    Default Dragon drops.

    I'm ticked. I have been playing since this game came out (took a break during nuri and fang). Ever since I heard about dragon drops at fang, I have been farming for it with luck elixes after I cap. I have poured hundreds of dollars and time into this game.

    Then I see a level 60 who started playing less than a month ago walk into a random feast run and get a blue dragon armor drop. He doesn't even know how or where to equip it. He wasn't using an elixir, as I'm sure he doesn't know what those are either.

    Tonight I was farming with a guildy in feast and I was thrashing (just regular). We saw a few pinks here and there, then I get a l65 pink without re roll. If I'm not mistaken, if it would've rerolled, would it have been dragon? Because to my knowledge an l65 pink is the highest on the fang loot table before dragon. Needless to say, I'm ticked.

    pink can re-roll into another pink, but it isnt necessarily a dragon
    tbh, a dragon could be gotten orioginallky n then elixir reroll activates n reorolls it into a differnt pink == trolled

    The way I interpret that luck elixes work, is that you can only reroll up. I don't know. I could be getting mad for no reason and the pink I got was basically worthless, so I just gave it away. I'm just tired of never being bale to get a dragon drop. I can buy it, but then I wouldn't treasure it as much.

    pinks don't reroll into other pinks. They way it works is each color has a drop table. So for example, if you get a pink, perhaps 2% of pinks are dragon items, the others are other pinks. All the reroll does is bump you from one color up to the next. Once you get a pink, it is still very rare to get a dragon item and no elixir is going to help that.

    Luck elixirs aren't much, if any, help when it comes to farming dragon gear since purples drop so rarely. In fact, they don't drop at all in the main campaign of Fang. People have said they drop in Feast, but personally I have yet to see a purple drop that wasn't a re-roll from a green.

    To be honest ive spent 12 hour days doing feast and seen no dragon for 2 days and on the 3rd day there was 8 dragon drops in a 12 hour period no lie. Believe it or not, I got my 2 out of it. Just grind away an Ill bet you a mill you'll get 1. Might take a few days but that one lucky day will come around keep at it.

    You are mistaken. A purp if dropped without a reroll does not mean it will automatically reroll into a pink. The way it works is it gives you a second chance, and if the second drop you reolled is better you keep the better of the do, its not an upgrade. Think of it like this, you do 100 runs abs get 100 drops, if you had 100% luck the entire time it would be like you doing 200 runs except you're not getting the double drop just the possibility of the latter being better.

    Umm...when I get shamus elixir every single drop says "rerolled", 100% of them except occasionally a pink which doesn't because it's the highest color.

    You are guaranteed a reroll which is what he said.

    What he means is the item you get may be the rerolled item or the original depending on what you rerolled.

    Basically you get the best of the two drops.

    So if I farm for dragon without luck elix, I will have the same, if not more chance of getting a dragon than someone who is farming with 100% reroll?

    No, you won't. Re-rolls do help your chances.

    Perhaps a developer can chime in about this.... What you say here is how I think it should work, but not how I think it actually does work. It seems to me you just get your drop upgraded one level. The reason I say this is that when farming with shamus, I get almost all purples. Yet when farming without shamus, I get almost all greens with only an occasional purple like 5% of the time. I can do the math.... If what you say is true, then I would still get mostly greens even with the reroll since most of the time the original and the reroll would both be green. Also, when farming with shamus, I've never once gotten an orange, but when farming without shamus I get plenty of oranges. You can't tell me that not once in thousands of items dropped was the original and the reroll both orange. I don't believe it works this way at all. I think it upgrades you one level 100% of the time. So you never get an orange because when you roll an orange, it is upgraded to green. And greens upgraded to purple -- this is why most drops end up being purple, because most drops without shamus are greens. And then you get the pink about 5% of the time which is the normal drop rate for purples.

    If shamus worked the way you say, then your chance of a pink would be double that of farming without shamus. But it's not double, it's way higher than that. When I farmed Humania without shamus (before I bought plat ever) I got like 2 pinks in 4 weeks of playing. Once I started using Shamus, I would get pinks every day, sometimes 4 or 5 in the same day. The chance for pinks with shamus was not double, but was like 10 times higher, maybe even more.
