    Default Dragon drop rate lower? Or i have no luck

    Hey guys,
    So yesterday a couple of my friends and I were running The vampire feast and we saw no dragon drop whatsoever. Now we all had either thrashers or 3x Combo daily blessing. Also we ran this map ex least 50 times and all we got was recipes or crappy pinks worth nothing. Now I don't know if it is me but I am going to say in my opinion that the new update yesterday lowered the rate of dragon dropping. Or my group and I are just very unlucky. Express your opinions thanks.

    I see 1 dragon drop in the group for maybe every 15-20 hours of grinding, more or less depending on everyone's luck modifiers. I'd be surprised if they had to push a client-side update to adjust drop rates, though. That sounds like a function strictly of the server. It's possible they could have a virtual dial (or algorithm) to tweak drop rates at low times to encourage traffic and dial it back when traffic is healthy.

    CS prices are a rough indicator of supply and they've been going down. Looks like a green set can be had for cap now.

    Hey there,
    I farmed with a few friends yesterday for 3 hours and we saw 3 dragon drops (gold helm, gold armor, green armor)

    What is the key?
    Reroll

    If you get a 3x combo ALWAYS pair it with the 1.5x combo. You end up with 60% or so reroll, also if you have big or little luck ALWAYS wear it.

    Out of the 12 dragons I have witnessed dropping 11 have been off rerolls

    SIDE NOTE: I was running a 1.5x and bigger luck (didn't get any combo in my blessing) and I picked up a golden helm (my 4th dragon drop in 2 weeks)

    hope this helps.

    PS: SKIP VLOD. his drop rate for normal pinks is good but they arent worth much, and his dragon drop rate isn't very good. do these rotations Emma>Duke>Baron>RMK

    Definately random one day I get 1 in a 100 runs next day I get 2 in 4 runs and another day I got one in 8 runs 3 dragons I got I was using shamrock 2 of those 3 weren't reroll and the the other one I didn't have anything but 2x and that didn't reroll either so if you're trying to figure out the formula, don't waste your time

    Cool thread, nice tips Griffinfan.




    It's definitely not easy to get Dragons to drop but it's more possible than it was before. I'm not sure some of those being sold in the CS are stuff that ppl had from before but there has been way more pieces being listed & at under gold cap, reasonable prices! Remember when you checked the CS & there was nothing listed at all?
    I figure I'll post this pic of the best drop I EVER got in Pocket Legends!! That is the best feeling when you see that pink headline on the top of your page, nothing better! I couldn't believe it & I was happy for the rest of the day...the whole week lol, imagine the red helm used to be worth more than 2 gold caps a short time ago? I still can't believe it, actually! Amazing...

    Mt Fang Vampire Feast:Free
    •need to bring plenty of health pots & use them nonstop...all the bosses eat up health like you can't believe. Supervisor Lofus, Vlod, & Duke Edward are the worst...they drain you!

    •Run with Shamus Shamrock elixer 80/76 platinum an hour...need this for rerolls. Expensive but worth it if it happens....cheaper alternatives are combo elix plus big luck or bigger luck

    •Supervisor Lofus (his drop rate is pretty bad...sometimes he drops nothing at all. One time he dropped a Red helm so I can't stop farming him even tho he takes a long time & most like to skip him plus the long walk)

    •Emma (Her drop rate is bad although I've heard many ppl say they got stuff from her....easiest boss to beat as long as you time her waves)

    •Duke Edward (I used to hate him when I faced him as a Mage...better to tank as a bear as he eats birds & mages. Duke is the Top boss for dragon drops period!....all my drops have been from him. Got 2 green pieces & the red. I always have a good feeling when I go into his room.

    •Baron Gobble (The worst drop rate, he sucks....I always tell him this...taunting him. Some players said he's dropped a lot of stuff for them. He's annoying cause of the roach sounds & he throws you all over the room)

    •Vlod (I might start skipping him like Griffinfan says because he never drops either. Only cheap Mt Fang pinks that throw you off because you see the pink words on your screen & then your let down! I've witnessed him drop a few green dragon things in the past before the rate was altered.)
