With double the raid size, and more than double the lockout timer, bosses in ST will have to drop a minimum of 12 items of loot(depending on number of bosses) to keep up with the current loot drop rates.
That’s a bit yikes.
what if you dont get BIS gear? think leveling to 60 will be too hard, or… ?

I don’t have BiS gear on any char I’ve been running clearing Gnomer with every reset since first, I don’t expect it. But to keep up with current drop rates that’s the number that would have to drop.

this assumes P3 wont just be thrice the length.
I don’t see them doing that. Heck, I’d be impressed if each boss dropped more than 4. It’s their way of making us play longer.

There is a hard capped limit of how long you can play on a Seasonal rotation.
You don’t need level 50 bis.

Thats why it wont happen.
nah it only needs to drop 6 pieces
I have found reading comprehension is a skill that is severely lacking here.
Wouldn’t it be 8-9?
If there are more bosses than 6, even less
I’ll bet they drop 4-5 though
I believe the number of bosses in ST is 8, so that’s a factor. Some bosses in Gnomer also only drop two non-vanity equipment pieces per kill, so that would be 8-9 instead of 12. Even those numbers would be ridiculous though.
There may be more of an emphasis on tokens, which may mean less wasted loot. Loot distribution would then be more efficient in order to maintain similar loot pacing as P1 and P2.
what if you dont play phase 3? think is necessary play SoD, or…?
Considering how much gear currently goes to waste I doubt 12 pieces will need to drop, maybe 4-5 plus toy items but that is it.
You don’t need level 50 bis.
Who says they need to keep up with the current drop rates? You’re making an assumption that this is a metric that matters and is worth making a change for.

no, as long as you pay your sub, you don’t have to play any version of the game.
How does that make people play longer when you can only do it once a week? You don’t make any sense.
I don’t see that being the case. Phase 3 feels like it got rushed early because the majority of people didn’t like phase 2. I feel it’ll be the same length of phase 1 at most.
