There has to be a better way to get gear in Cyrodiil

I just spent 684,000 alliance points to buy 2 weapons from the Elite Gear Vendor in Cropsford. All I was there for was an Inferno and Resto staff from the Grace of the Ancients set. This set only has 15 items in it, I still don't have 3 of them, but I do have 29 rings and 11 necklaces that I don't need. I can sell them at the guild trader, but that doesn't make up for all AP. If y'all can't just let us purchase the specific items we need, then PLEASE at least separate the weapons from the armor and or jewelry. The jewelry drop rate is always higher than everything else. I had to purchase 57 Unknown Grace of the Ancients armament bags to get 2 weapons, that is excessive.

    it's not particularly excessive when you consider how long it takes to make those alliance points. With double ap its only 3-4h solo which in comparison to dungeon farming isn't really that long.

    But you can purchase the items you need. Use the guild trader system that was specifically designed for that and find the pieces you need that others are selling. That is how I cleared 60% of my PVP stickerbook and now only have like 4 set pieces total left to obtain.

    There are plenty for sale starting at 40k a few at 150k - always best to check traders first

    Do the PvE quests in the three towns plus chorrol and cheydinhal. The ones in cropsford, Bruma and Cheydinhal are quite fast - albeit boring if done too often -, but you do get Cyrodill gear plus a citrus for 50% faster leveling to GO plus jewelry in guaranteed purple quality plus a boon box during the cyrodiil event.

    That is 50 Cyrodill items in a 2-3 hour run. Include the new ones in your sticker book, put the ones you already have in the guild trader for reasonably good money and decon the purple jewelry for zirconium grains. Pretty lucrative, doesn't cost any AP and will make you good gold. But admittedly it gets boring rather quickly.

    Well it can be worse , its called imperial city . Wanted to complete my IC stickerbook . After spending over 3,5 million telvar im still missing a shield breaker dagger. After 2,5 million I was already only missing that piece. So i bought 400 purple shield breaker specific boxes . And guess what stil no dagger . Completely broken system . Its cant even be called rng .
    And checking every trader manually , cause im on ps5. And cant find 1 for sale . Would happily pay a million for it at this point .

    If you can't find them on TTC, you can also generally pay a random PvPer gold and they'll buy you boxes.

    Yea I know it's annoying, but you can at least solve it by throwing gold at it.

    ah, you needed telvar.....my bad, I just saw that part of the convo, either way I will check my bank for you to see if I have a dagger collecting dust. I barely play anymore and have loads of telvar as well...so I will buy a couple boxes and see as well
