Item drop probabilities on raids may need adjustment.

    Seems only fair that they double the drop rate for you all for the next couple months....

    Our only two only appeared in advanced loot which we typically never use, but the only two times we had inadvertently left it on from grouping (we typically do talendor first on our 2nd raid night), we got it both times. We've never seen it outside of advanced loot. In both cases, it didn't poof instantly or disappear or anything like that, but I did deal with that then turn off loot before doing the regular chest. I think we just got lucky.

    05/15/18 07:56:38 PM Talendor has been slain by Raptour!
    05/15/18 07:57:04 PM --You have looted a Trophy of Talendor.--

    07/03/18 05:57:30 PM Talendor has been slain by Drowtoy!
    07/03/18 05:58:45 PM --Bidaum has looted a Trophy of Talendor.--

    Will it stay at 15% rate or be increased some to compensate for the lack of drops so far?

    I certainly wouldn't complain about that but I'll point out the Mount is pretty desired for the movement speed. People will be clearing VP next year anyway, the way we all did for quite some time in TBM farming Right and Left Eyes of Sul.

    We got the trophy tonight, but it dropped on his corpse instead of the hero's satchel. We had assumed that's why there were two pieces of hero's forge dropping -- one piece of hero's forge and then a chance for the second item to be either hero's forge or the trophy. Just checking in to see if this layout and how it happened tonight is how it is intended by the team!

    We got the trophy this week and last week in the Satchel. Thanks Ngreth!
    Still sitting at just one Soulbow drop.. two months out from the next expansion!

  11. Yinla Ye Ol' Dragon

    Oh let me tell you man we are SWIMMING in Fanglory's. Think we have had at least 4.

    Here's my well timed and illustrious contribution: Make raid coins tradeable on ALL servers. Make all loot table raid items available on raid vendors. Viola! Problem Solved!

    My gawd I'm good. ;)

    Idea: what if old expansions had their coin rate doubled? This could be a great way to allow folks to get access to the rare gear once newer content has been released.
  16. CrazyLarth Augur

    they are not going to go edit 100+ raids just to double the raid coin. = lol
    they might put the old raid coin on the loyalty vender.
  17. Aurmoon Augur

    Why not? In the grand scheme of things, this would appear to be one of the easier means of addressing players’ requests to make old gear more accessible. I’m happy accept them saying that they don’t want to do it or that the coding is far more challenging than it appears on the surface. However, if it truly is just editing a variable on old raids, then that doesn’t seem so bad to me.

    Why? My mind is suddenly thinking of ramifications for 3 magical letters T L P.
  19. Deillusional Augur

    We got the trophy last sunday too, was in satchel though.
  20. Bigstomp Augur

    Interesting, I believe we had a trophy on the corpse this week as well. I didn't think anything of it at the time.
