Hi,
So, Ive been farming dungeons for the past few weeks. Whenever we down the boss, I get excited to open the chest only to find out that there are a few blues and maybe a green in there. Most of which are armor types and weapon types that I cannot use.

I have a few issues here:
1. I thought that the gear that was to drop for you in dungeons were to be specific to your characters armor type and weapon choices. Please, correct me if I am wrong.
2. Why do I only receive blue and some green gear? What about the rares and/or exotics? I am running explorable after all, why am I receiving vendor trash gear. I cant even sell the greens on the TP because people post 50 items of it, for 1 copper more.
3. Do I NEED to run these dungeons with tons of magic find gear in order to get some rares/exotics? If so, I understand magic find to increase the chance of finding non-junk items, not increasing the quality of said items. Also, if dungeons were structured this way, where I need to stack MF, I am kittening my group. More often, I pug a dungeon run, and honestly with some people out there, its in the group’s best interest to have your best gear on, not magic find stacked gear.

MODS, if this needs to be moved to another forum, please do so. I posted here because I have an opinion about the poor drop rate of good items in dungeons, along with a few questions

1. I’m not sure about this one, as i understand the rewards are just scaled to your level.
2. I’ve received a couple of yellows so far and i haven’t been farming or using MF at all so i guess you’re just unlucky

I sometimes use MF food if i have it on-hand, but other than that i just rely on luck. The less worry the better

I agree..the less worry. Let me rephrase, I get Rare(yellow) Runes…sometimes an exotic rune. Cool! But what about gear! I dont think these runes are going for much on the TP anyways, and now I have a ton of these runs.

Gear man! Weapons! Things I could use, salvage, sell, or fine..vendor. Just make me feel like my trip into the dungeon is worth it.

Chests are dissapointing : / What’s the point killing a <meant to be epic boss> and getting a chest with a few blues/greens/sometimes a rare when you can be full exotics in a few days.

Tokens ? Play for a week, maybe two and tokens become obsolete.

Getting more rares would save the gw2 economy.

And some more silvers in the end of dungeon.

Maybe a silly question, but you are above L60 right? Not a L30 alt farming the L30 dungeon instance?

The the range level for Rare Yellow is 35-80
The the range level for Exotic Orange is 60-80

Just making sure

As for loot for your class, its always is and always will be random, (not for your class, just random)
Dungeon is about getting the token and buying the sets, not for the drops in the instance, they are just to sell to cover rare costs.

In general, doing instances for anything other then the tokens, is a waste a of time. Crafting to 400 and making your own top level set is much easier and more rewarding

The dungeon rewards in general are underwelling and have no really prestige value like they should has the hardest thing in the game
