This is a decent thread, thank you very much for doing this, have been bleating on last week on guild chat about how hideous the drop rate is, and the number of days it would take to level up one toon on purple gear, thanks for sharing all of this. Seems another way to encourage crystal purchase but the drop rate is quite poor so is it really worth the repeat gamble? Another way to control the gameplay, if they up'd the drop rate we'd still be all viing for the same spot, so is it best as is, is it totally unfair? Personally I think they should have a double drop day like they've had with the gw, just every now and then, so we can finish some hard to get gear quicker, a bit of hope.
