Casual players, like me, bother about guaranteed loot only. For example currently my goal is - to obtain full Baleful 695 gear (I don't upgrade it - takes too long and requires dungeons/LFR, not worth it). It's guaranteed, that I will obtain one item once in 2-3 days (I don't do all Appexis objectives every day - dailies only, i.e 3 zones + rares). RNG loot isn't guaranteed for me, so I don't know, how much time can it take to obtain it, and therefore can't set any goal to achieve - I wouldn't do it. For example if there wouldn't be 20k Appexis Baleful gear upgrades and there will be RNG upgrades from rares only - I would stop doing Tanaan after 3 days, when I would get full Blue Baleful set. And I can say, that RNG loot is even worse for me, cuz I like to have full sets of gear and hate to look like a clown - having different pieces of gear with different item levels. For example I like to be "full 695" and don't want to be "some items are green, some blue, some epic and that one item is Mythic one". You should know, that I usually vendor items, that are upgrades, but don't fit into my set. So no. Unfortunately for Blizzard, I won't play their World Of Diablocraft.
