Drops system....

Is generated random/pe area/per mobs/per numbers of mobs killed ? ...because used boosters and ofc number of mobs killed are less.
Or better i am patient to lvl 60 and use WM items?
At merchants can't find gears/items for lvl 50+ for sales..only arows.
Also grindet from 50 to 53 at shana beach and there droped lots of cool items,that why asking if is by area ,54-54 now to 55 near alsius orc camp.

That's it my only personal feeling and supported only by 2 magic drop (the only 2's i ever got).. so don't blame me if you think different..

LEADER drop better than other...
so with my useless lock (before they change and stop the Lock "Dot" mode)
i grinded killing only leaders as soon i get enough dot-damage-powers to do
it..
it take me AGES to reach lvl 27 (when i stop cause of boring to death) and
i receive a real high number of special item drop (high respect to my poor
knight that reach lvl50 having only almost useless items )
i pratically kill all the blue leader i see.. and some of them gave great drop
(one was a real fantastic magic barbs 2h lvl14 sword, when i was lvl 13 ) that i sold for a 50 magna or similar.. also i try killing lvl 50 mob and it work
they drop much more to my sucky lvl 27 lock than my stupid poor lvl50 knight who killed them so easy...(note: same mob species.. but killing with a low level char raise percentage??) ..with whom i stop grinding at all..


so my personal ideas are:
1) Drop are much more frequent at low level and in your path to lvl 60 the
percentage of a drop reduce till a very very small minimal chance at the ending lvl..

2) Drop of better quality stay on leader (also better quality and high percentage of special/magic/(epic?)

3) you need to have a real badass luck to gain a epic from a drop..


but now the Leader alone are almost undoable (only very good lock can do them now... i try with my lvl50-Knight setted in FULL DEFENSE suit and wasnt able to kill a hyena leader... ) they hit me with 20-30 dmg each hit
i deal 30-40 dmg... they have much more health than me

and hyena is gray to me..


just my 2cents..

Oh lol i don't complaint about something ....yes agree at low lvl-s drop rate is highter.
I realy don't care about magical/epic drops...in old days drop system was worst....1,5 milions xp and not a drop.(neighter good or bad)
Just i was tryng to see haw this works...in old days had a theory by kind of mobs...now not work anymore....and now i have by area...or maybe kind of mobs too...i am not sure by something...or maybe is just luck and was at bad place in bad moment...that make me to wonder is drops by class...even now i am lvl 56 ...not a drop for my class...and i can't find something to buy/trade due of low population of alsius...and even they drop they sell for repaires or keep for clan.
Maybe Tiger is right and and NGD made deliberate this think to buy boxes....i realy dont know what to think about...
And about leaders...2,5 years a go..leaders always drop a good item....now very rare drop something...this theory is down from my eyes

Yes offcourse its luck based....
But we all know pigs has an higher chance of being lucky as others

There isnt something special in droping, i mean that droping isnt controlled by any1 and its randomized. The main reason of this is to make grind more fun as you worrie if you will drop something good and that helped me grind easier

[Archefiend]

Ooh I get a lot of drops but-
1, They all are crap no one wants them so= sale at merch
2.Need to simply destroy all loot, otherwise you will be drowned by overburdens....wepons and armor are lighter + price higher (except shields, heavy as rock...)

I guess you are, I have dropped zero epic's in my 3 years on horus.
And 1 great gem.

Also I have dropped 5 times at tenax, which 3 of the drops were conjurer gloves.

Ehm, tons of epics, magicals and great gems here....
I've had atleast 10 epics after the update with new max lvl, and 3 great gems and alot of magical stuff.
