Wild Beast's Resentment drop rate is far too low.

Massively increase the drop rate of the Wild Beast's Resentment item or lower the required amount to three or less.

One of the Misty Island daily quests for Furniture is to collect 10 Wild Beast's Resentment from large field monsters. This is an absurd requirement as the drop rate for these items is horribly low.

It took me EIGHT (8) runs to finish this yesterday. Each run took about twenty to thirty minutes to get to a point where I could defeat those field monsters efficiently and I had several runs where none of these items dropped.
That's THREE (3) HOURS of effort for one piece of Home Furniture, even longer because the first run was a full 25 day run for other dailies.

It also seems to be the most common daily furniture quest. I've gotten it during 3 days out of the 5 days that challenge mode has been available.

    I've tried doing the quest by AFKing in a map and waiting for the monsters to respawn. It takes about 5 minutes of waiting in a map for monsters to respawn and you only get 3 or 4 per respawn cycle. It took about 2 hours to get 7 drops, so it's just as slow if not slower than restarting from the beginning and wiping out the entire island. Also, 4th day out of 6 that I got this daily. Seriously, this needs to be changed. It's so awful.

    You should be able to clear almost all the elite monster maps before the first raid on day 3. If it's taking you 30 minutes you're doing it wrong.

    That being said, I do still fully agree that the drop rate is too low and the requirement is way too high. Unfortunately, this is an event that's ending in less than a month and was made by kms, so Nexon is going to do absolutely nothing to change it.

    I posted this on Day 5 of Challenge Mode so it is faster now that I maxed out Survival Architect. My average clear time now is around 5 ingame days. That's still around 15 minutes per attempt, four or five attempts per day. An extra hour's worth of effort for a single piece of furniture.

    You're probably right but I can't imagine this would be harder than finding and changing a couple values. A massive studio like Nexon could probably do it with virtually no effort.

    I actually managed to get this thing on every single day where I didn't have the quest for it, but on the two days in a row with the quest, it didn't drop at all.

    You are vastly overestimating Nexon's competency lol.
