Monster Set Shoulders vs. Helms - Why The Current System?
orinthol
✭✭
The current method for obtaining monster set shoulder pieces is a bit droll. At first I believe, to many, the key system was a breath of fresh air. Statistically, it certainly is not. To make valuable customers jump over such an enormous hurdle -- more like through a very tiny flaming ring of spikes -- is over the top. I understand that there are people running every Undaunted Daily, with all 12 of their characters, every day. Good for them.
I'm not typing concerning my assumptions regarding how many do it, or to make any statements about those that do. I commend their dedication to obtaining the items they desire. I just want to objectively point out that the unlimited ability to farm the helm pieces, compared to a limited capacity for obtaining shoulder pieces, isn't consistent. There doesn't appear to be any rationale for the current system.
Some suggestions include the following.
1.) Add monster set shoulder pieces to the weekly Golden vendor.
EDIT I was not aware that the shoulders can already be procured this way. Good information.
2.) Add more Undaunted Reward Chests to spread out the loot table.
3.) Add shoulder pieces somewhere within the dungeon sub-boss loot table.
In any case, it doesn't seem right that one type of piece should require significantly more time and luck to obtain than the other. I'd love to read some other perspectives, and any constructive input, regarding the current system. If it shouldn't be adjusted, I'd value a reasonable and deferential explanation as to why. Thank you for your attention and time.

✭✭Shoulder pieces do appear in the Golden vendor - this is the only way I've acquired them.

✭ESO is not known for a good loot system sadly. I hope it's something they're seriously going to expand and make better here real soon.
But ZOS soon is 1+ year and ignore all customer feedback.1 -

Thank you. It seems I've just been very unlucky with what weeks I've been able to check the Golden vendor. This is definitely helpful information. I'll edit my original post to reflect this. Thanks again.0
