Over 2 months of farming T2 with DD

Not a SINGLE drop of T2 set piece that I could use. My luck can't be that bad.
In all seriousness, loot table needs to be fixed. There's no point in doing hours of spider runs and get a ring in the end that I can't sell on AH or even cover the potion and kit costs. Also ridiculous that T1 gears are dropping from T2 chests.
Not to mention that the drop % on the high valued items are so low that the DD event has rendered all non-DD runs pointless.
Please Cryptic, do something about this. It's pretty depressing that there is nothing left for me to do in game other than waiting for DD.

A viable end level token system would be a huge plus. Even if my luck sucks, at least id know id earn my gear over enough runs. Why Cryptic implemented tokens for level 1-59 gear but cut it off on top teir stuff simply boggles me.
A token system isn't necessary as long as the gear is tradeable, but that's another barrel of fish entirely.
The problem is, Cryptic seems to want to reduce gear trading. Most of the complaints on the loot system is there is simply to much gear floating around. Its to easy to buy, ect, ect. The problem is, it seems to mostly be the wrong gear. T1 is all but vendor junk right now. T2 is harder to come by.
While, ill admit, a token system isnt perfect. It is something that is already mostly in place. And would serve to both reduce randomness and an over influx of lower tier gear flooding the markets.
There should be some variety but it should never be that one player gets a real treasure and another just a slap in the face.
You could farm mad dragon for stalwart helm. Then, hope that the gf has it already and rolls greed instead of need. Then you can sell it and get a piece you need. Sad it's come to that though. Usually it's a blue that drops. During DD, two tank runs and one of them almost always gets a helm. I got a purple HAMSTER belt from the boss, then the exact same belt, only blue, from the chest.
Imagine you can 100% guarantee T2 Drops from ANY T2 dungeon ( for example you will always drop your CW T2 Bracers from Karrandux) , this will make the T2 items so cheap on AH and easily obtained.
The T2 items are the strongest gears in the game, so they have to have lower % drop rate than the T1 items. This will give them more value and will keep the AH economy stable.
I don't want to get a rare swashbuckling captain's armor every time i do a spider run and sell them for 100k on AH, because thats how much they would worth if every T2 dungeon 100% drops T2.
The dungeons are somehow easy and not challenging when you reach 11k++ GS , so please don't ask them to take the motive to do them away as well.
EDIT - for clarification I'm talking about something like this:
sub-bosses have a high chance of dropping a blue item, lower chance of a non-tier purple, very low chance of dropping a tier item (about how it is now with the overall chance of a purple bumped up slightly)
End bosses drop a tier item guaranteed (from any set for any class or any jewelry, as long as it's slot-appropriate for that dungeon), with a chance at a second item that follows the same drop rules as the earlier bosses (So most of the time it would be a tier and a blue, with a very rare chance at 2 tier items).
DD chest should contain slot- and tier-appropriate tier items (again, between 3 different sets and varying jewelry you still only have around a 10% or so chance at the specific item you're after).
If they keep the best items rare enough, then i agree with your idea.
The economy is borked has been for a long time and it will not get any better, the ad exploit messed it up permanently and too many mules didn't get caught and banned, so I say fix it and the HAMSTER dungeons as well.
Alternately people can do like me and just stop playing.

Could you explain how the economy is broken? because i don't have any issues buying my things from AH for reasonable prices.
Farm T2 outside the DD event and you'll get better set drops .
So you're mad on the internets I see how it is now .
Same thing happened over in STO (star trek online). Some people got real lucky on their first runs of the end game content, while others had been running the same content multiple times and never got one single drop.
Now we got this system called "Reputation", where we run the end game content, get some reputation marks and use those (along with some other costs) to run projects for the gear we could pick from the list.
I never said there should be a 100% chance of dropping a T2 gear. However, the loot tables need to be adjusted accordingly so that there is a reason to run T2 dungeons without the DD event. Also, there is absolutely no reason for T1 items dropping from T2 chests. I steamroll through every T2 dungeon but not everyone can. No question that those people would at least want a significant incentive for spending 2+ hours on a dungeon. Besides, modifying the loot drops would little, if any, effect on the pricing. There are A LOT of people who still aren't able to complete these dungeons. People will still pay a lump some amount of money for them.
TL;DR
I agree. Donnie Darko was not really all that great. I mean, it was okay and had a few good songs...
Hahahaha....no.
It would be worth much less.
You must be forgetting Drake and Unicorn seals.
