after speaking with many players ingame, everyone ive spoken to is doesnt understand the logic in putting the level 45+ items in the level 40-44 ish cave.

Please for the love of god, at least add the new items to the subs/boss's of RedCave

Flames to a minimum please

I agree with this.

Vipers should drop 45 gear very rare, and things like boundless rings etc more common. 45/47 gear from boss. Its a solo/small group hunting area that you can clear a lot of mobs in fast if you take a big group.

45 gear should be rare in red cave and 47 gear very rare, the rates on boundless etc in RC seems ok. RC is slow for solo/small groups but decent for bigger groups. Much easier to RIP in redcave than in Yims.

Not sure on the logic behind the new items dropping in a weaker cave, especially as common as they are currently

Not sure what the complaint is here..

Just because the new Items hasn't drop from a Sub / Boss in read cave doesn't mean they cannot. (Weak Devourer isn't included as a sub).

My Little question is... y are all these items dropping from normal mobs, makes me wonder what bosses are for, I could geek 1 level in vipers and have a full kit of 45+

Takes the concept out of killing bosses and getting pretty boring now finding the only and best thing to do is level because you will get items at same time... Scrap the bosses no need for them

Done about 40% at level 43 and 10% at 44 in vipers, killing subs. Not had a single 45+ item. Thats with drop pot and crystal armour on. So they are not dropping nearly as often as you make out.

I do agree about redcave though. It might just be that so many more mobs get killed in vipers than redcave though.

Don't mind certain items dropping from mobs makes it worth while at least for that lvl range.

Weps armour helm ect should be boss only.

Let's face it anyone who is lower than 43 atm are gunna struggle trying to kill bossers as most are farmed a fair bit.

Least give the lower lvls a bit of hope of finding something shiny.

Not everyone is in a 25 man guild and some don't tend to be. Other wise sooner or later only be the top 50 playing.

On the flip side also agree on the drops should be the other way around tbh.

Vipers is a tough one as most lures are 30-50 mobs at a time.

Red cave is aids to hunt in due to retarded critical teleport rat hits. You need absolute focus to hunt there and its not fun at all tbh. Yims is the savior cave of this server. Literally changed the game for many of us. I think rc drops are epic. You get regular gems and as far as we know 45 n 47 items. Its just nobody likes going there. Yim mobs shouldnt be dropping boundless or gems or any of that. Its great exp grp cave and 45 47 items should be a rare reward. Which afaik is the case.

RedCave mobs do not drop 45-47 items.

you've said it yourself RedCave is more of a challenge, yet the easier of the 2 caves drop the items.

Not really playing atm but it sure does seem weird yims would be added after rc and have the drops instead.

So you got GG easy mode, with best loot in game. Of course you don't want that fixed.

The evidence is right in front of everyone, red cave is deserted. It is simply not worth hunting for the vast majority of people.

You complain at having to focus and pay attention to hunt? That seems a bit backwards to me personally that is the idea of the game is it not?

Vipers dropping the new 45/47 items would have been a non issue, if RC was updated with drop rates at the same time. As it currently stands red is not worth hunting because the best gear in game is much more likely to be found in vipers which only encounters a small exp loss compared to red.

As a result of this people have abandoned red cave and are spamming vipers. What should have been done is the 45/47 items included into red cave drops alongside the introduction of vipers. Vipers drop rates were initially too high and it appears that the drop rates have been stealth nerfed lately.

Jamie seems to be insinuating that soul dev could be dropping the new items, but the frequency at which they are found and killed vs the frequency of yim subs does not stack up.

On top of the the regular yim mobs dropping the new items vs red cave not does not stack up.

Needless to say as a result of all this red is now generally empty bar a few of us who go down to kill behe/go elsewhere when pking is happening. Vipers is the be all and end all of the server at the moment. Decent exp, best items on the best rates.

The Rates on these items hasn't changed since they were implemented, the only "adjustment" to vipers drop files were the removal of PB items.

But you can't get charms from Yimoogi's and these are the real winners next patch.
