In over 30 NoS raid wins our guild has seen just one drop. Yeah, I know about RNG but this is ridiculous. Compared to past expansions, with the possibility to make over 30 two hand weapons at this point, it's just too rare.
If Power had dropped 30 times, then everything else on that loot table wouldn't have been dropping making this a different complaint.
EQ uses an advanced form of AI RNG, where once you buy or acquire the item then the drop rates are increased to 100%, and that’s the only item you’ll see drop. Also, it uses your WiFi and pulse sensor in your mouse to read your mind and desires to reduce the drop chances.
it could be worse! like 1 finally drops and instead of a melee class who would actually use it getting it...goes to an SK to rot in their bag mostly instead
I was alt raiding in a guild recently and had an essence of finesse (1 hander) drop. It sold to a wizard for what was...roughly 2-3 months worth of dkp. Gotta love it.
It's part of the reason I love raiding there, so much entertainment to be had if you look at it from that perspective.
Maybe the anniversary raid this year will have lot of nice weapons in it. It sure delivered last year. Only just gave it up for Pathmaster Kharin's Interjection https://items.eqresource.com/items.php?id=169763. People are so focused on saving dkp for the the player made drop that they completely ignored it. It’ll do until the anniversary raid comes and goes, or I spend the coin for the essence.
Not sure what is funnier... The guild/raid leader that allowed a wizard to loot a 1h weapon before rogues and other melee classes... Or the wizard who wanted a 1h over a 2h...
