TL;DR MAIN PAWN MATTERS EVEN IF IT ISN'T SUMMONED

Ok, so, I've been playing the entire game solo as Magick Knight. I've been farming the living shit out of Bitterblack Isle, Daimon, Post-Daimon, Lv.2 weapons for the magic sword, and a whole heap else, but kept getting Blue only items, with very rarely getting an upgrade. I've re-read this article countless times, and assumed it was wrong, or that I had to change vocations outside of BBI, or that I had to close/open the client, outside of BBI after a week in granys to get it to recognize my class, or some bullshit like that.

Yes, I'm stupid. I had no idea your pawn is screwing over your loot from the other side of the rift. It boggles the mind to think ALL of Magick Knight's loot is red, despite being logged as red/blue and getting 50% trash unless you switch before purifying, so I had it in my head this game was a janky piece of wonderful shit and I was just switching vocations wrong.

I've spent the entire game without pawns, as I hate the whole system. It doesn't change too much, especially when you can do some ridiuclous damage with the right setup. It's not like you need a brain dead army dying all the time. I completely forgot I even had a pawn. So much time wasted.

This is a warning to anyone as fritata as me: MAKE SURE YOU AND YOUR STUPID PAWN HIDING IN THE RIFT IS THE CLASS OF THE COLOUR YOU WANT YOUR LOOT TO BE BEFORE YOU PURIFY!
