RED update thoughts and feedback

Where do all the Sweetwater gear drop? I heard it's only from the bosses? If so, can you fight them constantly and are there "easy modes" of the sea bosses?

They only drop from the bosses yeah. Grosso Polpo (the kraken) boss is very easy, it does nothing special and isn't very strong. people with 40k-50k range have been able to kill it fairly well. on the Rosa Trade Route (unlocked after about 2 or 3 days of doing trades) you can kill Grosso Polpo 6 times a day. the limit is only character bound though, so you can do it on more than one character. On my Kanna and Zero I have 12 attempts per day.

For me, it wasn't until about 100 runs in that I finally got a sweetwater item, though I got 2 that day and another one today. I've heard of people getting one the first few tries though, so it's all luck.

There aren't easy modes, but Grosso Polpo is easy enough. the sea dragon boss is a lot harder though, but farming Rosa is enough to get some loot, and you'll never run into the sea dragon there.
