    Default I pay, others get drops

    I am pushing to 56 before time runs out. I am buying elixirs where work permits. More than once I have seen a non-contributor get a pink drop (like lvl. 55 recipe) while through whole hour of 40 plat 4x run I get little to nothing. I don't have screenshots, STS has logs to know the truth. I kill with good success, I get combos, I don't know what else I need to do.

    STS (Sam? You listening?) What am I doing wrong that bad team players are getting pink recipe drops and I, almost halfway through lvl. 55, haven't gotten s**t in sewers?

    I have paid in the multiple $100 to play. If you are not trying to encourage NOT paying, you should look at this. I don't want the game dominated by rich people....but this seems like "don't pay here, you won't get anything for it!"

    Rant done. I'll thumb's up anyone who actually gives reasonable feedback. Trolls get a different thumb, elsewhere. Not my thumb either.

    You're not doing anything wrong. It's just bad luck that you haven't gotten any drops. It doesn't matter if you contribute everything or nothing at all.

    Just last night, I popped an hour of 4x pot too, Big Luck put on even. A different person got a RR Recurve. TWICE.

    He was the lucky one that night I guess, that's all. Luck really

    You aren't doing anything wrong, the odds just aren't rolling well for you. All drops are based on luck, pure real life luck.

    Good luck!

    I agree It's harsh, but the drops are random. I've spent a ridiculous amount myself with no major drop, but I knew that was a possibility from the start. At least the value of the 55 equips will drop as they'll be superceded by level 60 equips

    As said above, it's all luck. To put things in perspective, you're not happy that you farmed for an hour without a pink drop right? Well, there's been a time that I didn't get a pink... For 2 MONTHS. Ow yes, and I farmed at least 3hours+ a day at than time too. Then, after I took a break, I got a complete mm staff set in under an hour. Again, as said, it's all luck


    And for all doubters of my rockstar status:

    I've been doing some xp grinding over the last couple days and seen Catspaw go down hundreds of times. I was always potted and in over 14 hours of grinding recieved 1 recipe (crappy custom wing) while others in my group recieved multiple recipes. Just luck of the draw.

    If it weren't for bad luck, I'd have no luck at all --
    Two 56 chars and my only pink was a Battle Axe Recipe --
    Rigged I tell you, the game is rigged!

    (not really, I'm just horribly unlucky ).

    Random is random. I've used so many combo plat elixers in sewers and have had only 4 pinks. Two were worth anything. When I say tons of plat. Probable a total of 1k +.

    One single question for you: How long, in total, have you been farming Sewers?

    In the long run, you'll eventually get your worth in pinks. Trust me, I know. I farmed Balefort Sewers for about 3 months, putting in an hour or so each day. Some days I received nothing, other days I've got extremely lucky. Farm for about 3 months straight and you'll see a difference.

    Well, elixirs even with my big luck vanity dont give much too. No difference for me.



    My pinks... mainly 75% recipes from all classes >_>
    Nothin after all this time for my dual bear. Just a dex helm.
    I could even fortified 2 sets... but nothin to craft on.
    Once I would love to have a bow drop or axe/sword/shield... always for the others in team. Lucky them.

    It sucks, but drops are all based on luck.
    I was on elixer high runs the whole day yesterday on sl, only got like 3 greens (and none that were suitable for my character).

    the way to change the world is by doing one act of kindness at a time, care to buy some cookies?
