Dropproblems, my experience

[Cahaun]

Wow no wondering I don't get anything good >_<

[Rare]

My wife just shake her head and walk off every time see me

I know the feeling

[Wretch]

I know the feeling

I will third that remark.... But only for playing.


Sad thing for me... Main has all the drops, alt hasn't gotten a single pink drop yet! (26 now)

I'm also thinking that some characters will get certain drops that other characters will not. No matter how many times I've run rooftop, I haven't been able to get the albino bats with any of my alts, yet someone else runs once and gets them. One alt will get something that another alt can't get. It's not just the bats, it's everything. The system is messed up and frustrating as all heck! This issue needs to be fixed if they want ppl to continue playing. I'm not going to purchase any more alt characters, just to get vanity drops. If that's the strategy, then it's over. I don't think ppl have ever been this frustrated over a game. That's my two cents.

This is actually an interesting scenario I've been thinking about. Reason i say that it seems like I can only lot certain pieces (rares). I don't want to get into specifics of what, but there are certain pieces i have been trying to loot for a long time that won't drop to me.

But i have gotten several of one rare piece.

And actually on my alts i haven't looted any rare vanities including a lvl 10 alt. So based on my experience alone, I think that level/kills is not a factor. Although unlikely, maybe different loot tables for different people is a possibility.

I really don't believe the low level rate theory. I leveled from one to 17 and got a orange desire helm, a snake mask on my 26 and undead antlers on my 24 earlier today after hundreds of runs. It's pure coincidence.

[Reyven]

So based on my experience alone, I think that level/kills is not a factor.

I still believe that level/kills does have an effect on the loot drops, but in addition to that, I believe that the different loot for different ppl also exists. There seems to be a few things occurring. Either way, it's an issue. If we knew that going in, we may not have tried so hard to get something that was impossible to get anyway.

Alright, I haven't read most comments here (just too lazy sorry)
But I might can help abit with my experiences

I have a lvl 26 vampire (my one and only char) and I'm getting vanity drops all few runs.

1st I highly recommend to solo run. It's actually easy especially when you plan to feed (there's no team mate killing that one enemy you were planning to feed on)

2nd Kill every single monster and destroy every single item. They all drop vanity, they all and I have received the rarest vanities just like albino bats and dark manic mask from trash.

3. Complete the entire map, so kill all ghosts and monsters, smash all trash, collect all junk items and also kill the boss. If your haven't got lucky then just repeat

[Wretch]

It's those darn bats.... I know I have run countless times with no luck, I don't want to think about how many judgement has done... Makes my thumbs just blister!

Had my luck on pretty much everything else the same way, just no bats...

Best of luck to all!

If only it worked that way for everyone. I only do solo farming, I kill and destroy everything, and I've repeated maps so many times that my head starts spinning, yet still no vanities (on my higher lvl/kill characters). It's nice to know that at least someone is succeeding.

[Kuero]

Almost, I'm farming since event start now for undead mask, no found yet. I really appreciate my albino bats and dark manic mask drops but I would have preferred getting the limited vanity before. Because dark manic and albinos are unlimited drops

Congrats, that's awesome!! Wish I were that lucky.

[Wretch]

Ahh poo... Just posted about no bats for ya.... Oh well... Bout time! And congrats!!!

Trying to get the white bats i ran roof assaillent over and over with my main. He now has almost 150 k kills, no luck. I decided to do a test.

I made an alt i ran roof as soon as i could but also other maps dropped loads of vanities to me. On roof no bats bleeeeh but loads of socialite legs. Seemed i had my lucky char in my alt. Then the count came on 10 k, demon achievement. I had NO vanity whatsoever since! Also pinks seemed to drop less. Looks like high killcount is killing the droprate. Hard work gets rewarded with bad luck. For me it seems there is a serious problem with the dropmeachanics.

While running for vanities with my high level alts i noticed that certain powers used yeilded less drops, period. When killing mobs with rats i noticed way fewer drops, than with jump and blades. To test my theory i started using SKILLS than inflict more body jarring attacks and noticed just more gems and everything else dropping in greater numbers. I suggest to you it has little to do with the level, and more to do with the types of skills used. Lower levels cant use attacks like rats, or fire, so they have no choice but to use the skills with body jarring effect. Try changing the skill you use and you will start seeing more drops

I think you are all reading much to far into this. Its random... I think you all should understand that there is a .01 chance for bats to drop... They are suppose to be uber rare and just because you dont have them doesn't mean we are dealing with a flawed system. Just means you need to keep at it. I am sure that if you would've kept running missions with your higher lvl characters instead of buying new ones you would have been received the same drops at some point. Keep at it and good luck to all of you.

Off topic, did you get the bats on Rooftop Assailant? If not, what map?

Roof tops.

[MightyMicah]

The more kills I get, the more freaking biker tops I get. Maybe those don't count? Or maybe I'm just destined to be a biker...

Seriously though, I think it's all in our heads :-)
