How can such horrid primal drop rates even exist?

[Lucidus]

I wouldn't care in the least bit about the drop rates on primal weapons if it weren't for the fact that they're likely to be unobtainable come 2.0. The clock is ticking. I feel like it's extremely unfair for someone who has been a loyal and dedicated player on this game and has actually completed all the endgame content at least a handful of times to not have a sure way of obtaining items which will be removed. Having primal weapons in 2.0 will basically say "I was here in 1.x and was dedicated enough to experience the endgame". So I can imagine someone who has been here from the start feeling really shitty about not being able to get their primal weapons before the servers go down. Especially the ones who have rightfully earned them but just have horrid luck. That's kind of a slap in the face for your loyal supporters.

A very serious, and I think fair suggestion would be to dramatically increase the drop rates/alter the primal loot system about a month or so before the servers go down. This would give those who have rightfully earned their weapons a chance to get them before time runs out. I doubt this would happen, but at that point, having that "carrot on a string" will no longer be necessary. It will no longer about be about stretching the content out, and more about giving people who are capable of consistent wins what they deserve.

Can anyone think of a reason for them not to consider this?
