So I'm wondering, has anyone gotten some Goetia feet to drop from attowha after update? I went tonight 11 hours straight in chasm and 10 hours 3 days ago and I've seen every single feet drop multiple times EXCEPT blm <_< you think it's broke or are they really just that rare?

We farmed for about 6 hours straight walking in with a far less than ideal setup of 7 people. Got 2 BLM, 2 MNK, 1 WHM, and 1 WAR. It's really just shitty random chance.

During my first post-update Abyssea PT, we literally had more than 10 pairs of BLM feet drop for the alliance. No one needed them by the time I left.

As was said before, ***'s random. At least more feet are dropping now.

A couple of friends came with my fiance and I to farm my THF feet last night. We got a WAR and an RDM in the first gold chest that dropped. By the end of the night the total was 1 WAR, 1 RDM, 2 BLM, 2 MNK, and 0 THF. Needless to say, I was rather displeased. Just keep trying? That's what I'm doing! lol If nothing else you'll end up with feet for jobs you might level in the future!

SE programmed the drop rates so that they always favor the jobs YOU don't want. My experience is proof of this >.>

Amusingly, the alliance leader in that party I mentioned was after THF feet.

Pre-update, capping lights increased amber chest frequency but also increased the number of items that could pop in chests. Basically, it was a wash. Now it's been adjusted, so who knows. I'd go ahead and cap though.

Lol we had the same thing pretty much. We had Azure + Pearl capped and was farming trees for time. No amber at all besides the 2 abyssites I have and we got 2 blm feet while farming for time. One of them was from a large gold chest which was very odd.
