You may not think it’s required to be in the game.
I don’t see a reason why it’s such a detriment that it can’t be in the game.
It takes a little more patience. Time. Any person who wants it, will get it. Has got it.
I don’t think you should have 1 or 2 systems in place for every rare item/ mob / event in the game. That’s boring. It has no power progression. It’s not even on the hypothetical heel of “needing” an item in game.
While this may be a small point to the overall conversation. I respect a player that gets something like Breezebiter, immediately. I understand what they went through for that.
I revel in those moments.
