The difficulty curve in the game has... problems...

i ran p1s when it released with my fc and for a month straight i didn't get a single piece of gear. largely in part to our static having multiple people who would run it before the rest of us because they wanted to prog faster. every week it would be 1 chest runs. progging feels really, REALLY bad when u continue to see everyone else getting kitted out with BiS. the static folded before we even made it to p2s. i've got tomes, but tomes don't really help when they take 2 months to get 1 item

Honestly that's just a bad static. I would've jumped ship the moment one chest clears became the norm.
