Can you prove they were altered or were we just told this to keep the carrot dangling in front of you?

saying dc items should drop more because 3 classes use them is rather a silly argument imo.
To get a point noted you need to think a little deeper. If 90% of players played wiz should DC items still drop the most?...
The team are in a possition now that they can view statistics to make informed decitions about everything, if it was me i would view class totals (over lvl 30) sum sin/war/arch vs tao va wiz to decide how to balance multi class items.
You then have the problem of "hardcore" groups consisting of 1 or 2 wars but primarily wiz and tao gettin inundated with DC not ideal.
So you tweak standard mob drops to fit with class %.
You then track boss kills per class and adjust accordingly. If only wiz are killing KS make it drop more MC and less DC.
At least this way you can in some respect taulor a boss to drop for you.

If you are the "only" guild killing all the high level bosses, as you claim no one else's goes there. It's irrelevant upping more dc items as its only your group getting them? Nothing drops off mobs and low tier bosses, so it's not going to increase the market
the drops should probably be a touch in favor of DC, like 10% nothing significant imo.
warrs sins archer do pretty good damage in shop kit. wiz need decent kit to compete at pvp or pve, and will have more demand to gem higher tier items.
like comparing weaps - wms>dstaff is not that huge a difference, but jmace>dss is an obviously significant improvement. with this an an example, i think dss should be a touch more rare than a dstaff, but to be honest the drop files looked kinda lazy in regards to everything.

Weapon drop ratios are fine since they are class specific. DC accessories should be dropping more often. I agree that it should be done based on the % of players playing DC, MC, SC classes, but you only need to look at the price differences between them to see that there is a large skew in the favour of DC classes being played.
I do not expect them to put in the effort to have some dynamic system adjusting the drops on the fly based on server population, or do it manually regularly.
It does need altering though.

You are all idiots, Sam is going to start listening to you little cry babys soon and anal the server like ACEM2 where about 20 wizzs are running around with FF just destroying groups of 50+ people.
Drops are fine they never was bad people are just lazy, your all moaning about drops.. You wonder why ? Your killing WT's And BDD clears and MTK.. Go to orcs / Oma King / EvilMir / White General this is where all the crazy items are coming from.
You all need to have a good look at curse10 and maybe take a leaf out of there book ? They do fine and have nowhere near many members as some guilds. ( Not sure about wade aint been on since banned )

We(?) claim nobody puts as much effort in as us, which besides perhaps 1 or 2 guilds, is probably true. People do still hunt where we hunt, just not as much or are willing to actually fight for the boss (or win said fight)
So we would simply have more chance of getting them. What's wrong with this? Does effort put in not equal reward on here? :S
