Loot System isn't ready for Launch...

So....are we always going to be able to buy dungeon loot? Cuz I really think that defeats the purpose for dungeons...

And why is it in SM that you can go through an entire run - and only 1 piece of Blue gear drops sometimes, and then suddenly on another run 4 golds drop?

I understand the loot may have been ridiculous in K-Tera - but I don't think its been improved.

Firstly I feel that just doing a dungeon to complete the quests isn't really worth it, yay 1 run, next dungeon, I'll just buy the gear from the Auction (its really not that expensive).

Secondly Spending an hour in 1 dungeon, downing 3 bosses and not getting a single drop feels like a waste of time...

And I'm sure it'd be nice to trade between servers...but truthfully groups should ALWAYS have it on Roll - not random loot. (But of course they don't).

What are you talking about? Certain bosses drop blues, certain bosses drop golds. The amount of loot they drop is ALWAYS the same. it does not change.

There's nothing wrong with the loot system....In fact I think it's quite stellar. I wish it was automatically set to roll on class loot instead of automatically being set to round robin no class rolling, but otherwise its fine, drops are fine, im noticing more loot in this game than in other mmos, actually.

If the loot system is like that that sucks.. I dont want to Run the dungeon and not even hav a single Drop. And when you say buy the dungeon loot do you mean ppl can buy dungeons loot from Vendor?

Not true. Ran SM 4 times now. First run, got 1 blue from the last boss. Second run, got 1 Blue from the Second Boss, 3rd Run - got 4 golds from the last boss, and just did a guild run and NOTHING dropped...

seems like it changes to me.

And I'm more upset with how pointless dungeons feel. Why would I do a dungeon more than once? When I can just buy all the loot drops for stupid cheap? At least sell them for more than 10-15 gold....I mean at 27 I had 32 gold, and bought a gold weapon and scrolled it to plus six? Kindof feel like thats a bit lame...

But I forget how easy the West likes it...

Sometimes bosses drop nothing, but it's damn rare. Sometimes they drop a gold, or more, or a gold and a blue, or blues, or whatever. It's pretty random, as all loot in all the other games are.

As for the dungeon loot, he's complaining they're BoE. Big deal. It's low level junk. It means nothing in the end.

Yes. The gold drops and blue drops from bosses are ALWAY Bind on Equip. You can sell ALL loot drops on the Broker.
