There needs to be a currency for trials where after the 500th time you can trade for something else.

doing nMoL constantly for the 5th day in a row only to get 2 inferno alkosh staves is sorta ruining the game for me

ESO, like Monster Hunter, also has a desire sensor it seems. :P

farming for only 5 days and allready crying?

omg millenians are so millenians...

my first vma staff (ice decesieve) - 180+ run

first vma desired ( lightning sharpened at that moment, there was no transmutes in the game) - ~260 th run

infallible lightning staff - 300+ runs... got it

BSW fire staff - 1k + runs ( group/solo/chests/whatever) still no luck (but i saw 2 drops in party for other members)

am i crying? nope

You're crying about people crying.

OP the situation is not ideal, Transmutation was meant to alleviate some of the issues but as it's only a trait swap you still get screwed if there isn't a desired drop you want.
I was in favour of a token system in the past for x number of completions lets you buy one item. This is something DDO did and I appreciated it there.

Honestly easiest way to fix alot of this would be for zos to actually make a smart loot system that doesn't eat crayons...

Make magicka sets only appear on staves. Stamina sets only appear on stamina weapons. Allow 1 handed weapons except daggers to be a flex point for mag or stam since tanks and some still dw swords for mag dmg players still exsist.

Like in helra
vo would only drop on daggers, swords ,greatswords, axes, battle axes ,mauls maces, and bows.

Infallible only drop on staves swords, axes, maces.

No more vo resto staves, ice staves etc
And no more mauls and daggers of infallible. Would cut down the grind alot.

Maybe even toss in a smart looting system that detects your playstyle, like high max mag and spell dmg causes all drops to be magicka and healer related, and high health and armor causes tanking sets to drop, high wep dmg and stam makes stam sets drop.

Im sure die hards will complain that makes getting desired stuff too easy but why would we desire running same crap over and over for slim to no chance of gear that gets nerfed every dlc anyway making all that work worthless every 3 months when the meta changes. Id rather run content at my peak performance after a few runs getting my gear rather than play it til i hate it and once i get that sweet weapon i never wanna see that dungeon again.

And vma i feel like needs a special chest at the end where you may only loot one weapon of your choice but with random traits though.

That would absolutely suck for gearing up alts, though. You'd have to have the specific alt ready for that kind of content before you have a chance to get the gear. At which point you don't really need the gear anymore...

@Mettaricana
Shields should drop on every specc though.

Nah this is actually wrong. For example my tank would be using alkosh ice staff or lightning staff if they would actually drop. But what your proposing would make that impossible to drop.

For pvpy magic templar using shield and sword so magic sets that I need a sword and shield from.wouldnt drop either.

Vma getting to pick your weapon after 1 run shouldn't be allowed either. I am all for a token system where after like 10 tries you get a weapon of your choice in a random trait but definitely not after 1 attempt.
