Death of Sortie? Gone To Soon (A Brief Rant)
That is the most frustrating thing about sortie imo. I've only gotten like 3 earrings in the last like 6 months, and they've all been dupes.

At this point I’d be happy with a 3 or even 5:1 exchange rate of +2 earrings, even just getting the consumable earring of your choice and (most likley) getting a min roll anyway. I have dupes of a few jobs and it’s mega frustrating.

When I was playing with Pergatory every time he would say all he wanted was a SMN +2 I would get a SMN +2.

The real secret to all items drops that load into personal pool (UNM, Sortie, I think there's a couple other systems) is to help someone and you'll get what they want.

Nah, I was helping my returner friend do sortie for his EMP+2/3 he got a COR+2(which I need and can use) and a DRG+2(he does play it and I do). I got 0 +2 earrings from those boxes.

Both of these are wrong, the real real secret is just not want the item, want something entirely unrelated like an earring for a job you dont ever use and you'll get the one you want instead.

You have to trick the algorithm into thinking you're a complete gimp, then the game feels sorry for you and rewards you with a consolation prize.

last group I ran sortie with getting a perfect +2 on a commonly used or favorite job meant either quitting or getting banned, the attrition rate was literally 100% for a while
