Lineage gem drop rates...

The fact that the 2 most popular lineage gems are nearly 150 divs says either i should have thousands of divs @ this point in the season( so NOT the average players case) or the drop rates are so low as to be absurd. I have run so many deadly map bosses to get these 2 gems often repeating the same map to finally unlock the boss to get zip, feels bAd. Done with it...

I agree with this post so much i feel like I'm being messes with. I have ran an absurd amount of eye of the storms and sacred Reservoir and keep getting the same 4 crap support gems every run as some one that has 3k+ hours played. i think this is really hurting your player base. have have run 50 to 60 run of each map with not one dropping. now the price to buy one is over 200 divs. i even switch over to running mansions in the mist and that map drop 2 of the valuable support gems then stopped dropping them 20 runs later and can get another one to drop. i do not get messing with target farming. you did not mess with the guy that bought up all the bows in season 3 and and then jacked up the price so much that it made it impossible for and average player to by one. why would you punish those that try and farm these gems as the price for them would got down and be more reasonable. i do like that stuff is more rare this season. but this feels very deliberate making it so I'm not able to get rtakiata's flow, Garkukhan's resolve, and Rigwalds Ferocity to drop at all any more not matter what i do i run max out t16 maps with fully maxed out boss atlas point. with high rarity/ boss rarity and cant get it to drop i have tried everything even killing every monster in the the map before going into the bosses and nothing. very frustrating to completely ruin one of my favorite parts of the game.
It's possible to use the temple to farm the world-drop lineage supports.

Uruk's Smelting drops from one of the Tier 3 forge bosses. The lineage gem vaults drop both temple-only gems and world-drop gems, so I killed the level 81 Architect several times to be able to place more lineage gem vaults.

Yup, drop rates are abysmal. In general, this game relies on pure RNG with no way to mitigate it way too much and for way too many things. It's so lazy. They really should think about some kind of "pity" or accumulation system that builds up over time to prevent players from just rage quitting after not getting what they are looking for after 20 hours of doing the same thing over and over. It's just stupid to rely entirely on RNG. You're basically just wasting our time.

i have done so many maps with max rarity/effectiveness and hasnt dropped anything valuable. just buy the lineage support u want for D and move on bro.
So you people are telling me to login every day of my life to gamble the hours I put in this game to either drop something valuable or waste all of that. How this gambling game is even allowed in Europe ? I mean I know they block gambling boxes etc in games.

While this POE is life gambling just in a different way.

The fact that some Lineage gems worth less than few exalted makes me want abandon game. Every Lineage should kick asses but right now only 8-10 worth fighting for them.

And they said Lineage support will be awesome and drop rare to find. Excellent idea but failed in execution.....
I am not a fan of seasonal items being behind a huge RNG or paywall especially within an early access... Let us test without having to no life or be extremely lucky.
Are we talking about Rakiatas?

I've found 2 in ssf.

I'm actually looking for a Brutus' Brain and haven't found one... lol

RNG is gonna RNG. That's just the game.
