Loot: Heavy Sacks (of crap)

Please remove provisioning ingredients from the loot table for heavy sacks.
I don't need 10-20 rice, yerba mate, ginger, etc.
If I did, I could get that amount and more in under a minute by looting crates, barrels, and baskets in most places (stolen or not!)
I swear to god, if the next sack drops carrots, I will head down to your headquarters with said carrots and proceed to shove them in your server hamster's pouches >:(

    Got 10x Kuta the other day and about glitched. I think though that if they were to remove less valuable things from the sacks, they would have to decrease their spawn rate considerably as they did with Thieves troves.

    I would personally prefer seeing them in the world more often than hardly at all but having a better chance of phat lewts, but that's just me.

    Please remove PvP/Trials from the game.
    I don't partake in zergs, epeen, elite gameplay etc.
    If I did, I could complete that content and more in under a week by solo gameplay.
    I swear to god, if the next expansion contains PvP/Trials, I will head down to your headquarters with said expansion and proceed to shove them in your server hamster's pouches >:(

    *Edit.
    I should point out I am just having some harmless fun, I disagree with the removal but wanted to do it in a silly way.

    I have gotten the 5 Kuta's twice, once a few months ago, the other this last weekend.

    I think the sacks should continue to offer up all Crafting Mats. And, if you know where to look for them, they are quite abundant. There are even some places where the Spawn Rate is quite fast too.
    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

    Lol. However there are others that may like getting provisioning matts drom hesvy sacks and it makes sense heavy sacks would provide all crafting matts from the original offerings of the game.

    Keep the provisioning ingredients (you have no idea how much I perk up when I loot 10 coffee!) but add a small chance to find other provisioning improvement mats.

    LOL. The heavy sacks are fine as they are.

    Yes, they will drop useless items most of the time. That's the necessary tradeoff for them dropping valuable items now and then.

    Also, heavy sacks used to drop far fewer items that were even more useless (like a single Starmetal). They've been buffed sky-high relative to what they used to be.

    I wonder just bad some of Tamriel's residents must be having it they think 10 carrots are worthy of a Loot Sack.

    Last time I got something "valuable from a Heavy Sack was sometime before IC went live, and I still regularly get 1x Racial Craft Mat.

    They are very, very far from fine.

    The percentage of "stuff I"m really not excited about" in these seemed to go way up at 1T. Heavy Sacks have since downgraded from "Oh, Cool!" to "Oh, okay, I guess so" for me.

    Gosh. The rng gremlins must not like you very much.

    I got 3 kutas, 10 rubedite ore, and 10 rubedo last night, along with yerba mate, and lemons out of 5 bags.

    I think they are just fine as is. RNG is what it is.

    Not for the majority of the people opening them, I have never found one bag with kuta's in them at all yet ever since I came back 2 months ago and I probably have opened nearly 500+ heavy sacks since then.
