Throughout the course of my MMO play, I’ve found that some loot I’ve craved is simply never meant to be. Sometimes it’s an expensive cash-shop item I just can’t bring myself to pay through the nose to acquire. Sometimes it’s a random drop that’s eluded me no matter how long I’ve farmed for it. Right now, I have a few items on my bucket list, including a specific Guild Wars 2 outfit that doesn’t return to the cash-shop often and a set of paintings, a vehicle, and a house that still haven’t been added to Star Wars Galaxies Legends. I suppose both of those are beyond my control. But other items, I’ve simply had to give up on because I hated the farming or the RNG more than I wanted the item. It’s just math, see.
So for today’s Daily Grind, tell me your sad story: Tell me about the loot that got away, the MMO thing you wanted but never got your hands on! Has there ever been MMO loot you desperately wanted but never got?
