Hive Legend drop glitch?

**foulu** · 07-26-2012, 09:16 PM

Hello, I want people to take this info with grain of salt. I know this might be bazaar but try it out. First, I want to confirm the following rumors about the hive run:

Boxes open or closed DOES NOT AFFECT LEGEND DROPS
Having legend drops in your inventory or with you DOES NOT AFFECT LEGEND DROPS.
Killing Queen beginning or end DOES NOT AFFECT LEGEND DROPS

Any other insane rumor provided is ill or created as a hassle. HOWEVER...The glitch...

For some odd reason, at the Queen boss if you take it to the left upper corner by the green eggs I've seen legend items dropped much better. Two dropped from my loot, and three more. This was a total shock as we further experimented. Instead of the usual 100 runs a day. Today and last night was only no more than 20 runs and saw better drop rates.

Again, take this with grain of salt of info.

I just tried the queen in hive with a miners, and it reroll dropped me a surplus A-ok or some not even of level white.

I will try and get a picture of this, i need to switch devices. This is so screwed up.grrrrrrr

Here it is a picture is worth a thousand words. I spent 40 plat (2 miners) to get a picture of it.
This was saving the queen for last in the hive. Read the drops. A white should not be possible on a reroll.

Well there's no harm in testing that out.

Also, yes, Killa, my group was just getting WHITE and SURPLUS drops at the queen:

I already emailed STS right when I heard it happen. It happen to my friend after they did a quick update today..

I think re-rolling for a white or a gray is the definition of an epic fail.

Im glad we have screenies of such madness

That is absolutely correct. There should not be a white drop on a re-roll. That's the update that was about. Try further testing killing in that corner. Again, it takes a few tries until you see it. But I will say I am happy to get my two legend items for the first time. Miner's luck is useless so be advise not to use those potions or waste platinum at the moment. I find it shameful people are wasting platinum on a ninja update without the community being notified by spacetime studios.
