Is drop issue addressed in next update?

[Comp]

Before you flame me for putting this here....it affects us all and people look here first so :metal:

Will the issues with drops be address'd this coming update? I killed 100 lvl 51 mobs and not a single drop....not even arrows. When I did finally get a drop from a lvl 51 mob it was a lvl 25 item.....and this was after killing about 150-200 mobs. That's just crazy!!

[Mattdoesrock]

I damn well hope so.

The drop situation is plain annoying at the moment T_T

[Mage_pegusas]

Yea I've been getting lvl 20-35 items from aquantis knights.. :/

Here, Envy and I beat kront (tol tar legend/boss).. we did it with only 2 of us, took us 15 mins and this is what i got..
11576
They are lvl 33 or so.. lol

[-Edge-]

All I get is defective arrows and I get assloads of worn knight armour like plate and heavy gladiator.

I bet the drop rate will get decreased even more, and a premium item for drop rate increasing will be added.

[Anpu]

they are working on random thingy which is connected with evade and all % things, including drops. For example, Vesper can drop arrows, worn bow (max 37) and barb hammer 50. Its luck and as far as i know, they are working on fixing this so far "problematic" luck.
maybe gamemod would like to add something?

[-Edge-]

Well like you said Anpu, its definatly not random, I see people with very similar drops to me, or found similar ones. For instance I think at the moment the code for attack speed % drops is found only in legs. I have legs with +4% attack speed, other people have the same thing.

[theotherhiveking]

Now seriously, im been playing for a lot of time and i NEVER got a decent barbarian armor, almost all were normal, or several level below me (lv 25 or so)

[Dee-luxX]

Cylops (41) and lions (think 42 43) dropped two bows lvl 25.

At least they say the drop things will be fixed with the dragons.

[Pornstar]

Vesper's drop. :lol:
11596

[Anpu]

omg xD
well, in changelog, it says they fixed boss drops, so we ll give another chance, bm :)

[Blaine]

Is it only me who realizes that mages have much higher drop rate than other classes?
With a hunter or barb i get almost no drops (0-1, max 2 items per repair), but with warlock I usually sell 5-6 items (some of them are good and I don't sell them - xymrald bows, +>100 mana items etc) when I go to repair my equipment and sell loot.

[Malik2]

On occasion I have gotten barb and knight armor with boneses. Few and far between though. I probably get one drop per every 400 or 500 mobs.

[Mage_pegusas]

60% of the drops I get are Knight. 15% mage. 15% archer. 10% barb. (not including arrows, Warrior weapon = knight). Around 40% total have bonuses. :/
And sometimes I can kill 600mobs and get 0 drops, sometimes 100 mobs and get 3 :sifflote:
Rarely get lvl 50 drops, usually below 44

[sathilda]

That simply gets me mad... you kill an aqua knight you got lvl 3x arrows... i've plenty of screen of crappy stuff dropped if you want.


60% of the drops I get are Knight.

If it's lvl 46+ armor +constitution with a good(or better) resist to pierce, i buy :angel2: (hehe i have nothing to exchange with you you're already uberstuffed -.-")

[Valorius]

I have 8.3m xp, and i have never once looted a single lvl 50 item, of any kind.

[Mage_pegusas]

Eww. I looted my 1st at lvl 48, and it was a knight shield with +cons lol.
Haven't got too many after that, hense my lower lvl items (42-48, but they all have bonuses of +4 x or +100+ mana :)).
I have 6.8xm xp, but i'm sure soon i'l loot a +7dex bow for envy :)

[Static_Fang]

I (Lvl 44 Dark elf warlock) have looted a lvl 50 royal staff of lightning!
From Aqua fishies xD Attack speed +3%, medium speed, 53-?? damage (cant remember)

[Mage_pegusas]

I traded a +5 int hat for a staff with +24 slash dmg, medium speed, 30 range. Pwnage lvl 46 staff mastery staff.
I would sure <3 to loot more stuff that I could use :)

[ncvr]

I got a +4 int conju hat lvl 50 when I was fighting Elite Cyclops Warriors for some reason. Damn, why did it have to be for conjus? :(

[Mage_pegusas]

Lol
I have two hats, one +5 int, other +160 mana. The best place for looting for Ignis is meleketi beach on Aquantis Captain. They rarely drop but sometimes they drop good items. :)

[Anpu]

got last night at central save warlock gloves 46, with 5 conc, while getting rid 10% of necro. who would say that i dont need to go far for drop? :D

[Elman1o1]

where is a good place for a Alisius char to hunt for Worlock gear?

all of my drops have been for archers and knights..

ie, what type of mob should I kill to get warlock gear? // lv 41 warlock is doing the killing.

thank you.

