It is also OK to show respect for people's time and discourage pathological behaviours.
Alas one doesn't need a degree in psychology to work out that forcing players to repeat a menial action over and over again with minuscule odds of achieving the goal does neither.

In a week or two you'll be able to run around Shadowfen like before, looting lots of nodes, and you'll get the drop much quicker. Right now, because everybody "has to have it" they're camping out at a single node and it's going to take longer.
It's a product of players wanting "all thing things" and wanting them immediately that's causing the problem.
I'm sure the drop rate is fine when you're farming and can get a node more than every 2 1/2 minutes.
I re-iterate, it's okay that not everybody has gotten the brand-new MYTHIC item within 24 hours of the release of the item.
Yes, I'll go get it. I'll farm for it 3 times because I like to finish the entire codex. But that's a "me" thing, and I'm not blaming anybody else for my time spent other than me. The lack of the kilt isn't going to prevent anybody from clearing any of the content in the game. (Now, if you want to talk about being a score-pushing, first in the world to complete the trifecta in Rockgrove type of group, then yes, it might, but that is a minuscule part of the population, and should not be the basis of any argument)

I mean, there's an amount of time spent farming a mythic that should be considered reasonable especially if all the other stuff took 3-5 hours and this one takes 12.

It's like this every patch with every new thing.
Everybody wants it right now. So everybody is farming it. So there's not enough nodes, not enough mobs, etc... People write dozens of threads, with hundreds of threads, on the forums complaining.
In a few weeks, when the hype is gone. The farm time goes to a reasonable time. And we rarely see any more threads on the topic.
Whatever, guess I take a big picture look at stuff, rather than immediate gratification. To each their own.

There is immediate gratification and there is altering my schedule to be able to farm BMH for two hours before going to work for 5 consecutive days for a single lead.
There is immediate gratification and there is farming Bthar-Zel for 6+ hours on different session with no lead and no indication on how much longer is going to take. It could be 1 second or 100 hours.
If portraying yourself as a 'big picture guy' makes you feel good excellent, I mean it.
There is joy to be found in delayed gratification too.
However wishing to know how long is going to take to fulfill an objective is not as objectionable a wish as you make it out to be. And enjoying pulling the metaphorical slot machine arm is not as wholesome as you portray it either.

I don't know what to say. You can give me 2 examples of where you've been unlucky with drops, but what about all the times you got stuff right away? The game would be boring beyond all belief if I knew exactly how long it would take to get a drop as you're suggesting.
Everything is a choice as to what's important, you get to decide that for yourself if it's important enough to do.
...and since I know nothing I say will change anybody's mind on any topic here, it is the internet after all, no sense in continuing.

Seems these Mythic sets need new and exciting ways to obtain them rather than having players mindless farm for riddled RNG drops. Be more creative. Have puzzles or kill certain foes in some order or some secret excavation in old delves.
