    I think you would need to take into account for those who have been punished by RNG vs those who have been rewarded. I think it would be nice for those who wanted options, to actually have them.

    Adding it to the DZ and LZ might be better. They are at least comparable in scope to The Summit. Instances seem to have been designed around a faster more compacted experiance.

    I see target loot as a joke , target loot always drops low score items , the more they drop the lower they seem to be ?. The devs know what you are looking for and will drop lower scores , all my gear has come from farming open world , the RNG gods may hate me , but i blame the devs , anyway to slow down gameplay , anyway to keep you searching .

    My first 100 floors of summit solo and i got some great bits at the top 10 , but NO good target loot , all target loot was scrapped ?.. My second run solo and i picked kneepads , and never got a good roll never mind a god roll ? . but i did get what i wanted first run and not targeted ?.

    I started a 3rd run but got bored with the junk at floor 30 ... killed summit for me ..

    Well that may be the most efficient but I don't see it from your point of view. I am in a clan of almost 150 people spread across 3 in game clans because of the idiotic 50 clan member limit. We always have people doing many different things, new people to veterans, so matchmaking is not really a thing for us people just ask in discord. It would be nice to be able to jump in and help whoever is asking but still be able to target the loot we might be looking for for ourselves.

    The door has already been opened. We can just always go to The Summit and accomplish this but then that of course gives little to no reason to do anything else in the game when looking for targeted gear for builds.

    Perhaps you don't. The point is that a large proportion of the player base thinks exactly that. A similar approach was adopted in Div 1 where Lexington was by far the most farmed mission.

    I get what your saying. As it stands if you want to farm specific gear the mechanism is already in place now with The Summit. If they weren't going to consider adding it everywhere for everything they probably never should have added it to The Summit in the first place.

    I cannot agree more !
    I already wrote it that the Summit targeted loot system is nice but Massive has to put it in the open world as well.

    They're going to add the optimization station just because they cannot fix the poor quality loot at heroic/legenday.
    What we need is to be able to do mission (other than the 3 strongholds) at Legendary difficulty, same with CPs etc. and be able to choose our own targeted loot as well.

    Right now it's really boring to do and redo the same mission in Summit !
    A place with no natural light, with smoke effects that prevent you to see the enemies while they do not have any problem to wipe your group (legenday sniper) etc.

    I've said after TU11.1 that Massive made a big mistake to only allow player to choose their targeted loot drop in Summit, after few weeks it'll be boring to only play in the Summit in order to have a chance to farm a specific weapon/set you need.
    Sadly everything they said in the last 2 SOTG make me thiunk that they're focusing on the Summit and they want us to play in the summit.
    They forgotthat we want to play the game to have fun and the way we want... not the way they think we should play.
