Can we please fix the damn loot tables?

Been running Scholo non-stop trying to get necropile and dreadmist pieces. Almost 30 runs at this point. I’ve seen every single mail, leather, and plate piece drop, often times multiple times per run. I’ve seen necro robe drop exactly once, which I of course lost, and exactly zero pieces of dreadmist gear. This isn’t a challenge at this point, it isn’t even work, it’s just stupid and not fun. I get you shouldn’t expect to see everything you want the first time you run a dungeon, but there’s absolutely no reason why multiple pieces of the same mail piece should drop when there’s not even any mail users in the group. If people want to talk about QOL changes, how about fixing the idiotic dungeon drop algorithm so people can feel like they’re actually making meaningful progress instead of just straight up wasting their time?

Yes, because it’s stupid and not fun. I have so many hours a week that I can play the game. Wasting them never getting a drop because of broken loot tables isn’t fun.

I thought RNG only existed in BFA. How odd.

i have never seen one hoj appear ever.
im certain the devs cut the loot tables after fast levelers made 60.

I don’t think we can fix the loot tables, actually.

How should they fix it? The cloth sets are on the same table as those pieces you mentioned. They all have the same chance to drop as each other.

So what are they supposed to do? You can’t make them higher, because then those who are looking for the other pieces could be in a worst situation than you are.

Working as intended.

You flip a coin 30 times. 50 times. 100 times. Hell you’re so bored that you decide to flip the same coin 500 times. It lands on tails every. single. time. It frustrates you because it never landed on heads. Guess what? Random is random. Try again.

There is nothing to fix because there is nothing broken.

They could make it so the same piece doesn’t drop multiple times per run. They could make it so that the only pieces that drop are meant for people in the current group. They could make it so that each piece ACTUALLY has an equal chance at dropping, because right now they most certainly do not. I’ve seen the mail gloves or boots drop at least once, sometimes more than once, every single time I’ve ran the instance. That’s not random, that’s stacked, and it’s broken.

Which makes finally getting that item feel even more epic.

Hang in there. It will drop!

I had to solo-farm LBRS at level 70 before my druid boots FINALLY dropped from that spider. I must have killed her 30 times.

You would hate diablo 3 :joy:

Fixing implies it isn’t working as intended. Rare actually used to mean something when this game was made. Suck it up zoom zoom

You completely misunderstand the point of an MMORPG huh? Hint: the games are designed to make you play as much as possible.
