Hi team after multiple chats and a wholeeeee heap of party play solid days of 8-10 hours I can whole heartedly say resonance drops are pretty bad, lol.
Golden - as I mentioned in dev chat last 2 days I’ve recieved 11 for my mate and he’s recieved 17 for me.
Obsidian - as mentioned in dev chat he’s recieved 3 I have none.
- we have played together for weeks and weeks, this is just a recent example.
Now Mike the other day you mentioned obsidian isnt dropping as intended (you think) but today you said its a chance drop. I’m all for chance drops of items for your character but in this specific instance I do not believe there is any way resonance should be “chance” he has 3 I have none? Thats very silly. If you’re spending days and hours playing (often suffering on 300 ping due to countries vs monsters with almost twice the hp) for no bonus other than playing with a mate then the drops should be equal, it’s not a quad 7 exalted item its a reward for spending time with your friend so you or he can trade you an item that may be better for your build.
I beg you from the very essence of my core as I know there are tons of other people who play together, please examine obsidian and make it a set drop not a chance drop it’s already incredibly hard to come by but it should not be punishing to this point. I feel like you’re more likely going to his that red ring 1 in 300 billion faster than obsidian sometimes.
The sheer amount of hours and days we play together is huge, we’re both on 10 hours a day so it’s not some sparadic hour here hour there business.
Quote from Mike in Dev chat - “Progress is simultaneously and equally granted to all nearby party members. Drops are not reliable and you are not expected to have them drop simultaneously. (By reliable I mean that they have a chance based element for when to drop)”
Please get it to where it’s more like “its all equal and you shall recieve obsidian at the same time after tons and tons of hours of killing stuff” least then it’ll really actually be equal 
Would you consider being able to trade 5 golden for an obsidian or use 5 golden on an exalted/LP item?
PLEASE
DEAR
GOD
PLEASE.
Please.
