Now generally you offer the AL gaming community good/ constructive post & sts listens to your comments & reasoning alot. With that being said this is a GAME. It's not real life where everyone wants to be rich, own a mansion and a luxury car. When so many people spend REAL MONEY in this game to buy Plats/Ankhs/Pots/Kits etc; and they GET ZERO return "that mr.energizeric is a problem". There doesn't need to be SUCH A LOW drop rate, poor RNG system as we have now in AL video game. People literally become upset when they feel they've been burned and the money they've spent gives them nothing.
I understand you like rare, hard to find, collectors items.. BUT when all is said & done in this game what can one do with all the rare/arcane/mythic items you collected? Nothing at all... you aren't able to sell them for a cash refund, plat refund etc; "You're ONLY able to enjoy them here in Arcane Legends" ... I don't see the big deal with increasing RNG back to what is was before & just letting SO MANY players Enjoy the game a bit more.
There are FAR to many "i'm tired of the RNG or drop rate threads" for it not to be a problem in this game. It's a bad problem and I absolutely don't agree with you that the reward system should be kept to a small percentage. This game is a hobby for people, no1 here is a Pro AL gamer where we r compensated etc.
I do commend STS for listening and making the double odds planar chest... That was a positive step in the right direction towards the player base... still the RNG system in AL needs an overhaul
Rare shouldn't = opening 1000 + locked crates @15 plat a piece roughly ($809) to get that 1 or 2 arcane item(s) that allows you to really enjoy the game. Or opening hundreds of planar chest while I opened 20 & got a fossil & recipe.
When people get a little bit of return on their investment, they are willing to spend more & more.. I know I am. For example in Taichi Panda you spend money & at least get items that are worth it to help build your character..it may not be the exact item you wanted, but it is still worth the money you've spent and it makes u spend more. You don't come up totally empty handed because of RNG luck.
Lets not forget this is a GAME that a Gaming company has been doing a good job with... just some much needed "luck based" aspects have to be improved.
