I have the impression that the main role in this patch is played not by the fact that you are lucky, but by the fact - How much money will you spend on it. I tryig to explain to myself that, this is a patch, was like - hey, let's not let people get the best gear too quickly, so they stay with us longer. Unfortunately, the effect is opposite - the drop is so low that people don't want to play, prolly if you drop something - is useless, if u wanna gear for your class - well... use trade broker, but price... ye price will be kill you. For example: AQ - 50+ runs, I saw ONE, just one gold chest.. chest for cloth's class ... NOT MAGICAL (this is also one big joke ... sorc, heal, ninja - all that cloth's class need magical stuff). Cards - 40min farming at low lvl mobs for ONE card. Is the patch a week away? Since then I have ONLY 3 mats for the circle and 6 mats for the belt .. I play heal, I do daily quests in a party of 3 (tank, dps), the problem starts when there is no dps, trust me - it's hard to find a replacement for dps , because NOBODY wants to do daily, because rewards is like nothing. I will not duplicate the rest, because all problems have been mentioned above by a jo0dnation.
Maybe something should change with trade broker the same - gear's prices are often inflated to such terribly high prices (I like TB from Vindictus or Black Desert Online).
With this patch I lost any desire to play, it doesn't make me play like I used to, I just have to do achivments and leave the game ... and wait as they fixes our tera (ye, our! Because this is our game, not theirs, we create this game.)
PEACE AND LOVE.
