"Complain about luck is complete bullsh*t" <--fixed for you.


I'm sorry, but you lack the comprehension skills required to fix anything for anybody.

I asked for measurable progress, that means that every time you beat content you get closer to obtaining a reward.

You know which content fits my statement to a T?

Garuda.

I'll give you a minute to pick your jaw off the floor.

Done?

Heres what happens when/if you beat Garuda: (pay attention, this is important)

You get a Headdress. (Two(2) if you speed run)

EVERY TIME!

but you need 40 to get a weapon, that's 40 fights per weapon, and I very much doubt that you're so much of a badass that 40 victories is equal to getting something handed to you, we're talking 140~280 runs for a 7/7.

Now I'll give you a star for understanding how to bold up text. ☆ <-- all yours.

luck should only work for you and never against you.
Now you're killing Garuda and working your way towards 40 seals, this is all effort, you earned this, but suddenly! you see a Garuda's Scream in your rewards! oh look at that you got lucky, this isn't going to happen very often, and you're already half way through your original set, are you going to stop?

Probably not, you're going to get it finished for another weapon.

That's measurable progress and that's how luck works for you, and its great.

We need more of this.


That is what I want.

===========================

Now lets look at how luck works against you PLUS no measurable progress:

400 Cutter's Cry runs, at a rate of 5 a day, 7 days a week for a total of 80 days.

That's almost 3 months of doing just Cutters Cry every day for about 3 and a half hours.

Where is your Darklight Cuirass? you don't have! not because you didn't put in enough time and effort. NOPE! but because you're not lucky enough to have it.

All your time effort and mad skillz got you nothing.

On the other hand some elf(hate elves) just finished his first ever Vale run on his WAR with a veteran group and just got his Heavy Darklight Armor and is now hitting on Lalafells with it. (the scoundrel!)

That is the kind of world you think is fair, and I'm spoiled for disagreeing with you.

Edit: if you have the money to sink it on buying the weapon and doble meld even on first try, you still got the money somehow no?
You level the craft > you gather the materials > you buy the materia > you meld it > you double mel- BOOM!!!! Screw you and your effort, this is RNG territory!

You try again. BOOM!!!

Again BOOM!!!

BOOM!!!

0/21



Meanwhile in Ul'dah.

The same Elf from earlier just got his Triple melded T4 Pants with 28STR 30VIT on his first try.

1/1

He must have put in more effort than you.


Hint: He didn't.
