Random drops with grinding put me off

B1GREDMONSTER
I don't mind grinding it can be fun in the right situation but when you mix in random drops it's not very fun

I don't have a problem with getting veteran ranks and getting the new currency in imperial city it's consistent not random im not going and killing enemies thinking will this enemy give me the last 2 stones I need it's after I kill that enemy I'm done but if I need a certain recipe to complete my list it gets boring after days worth of grinding to find it or I could get lucky and find the recipe in the first half an hour of grinding sure I could scour every guild trader in hopes that someone is selling that recipe I would be willing to complete 500 provisioning writs if they only gave a new recipe but I could finish 1000 without getting the recipe I need and if I want a certain monster set I may get it with the first group dungeon boss or undaunted treasure chest or it could take a month then I finally get the helmet and its light not heavy then the grind continues

Just so you know I do join groups of friends when I need to grind to try and speed it up yes it increases the odds but the annoying chance remains

So does anyone agree or do you like grinding for a random amount of time just waiting for that one last item needed to finish your character build or that last trophy fish

    Random drop is there so we dont get thing so easily, if players get things too easily, they want new things.
