I don't like RNG grinding in any MMO.

This one wasn't BAD. but like...

Man can't you just like have me grind 999 of something? Ya know lol

For me grinding is fun when I'm building towards something and I can see the progress.
When it's RNG, you can enter into these states of frustration because you're no longer seeing any visible progress. You're going fate to fate, CE to CE and nothing for hours.

I know for my last Demiatma I as stuck getting the Verdigris one. I was definitely crashing out at the end.

Ask for the phantom jobs.

I do think that there should be some form of pity system for those.

Either a Job soul fragment where 10 times and you can make a Soul Shard?

OR

If you max out allllll the other jobs they are automatic upon completing the CE. I think that's fair and fun gameplay.
