Endgame loot balance (HH20/SCXM)
In some regards it feels like the rewards from some dungeons are not worth the effort put into them.
I've compiled thoughts from my own and friends:
I. Harrowhold loot was buffed with feedstock, nocts, and etching boxes. The rewards are okay but the drop rate of luxury items such as dragons and innerwear appear close to zero. Given how many raids clear each week (around 5-6 on MT and 0-2 on other servers) and the number of players that roll for loot (20), the drop rate could be uncommon, rather than extreeeemely rare. I've witnessed 13ish clears within the past 3 weeks without anything special drop, which is pretty unfortunate
.
II. Sky Cruiser Extreme is abundant in Deathwrack/VM9 gear materials, but those who can clear do not need the mats as much as those who cannot clear. VM mats could be pushed to Perimos, which seems to be the target of most LFG parties.
III. Smart dyads from Sky Cruiser Extreme are very desired, but unfortunately they share the same loot table as dragons, innerwears, and weapon designs. Given the low number of players that roll for loot (5), and the growing number of clears and capable players, drop rate of innerwears and dragons are fine. However, it would be awesome to see smart dyad structures drop like how dyad structures dropped in SCHM when it first came out.

IV. pls take out the VM7 mats from sky cruiser extreme, it isn't 2016 anymore
V. pls make the blessed scrolls from harrowhold stack with normal blessed scrolls. everyone is getting cancer and turning into skeletons

Any feedback/criticism/support would be cool.

we should not focus on loot for temporary dungeon but more on dungeons that we currently have like harrowhold and vshm i do think smart dyad should drop from harrowhold because it is the hardest content just like how we only have gold noctenium from harrowhold
we should focus on hard dungeon to come like manglemire and dice dungeon eu currently have manglemire clear event that give rewards it would be cool to maybe get VSHM clear event reward or clear event reward from other dungeons
i also think stuff should not be locked behind phase 4 of harrowhold you should be able to get pve loot from pvp too because there is pvp players how come you can only get dyad and dragon and fancy oblit just from PVE?
Anyway... if you feel its not worth the effort then.... dont run them. You arent forced to. If everything makes you unhappy....plus wasnt it players like you who are always going on about "this game too easy we want a challenge" challenge doesnt include loot.
PS: LesbianVi u go do your GG, Shut up posts might appear too
There is always an excuse for it, I didn't say anything on any matter, but still you see better rewards for SCEM posts.
I agree VM8 stuff shouldn't be there, but still it is not part of our dungeon rotation, it is an event, it would be better do discard VM8 but you knew the loot before getting started, there was a table for it, you could talk about it before.
the funny thing is, fang drop rate on p3 is abyssmal
we had 3 clears without fang so far
other raid had 3 clears seeing 1 fang only, etc.
they already handed everything out like candy
the only thing I could think of at this point is smart dyads, but if they let you farm those now then what are they gonna use to hold leverage over you in the future?
only thing I could say is that if the content doesn't seem to be worth your time then don't do it.
