I stopped playing V rising because the recipe drop-rate is so bad, I just got tired of attempting to kill the same boss over and over again and not getting the recipe I needed to advance. It is a game stopper for me. I never got the Merciless mace or one piece of that sets last armour I needed. The clam system no person used on my server. The game is not solo player friendly. The last boss in the Forest were you have to break into the fort. I needed 4 other players above L40 to take him down and they almost got killed and I had to heal three times. Perfect example of what is wrong with the game. To few ppl playing and only 40 players on a server? When will game devs stop using RNG? Just give players the option to pick one item they really need instead of lame RNG?
I don't understand this mentality. I understand and appreciate RNG rarity.
Without it, it's just a shopping list. Obtaining the reward just means you checked all the boxes. So what? Literally *everybody* can do it in nearly the same timeframe. Like it or not, that suspense is what hooks people and attaches them to the sense of accomplishment when they get what they came for.
Maybe I come from a different era but I appreciate rare drops and even rare spawns (bring on the randomized 36-72 hour random zone spawns circa EQ!). It feels so much more significant when you find/obtain that *thing* someone else doesn't have the patience to.