I found lots of stuff for mages on the aquantis between pp1 and pb1. But it's in my beloved Syrtis.

Not trying to offend you, but the beaches in Syrtis are rarely well protected and many of our people grind there in peace.

[Linerex]

I have no problem with the new drop system i get perfect drops, but not for my class :biggrin: the last few days i got but about 4 special items but they where all for archers

[save_the_trees]

got a lv 50 Lord Necro tunic +4 const for Lord Necro yesterday after grinding for about 50k xp in a group. (but in fact I named my warlock after Necrostacy and not Necromancy; he was a drowning experiment :biggrin: ) Sabertooths at orc camp seem to drop quite well currently.

[Bully]

Am I the only one who doesn't get any equipment, weapons, or arrow drops at all? At least nothing in the last 16 levels.

[makarios68]

I got a staff and a bow both described as 'special'.

Trouble is, they are both defective and the bow gives -dmg and -hit chance.

They give a + also (staff +3%attack speed, bow +4 concentration) - but i wouldn't describe them as 'special'.

IMO if an item is described as 'special' it should be rare and have a WOW factor...

[Jedi-x]

Agreed Wudster, I recieved a staff for lvl 41 the other day, labeled special, and well ...... it is special actually, so I guess me 'Lock will be using that soon :)

But yes Bully, the drop system has been fixed with last 'hotfix', so drops are once again happening.

[GIGO305]

this is messd up! give us at least 1 drop an hour or 1 every 100 mobs

[impp]

I find it get better drops when I an leveling with an xp booster, strange that or maybe just coincidence???

Impp

[Bully]

Level 30 now. Have recieved a total of 3 drops since level 10. All 3 were useless to say the least. Not happy.

[Akooo]

Even so it's a game, grinding is no fun at all. Some more and better drops could improve this. Only good thing about grinding atm is, that you know, when you can stop :p

[Bully]

Making drops more rare is not such a bad thing if done right. I wouldn't if I only got a drop once in a blue moon if the item that was dropped was a REALLY awesome item. But all I get is items 10 levels below me with negative attributes.

[misaccc]

i have no problems with the drops...yes they are rare but i get quite a few and most of them are higher or my lvl...:o

[e30G]

It would be better to have more frequent drops of rather worthless items with the occassional rare but really good drop. This way, players will feel something is actually happening and they will continue to look forward to the next drop.

[makarios68]

Personally, i believe that drops should be rare.

That's what makes them appealing.

But when you get a drop i think it should be related to the lvl of the mob - so that any drops you get should be approximately your lvl if you kill similar lvl mobs to yrself.

As things are you can get drops 20 lvls below you from a challenging mob, and a i hear a lot of people (rightly) complaining about this.

So imo drops should be rare, but when you get them they ought to be of a similar lvl to yrself.

Mostly these should be of average or ok quality, stuff you can use rather than buy.

But the really good stuff with bonuses should remain rare, to ensure that these items remain valuable.

I would hate to see such items become too common, as it would devalue them...

[e30G]

Yes I think good drops should be rare, but I think more common items or lower quality items should drop more often that it does now.

[Silver_Hawk4]

I used to want drops(Drops should= +Stat Items) for my lvl and hear the complaints about drop rates. But now my eyes have been opened. What I'd like to see is:

1)You get drops only if mob cons Challenging or higher to you. (if that's possibly to implement) ie. 1 lvl 40 + 1 lvl 38 grinding together have to kill atleast a lvl 42 mob to even have a chance to get a drop.

2) Drops will be up to 5 lvls less than mob killed. IE kill lvl 47 orc and get a drop it will be lvl 42-47 no less.

It would balance out. Drops are from higher lvls so it'ds more chance of it being usable by grinders...:D
Drops and +stat Items SHOULD be rare, but it seems like half of everyone's Equip have +Stats...

/START OPINION would rather NGD remove +stats on ALL Items(except quest items) in the game, revamp system and let us re earn them //End OPINION
but that would cause SOOOO many issues both with users B*****in' and I'm sure it's alot of work. I'd like to get back to Game Skill and not +Stat kills... I might make a new post in Suggestions if ppl agree...

I would like that, but I doubt I have as much +stat gear on my chars as others do.
