RNG is broken?

I've always been annoyed by RNG, but this is no longer funny:
Today is day 10 of the event, and in the 10 golden boxes, I've found
3x Style Page: Dapper Daredevil Hat
3x Style Page: Dapper Daredevil Belt
so far. A member of one of my guilds has even better luck: He's found
5x Style Page: Dapper Daredevil Jerkin (!)
in the 10 golden boxes so far.
What a load of crap! RNG was already terrible, but what RNG is doing now is truly the worst.

Furthermore, the current style pages of an event should be available as curated loot.
Golden Style pages from past events should not be included in the loot table of golden boxes, but rather in a grab bag that can be purchased from the Impresario or the Assistant's shop.

    If you got another Golden style page in your box it was in addition to the Dapper Daredevil one you got, which you were guaranteed to get (only exception is if you got the stirrups as a drop, which is worth 1000 trade bars).

    There are so many people asking to trade style pages for others that they need that it's super easy to trade for all the styles.

    Yes, I traded or sold them before the price dropped to zero.

    It would be great, though, if you could loot the other style pages yourself instead of getting the same style page 3 or 5 times...

    The style pages of recent years are junk to me... destroyed ... because...
    all my guild mates already own these and I don't have the patience to offer each of these style pages for 100 gold through the guild trader.

    Imagine it's Christmas and you're looking forward to your present.
    You open it and... wow... the same tie you've received in the last 5 years!

    Some players weren't playing last year, so they shouldn't get the chance to earn them for "free" from boxes... they're forced to pay other currencies for them?

    I have dozens of copies of them myself, I'll just stack them all up and destroy them all at once once the event is done, not a big deal.

    Old styles from events are - at least for some events - phased out after 2 (or 3) years of a loottable. That is something they should do for the anni-event as well.

    Regarding the older styles you still get.

    As it was already mentioned. Just collect and stack them. When the event is over destroy them, sell them as "complete" sets through the chat NOT a guild trader or give them as a complete set away for free to those who still need them.

    If I have all pages of a new style and at the end of an event got left over pages, I do get the missing pages, so that I will have complete sets of that style. Then I will sell those as a whole set through the chat. That way I do get a reasonable amount of gold and people who missed out on that style got a chance to get it.

    Which means these will be relatively cheap. And at least they ARE tradeable, and with gold bars being plentiful between the tomes and the event there not that hard to get.

    Its not like the drop rate is so low that you need to wait years to obtain the full set.

    Don't have to imagine. I've lived it. And appreciated it every time. :smile:
