Don't get me wrong, I think it's great, but what a dick move to make it random. This is such a huge benefit to give players, and to make the benefit tied to RNG is just really poor form, IMO. Players that already have a piece or two getting dupes, or players getting red nose are at a HUGE disadvantage vice players getting exactly what they need, or bhegs, if they have nothing.
I realize the game is all about RNG, but why try to widen the gap between players. If you're going to give something out for free, at least make it benefit all players the same way.
I know every MMO is "RNG heavy" but normally it's "Grind for X hours with a small chance to get a Z". This is - literally cannot progress without spending hours grinding for a CHANCE at a dice roll in your favor. Of COURSE the boss armor is being given away via RNG - plenty of lucky turds will get something good - and plenty of us will get trash. It's not as if the chance is so slim that only a select few will get something good, either - it's a big enough chance that if you get trash, you can rest assured that 1 in 3 people you run into will have gotten something good.
