It's not just the brass rings though, I had a heck of a time getting stencils too and finally after 9 pair of pink shoes I got that outfit and decided to try for the jewelled stole and now can't get a loom for the life of me. I was going to try for the snake again too after giving up on it but luck would have it both the harem cloth and woven wood both need the looms and I only got 2 today

I am just curious Whitney, if they had the same issue in Beijing that they 'fixed' as far as the bad drop rates of materials, why would the issue come up again in the very next SA? If they already had to tweak it for Beijing, they should already know how to fix it so not only should it not be a problem to begin with, it should be fixed a lot sooner this time around. Why do they make the drop rate bad enough to upset all the players so much instead of just making it reasonable to begin with?
