The real problem is you want a wishlist. Not drops.
Aptitude chests did get better. Proof is in your post. You got a drop that is worth a lot in the market. Why not sell the good drop so you can purchase a recipe you don’t have?
But that is not what you want. Your expectations do not meet what the reality is. If you want guaranteed drops. Go find a p2w game.
So, what you are saying is, I need to explain it to you like a child? Hmmm, it seems like the word “kid” was properly used. Or as we say “back in my day” … “If the shoe fits!”
Yeah because this is the only thing that makes sense here. You can complain all day but in the end no one knows what you really wanted to get. Maybe you just dont know what is out there? Do me a favor and put the gold fish in porcelain on the list.
