap level dungeons are like this. Only leveling dungeons drop guaranteed loot because it's expected that you upgrade your gear as you're leveling. Cap level dungeons give outdated loot that is easily outclassed by tomestone gear and raid gear, so the majority of people running this will be doing it for the tomestones from DR:Expert. If it dropped guaranteed loot you wouldn't be running it anymore either, so call them what you want but they've got you to run it 87 times, which is what they want, so stupid they are not.

Endgame dungeon gear basically exists for glamour (though sometimes you get recolored armor sets) since their ilvl is so low compared to normal and alliance raids you could be doing. And they want people to be running those dungeons for a while, so they don't give you any pity gear like they do in lvling dungeons. It's just how it is, I wouldn't call it unfair. It's just a deliberate grind.

Not saying I haven't felt the pain of grinding an endgame dungeon for ages and never seeing the piece of gear I was looking for. I must have done Ghimlyt Dark during the last week of Stormblood like 30+ times trying to get the tank chest piece, but it simply refused to drop. But that's RNG for you. I do wish that they'd make it so old expansions are guaranteed to give you a piece of gear for your class. I get they want grinds for current content, but I feel older dungeons could speed up the process.

Did you at least get the card, minion, and music roll? Feel free to share how long they took if so.
