ESO Loot System & Activity Finder Frustating

I am a big fan of Elder Scrolls since Morrowind. ESO is fantastic game. I have like 4 V16 characters (2 Healers and 2 DPS (Magicka & Stamina). I owned this game on PS4 and PC.

Yes i am completely frustrated with this weird loot system. I am regularly doing Veteran Undaunted and Orisinium Daily. I have below observations:

1. If i save like 20 Undaunted Keys or 20 Orisinium Reward then upon opening I may get 4-5 good items but on 20 days regularly if open then I get mostly Undaunted Set (VR 14 strange/ no body want to use this or even normal items????? )

2. Boss drops are pretty bad too jewelry and especially Helm in City of Ash, Crypt of Heart and WGT

3.Activity Finder is very bad, today it took my DPS two hours to get one group then i have been kicked... wow. developers should not wait for DLC release to apply small enhancements as it makes people frustrating.

4. Acitvirty Finder estimated time is changing randomly, no Estimated Time??? is this a bug or system is on trial basis working? show us my number in a queue so I can see my number for a daily..

5. Why having too many bound items? first MMO with this weird concept....

I am only doing undaunted/orisnium in PVE and thats getting hell waste of time....

I still have 20K crowns and on ESO since September last year..but I am very unhappy due to poor loot and Activity Finder...

Developers need to listen players, this game is excellent but becoming frustrated day by day...

New DLC patch have many good enhancements as well but waiting is frustrating and if that not helps its kind of losing a good loyal customer...

    1. Good news is gold keys will have a guaranteed shoulder next patch. Orsinium rewards' RNG sucks, though - I agree.

    2. Meh, non-undaunted helm drops in dungeons (exc. WGT/ICP and CoA for vr14) aren't that great at the moment. Helm RNG is what it is, personally I have no massive problem with it and there is at least the vendor alternative.

    3. Yeah, AF is driving me insane. After Thieves' Guild it was absolutely brilliant, 2/3 minute queues were the average... over time it appears to have fallen back into its old state - don't know if this is a ZoS adjustment or if less people are using it.

    Just as a bit of constructive advice - you've listed your grievances, why don't you go ahead and suggest some solutions? I'm not being sarcastic or patronising here - yes, your suggestions may just fall into the bottomless void of the forums, but a lot of people are really receptive to someone who gives suggestions to help make the game better, whilst showing that they are considering the game and player-base as a whole.

    I am trying to be postive on forum and in game but ESO need overhaul in Loot and Economy System that developers may not be listening. Atleast i created many threads and never have their reply.

    ESO is now relying on three currencies (Gold, AP, Crowns ????), coming guys give a break and these bound items need better adjustments..

    Loot and rewards in general are completely crap! Is not just the RNG so nery badly implemented its also the quality of rewards are completely idiotic! Why the hell a VR16 should loot at 99% VR15 crap items in Orsinium dailies?

    This activity finder is not proving any useful for a DPS instead wasting time in queue...

    Ya I was super pumped to come back after a short hiatus to jump into DB and hit up the group finder to start running dungeons regularly. Unfortunately, I quickly learned this wasn't gonna happen for me. I kept queueing up for the daily PLEDGE as a dps yes but I still waited 50 minutes the. The game crashed. Put the game back on, hopped in queue, 3 mins later crash. The 3 mins to crash would continue to repeat several more times before I decided I couldn't handle anymore. Now, here I sit, having just purchased DB, something I've awaited since day one in pc beta, no longer excited to play at all. If it's not chugging along or crashing then it's unable to find groups or both. Zos did have a great idea with this game and I may still consider it to be my favorite of all time, but I can say this ONLY because I do anticipate these CRITICAL issues being resolved. Now one thing is for sure, if these problems are not resolved in a timely manner, there's NO WAY I will continue to play and ABSOLUTLY NO CHANCE Zos will see ONE MORE PENNY OF MINE. I actually overdrafted my bank account accidentally when I purchased DB. Can you imagine how I'm feeling? Even when I do decide to try again I can rest assured it will not be without double digit crashes

    Even if you get grouped by AF at non peak time after an hour, the lag in the dungeon makes it unplayable and unpleasant, cos you can't see in real time what's going on, pressed the button switched the weapon and it didn't even happen. Dungeon becomes too hard now.
