Before all the trolls take over this thread, I was not one of the people complaining about them before they were changed.

I think the drop rates have gone from one extreme to the other, in the past day ive personally made over 7mill from drops from normal mobs? Just think something needs to be done about this before the server is ruined. Yes maybe the drops needed to be increased by 10/20% .. But not 200%!

Edit:
Spent last month and a half grinding it out of my kits from BOSSES. Now regular mobs drop pretty much all the stuff I've ever hoped for. Yep think I'm done with this server.

Must admit I was wanting a slight increase to bring it more in line with official mir drops but this is just way too far, the market is already getting destroyed price wise with the huge influx in items.

Decisions such as these are ones that heavily ruin the server. They listened to the moans and went seriously overboard with drop adjustments.

Very disappointed tbh.

Always happens on a LR, never ending cycle of "we want a LR" and when they have a LR " we want drops in the first month, as we all remember Euro through rose tinted glasses!"

I hate to tell this community "i told you so"


But i ****ing did! so their!

books needed upping, everything else was spot on. Starting to lose faith in the teams ability to siphon out the bullshit from what the server needs.

It's good how it is now, only problem I still see is some places drop and some still were not touched.

The reason the user count on this server has been so high, is for the fact people actually have to work for their items.. Not just have them handed to them on a plate!

Im sure Sam didn't intend for the drops to be as often as this, I just hope he manages to see this and take a look for himself, before its to late.

Let me rephrase that.

The reason the UC is so high, is because this is the only server without massive game changing bugs and exploits on a stable set of files.

If some released this server on TD 2.3's it would have 4 Users.

Pretty much this.

It is only because of how advanced and what can be done with the chronicles files is why the usercount is bigger then your average server.

Oh and reguarding the drop files....

The damage is done.

aye, when you look at it (totally from a server creator Envir point of view)

There's nothing new, and its just pretty much a carbon copy of Euro, and as usual not even a properly done carbon copy, as they messed up the drops quite bad, which always happens i suppose.

Personally i think they had the drops right the first time, Minus the lack of Spells ( im a big believer spells shud be like WOW and just unlock as you level)

How-ever The source/files and the background is way more advanced/stable than Anything else avilable giving them a massive advantage in drawing usercounts, as people know that their isnt 1000's of bugs/cheaters/exploiters like heroes/ruby/td 2.3

What exactly has dropped? All i seen from chat is a few dragon rings, plats, few 35 books, to me it's hardly game breaking, infact it's more of a welcome change if you ask me, you can say you worked hard to obtain these items but the past few days before the change these were started selling on tm a lot more anyway.

Here's my point of view, I was someone who complained ONLY about Past Bichon, being honest it needed some TLC, I've hunted PB and killed about 6k~8k Mobs (since changes), I would say I am about 500k better off (would have been more if some skills still had value); perfectly fine for the amount of time that took.

It is my opinion that PSC / PI were fine (didn't need changing) as I already made plenty of cash there selling trash items.

I have not hunted anywhere else so I cannot comment.

Whilst drop rates maybe high for PSC / PI, I need to remind myself that these are trivial items and not really that rare.

It does seem to be something that frequently happens with this server and previous server. Evry change that is made is like times 10 what it was eg. Cast speed, items, mob strength.
And then when it's reported "oh it's a bug. It's not meant to the like that".

Can we not make use of the test server you had and test something's before we implement them.

As it is now I am thinking the likes of dragon rings should be common IMO.

I have not witnessed a huge change In Drops.

Yep, extremely disappointed with how they have handled this situation, big kick in the teeth to those who actually hunt bosses and have spent weeks farming, I hope they can learn from this and display less incompetence in the future.
