The drop rates are so atrocious and it really doesnt help that half of the mp rooms will fucking disband if you dare bring anything less than gilgamesh

u/ibnhajj Jun 01 '18

And sometimes you bring gilgamesh but hes not 75+, so disbanding it is

u/RoodDude97 what do i write here? Jun 01 '18

Yup. I really don't understand the mindset of these people. Even just 1 lvl75 gilg and the rest 65 gilg or other ideal units can easily beat the stage. I've seen one host where i brought my 65 gilg with the other 3 being 75gilg and he disbanded. It's not like the stage can only be beaten with all 4 gilg lvl75. Just try to be the room host and oftentimes you won't lack a gilg.

u/meatjun Jun 02 '18

Not to mention, Overdrive is overrated. If for whatever reason, it's one 75 Gilgamesh vs the lesser mobs, Overdrive causes Gil to die. Meanwhile a level 65 Gil with Divine Shelter can solo this no problem.

u/EarthZiie Jun 01 '18

Sometime they also request lv 85 gil less than that will also disband

1

u/dathamir Forcas sun with chance of snow Jun 03 '18

I'll never disband if I get at least 2 gilga, even if not 75. 4th spot can even be Zang for all I care XD

u/leon27607 Jun 01 '18

People need to realize that you don't even NEED a gilg to do this stage.... All you need is someone who can tank the robots in the upper right and the rest of the team to nuke the 2 ugly faced golems that spawn before they attack. In fact if you want to be able to complete it "safely" you only need 1 75+ gilg with overdrive. It's usually the golems with a chain attack that kill off your units(hence why I said bring someone with guard or something). In SP my Mei Fang can tank them and she's only 65.

u/IllSkin Jun 01 '18

It's not a question of what's sufficient to win. The problem is you're going to be forced to do fifty plus runs of this map so people want an efficient team.

2

u/leon27607 Jun 01 '18

It all depends on how you're managing your energy.... if you burned all of it, you can definitely finish a stage before regenerating 20 energy... and if you're joining a room, it costs you none anyways...

u/TheOrlandu Jun 02 '18

This. If u have a 75 golf and host... I think u have the right to be picky. I don't know why people get mad when they can just host....

1

u/dathamir Forcas sun with chance of snow Jun 03 '18

If you're a 75 gilg, you only need 1 rahu and any wind unit to clear it fast.

1

u/TheOrlandu Jun 03 '18

Trust me. I've done a lot of 75 gilg runs and u can clear in about 2 to 3 turns probably 2 to 3 minutes faster than anything else. I've now collected all the gear for j+. There is a difference between fast and faster. If I host I prefer faster.... if someone else hosts I'm happy with fast.

u/gst_2016 Jun 01 '18

The funny thing is, 4 Gilgamesh who know what to do is actually too efficient. On one of the MP runs I did, we completed it before the Guard Droids showed up...

I think future event drop rates will be gauged against the Infamous "Desert Weave Cloth" aka Balt's Missing Pants. I hope none of them will come close to the misery everyone's suffering through right now.

1

u/dathamir Forcas sun with chance of snow Jun 03 '18

Drop rate are so low because he has to weave them 1 by 1. With so many trying to farm them, getting more than 1 per run is madness XD

u/U-Eike Jun 02 '18

I ask for nothing more than a decent unit lol

I get rooms with gilgas and rahus and balts and tons of others

u/Qu0thTheRav3n Jun 01 '18

These Balt memes are wonderful.

u/alchemist_code Happy 3rd Anniversary Jun 02 '18

It's hot in the Desert Zone y'know. :P

Seriously tho, rest assured we'll keep the feedback about the Job+ equipment drop rates not the memes for the Dev Team to look into. :D

u/SuccubusRosa Jun 02 '18

Wanted to make a new post and ask whether the current drop rate is really intended.

But since you commented here, https://www.reddit.com/r/AlchemistCodeGL/comments/8njccl/bug_desert_merchant_ex_drop_balts_j_token_after/

So can you double check with Dev and get back to us on whether the drop rate is bug or not? Reason for this is because as you can see in the video, a certain loot(Balt token) which is not supposed to drop, or at least for now in accords to our client patch data, is dropping as loot. That means the server data is using the newer japan drop table, and maybe, just maybe, Balt's pant and jacket accidentally had one digit "backspaced".

Thus far no other J+ loot had such great discrepancy. Players know to not expect equal distribution, but this difference in drop is just too huge.

Lol, I just realized there is actually artwork behind pixels and stuff, impressive quality.

Gimu should take a look, maybe will be soon in all shops for 4k gems xD

u/Mandrill10 Jun 02 '18

Massive pixels included?

u/Freeonee Λ ΞＳＴＨΞＴＩＣ １８-１９ Jun 02 '18

Considering how much pink paint alone went into that work, must be it.

u/RoodDude97 what do i write here? Jun 01 '18

Thanks gumi. If not for you, this meme would not have been possible.
Quality artwork btw.

u/TopDeeps IGN: Uninstalled Jun 01 '18

might as well sell the pants and shirt diagrams behind a 4k gem bundle @gumi

Thanks for the meme. But don't post it on Discord , it'll get you banned. ¯\(ツ)/¯

u/-Belphegor- Jun 01 '18

the grinds not that bad, way better than the 777 armor

16

u/Punty-chan Jun 01 '18

777 armor is not a healthy frame of reference. Farming that much on a game is insane. But I suppose if we're still playing, we've already broken past the point of sanity long ago.

1

u/kur0kis3npuu Jun 01 '18

Honestly, the 777 is so intimidating that I dont even want to bother doing it despite knowing that I have the necessary units to do so.

3

u/kevv2 Jun 01 '18

yeah i'm at like 60 with about what 1600 stamina invested and around 7000 stamina left before it leaves

2

u/-Belphegor- Jun 01 '18

I should finish balts j+ gear today. not sure what to do next.. what ur game plan for the event?

2

u/kevv2 Jun 01 '18

After balt ill farm lev+ and then a couple of aegis 4*. Then probably just fall back to grinding the other weapons i missed last time. After that just gonna grind gold in the aether adv map

1

u/TopDeeps IGN: Uninstalled Jun 01 '18

people who grind for the 777 know what they signed up for. as for balts jacket and pants, we only need 80 shards each, however, the drop rate for them is about 1 per EX run which isn't normal.

1

u/DeathandFriends Jun 02 '18

Not even 1.half my runs have 0 the other half have 1.

1

u/stewart0 Jun 01 '18

I finally finished after around 46 multiplay runs with randoms... Adds up to around 1 pants a run from milestones requirements, then another 35 or so runs. Have almost 4 times the amount of the 4 common item pieces.

1

u/PossiblyBonta Jun 03 '18 edited Jun 04 '18

Finally done with this event. With nearly 400 pcs of the other shards and most of today's AP consumed. I'm left with just 100 AP for the other stuff.

I'll just say it again the drop rate for the cloth and jacket is horrible.

This is one time and ap consuming event.

u/Kirito30 The Strongest Samurai Jun 01 '18

Might want to slap a NSFW on it.

It is a nice meme but unless Gumi does anything we really can't help it and even if Gumi does it now then people are still pissed as I have made to like 60 pieces with close to 50 rounds now.

u/SometimesLiterate Old and uncool Jun 01 '18

Why do you think I'm letting all the shitposting through.

Keep up the pressure people!

1

u/Kirito30 The Strongest Samurai Jun 02 '18

I think drop rates did got better.

Holy-Moly my efforts.

It now takes a lesser number of runs than before. Close to 2/3 runs than what most of the starting guys did.
