So naturally then your spells are resisted-->you dont benefit the group as much-->you dont get drop :/

This system is also why conjus are so good for bosses (mine dropped mace today!

) because they do not suffer from evade or resist chances. They are using auras, thus helping tons of people at once, thus taking credit for damage done. At bosses there are so many people, the auras do so much, that conjus get insane amount of damage, and they get the drop.

Just my thoughts, and if this was triggered by me posting about my Daen mace im sorry :/

tl;dr.
But anyway, I saw the Knight part.
I have gotten 3 drops from aura spamming. I do not care if I get hated for it =P

Never had a boss drop on my barbarian, have held aggro plenty of times. I've even been in a situation where I got the lion's share of the XP from Tenax, but all I got in in other terms was a metric shitload of various body parts and gems – I held onto these for the longest time in the hope that they had something to do with the planned crafting system that was dangled in front of our noses like the proverbial carrot for so long, but as I'm sure you all know, no dice there.
The last dozen or so times I've helped to kill an Epic mob (so epic... 30 seconds last time we killed Tenax, although empandas probably caused that) I've done it purely so that I was doing something with my realm mates.

I got exp on my marks one time at thorkul, and that's one time only (at lvl....uh.....36?)

I've yet to make it to any event for killing dragon/thorky since I made my conju (always late or have to leave few minutes before it starts >.>) so I've never dropped a boss drop in my life

though I DID drop an aysor amulet once, but does that really count? -.-

I've dropped leggings from tenax on my knight. I don't think I had aggro.
I tend to run under the red beast and hit belly area.

Thats the only drop I have ever gotten, and I PROMPTLY gave them away. Yes gave, no mags or gold or uber gear trading. I wasn't planning to use them and I would always rather see good gear get used rather than sit untouched.

Usually tho I'm in the same boat as Ara, metric assload of 'loot'.

Side note, why is a tenax fire ruby only worth 30gp at merchant? It was considerably more difficult to obtain than say a moon stone from a samal orc, but same value?

So many questions... We demand the TRUTH.

Sometimes it seems that dropluck depends on character not on class or player. Sometimes I think that using boosters decrease drop chance...

Once I grinded my knight... It has 100+ strength which is equal ~300kg of possble weight. Ok, 100kg is equipment.

I got 200kg of loot from sabbertooths and no drop... even nonspec...

Once at Alasthor I was only player who didn`t die... Eh... Sweet tree-tactic times... I got tons of gems, scales, gold, but no drop...

With my barb I don`t have such problems))

I might be able to confirm this. I never got drop, but I alwyas had bossters going because tenax often caught me in the middle of grind. I'm a support conju, so the timer doesnt run out during tenax cuz im not hitting him

and then the xp at the end is like 3000-5000

. But back to what I was saying. The one time in the past 2 months I didn't have a booster up, my conju dropped rha mace, then I got more xim and am using boosters again.....no drop
