I don’t usually post things in here as I dedicate myself to the game to even actively participate in the forums. However, I’ve been getting irritated by this Guardian raid orb loot system or checkbox to claim reward before the raid start and I had to write something.
My concern is that the system, as most of you are aware, makes it likely to claim a loot you don’t want by checking a box which happens to me when helping some of my friends or randoms on lower tiers of guardian raids than my current item level and I end up getting a lower tier 1-3 orb that I cannot ignore because it was “meant” to appear as your checked the box.
Then there’s the other problem that you DO want the rewards, you finish the raid and after what feels like 10 mins of cutscene, then a full screen MVP window appears right after and blocks your view and blanks your mind and you auto-pilot your cursor towards the leave button and suddenly you realize you didn’t claim the orb, thus wasted your daily loot count and your time.
The loot system should be redone so it doesn’t punish you if you leave the loot after successfully defeating a guardian or let you exit without even claiming it and not consume your daily count. There must be plenty of topics regarding this, but not sure if they ever get an official response that could suggest they’ll be working on it to make it part of a quality of life feature in future updates.
Ok, so the problem persist and I just need to get good at the game. Or if I crash from the game and the group finished the content I get no loot, then I must get a better computer or internet.
I understand that I must pay attention, but because my mind wasn’t there by a slight second, and then doing a content that is repetitive I just be like:
enter raid, defeat guardian, claim orb, leave, enter raid, defeat guardian, claim loot, leave, enter raid, defeat guardian, claim orb, leave, enter raid, defeat guardian, claim loot, leave, enter raid, defeat guardian, claim orb, leave, enter raid, defeat guardian, claim loot, leave…
and so on for like 10-13 characters depending how I’m doing dailies and if I have rest bonuses.
At some point I might just miss it because repetitiveness makes me assume I must have claimed it, and then leave.
