as far from what i read, the boss brawl drops are higher than the elite map boss drops.
so they all have the same item drops except the gladiator arena has higher chances.

i've gotten 3 pinks and they've all been noble. They've been the trash versions tho. If I had to guess I'd say these trash versions have a high drop rate to keep us coming back and playing (and spending plat revs) but the good versions have a low drop rate to hold their value in auction. I checked auction this morning and there still is only one of the good rogue noble helm and armor in there.

Yea, its like a noble raining there. My first round dropped 3 noble, then nothing, then the 3rd or 4th round 2 noble again. Was some good drops, noble plate of will lvl31x1, i sold it fast for 800k, now today that is worth only 450k.. There should be some other drops beside noble, egg or something else. I would be happy if i could see sometimes entombed, kraken skewer, firesquid, bloodhammer armor, etc..

Same here ^. I had to respec to pve to actually survive in the arena. At this point, I see no point why I should farm there as opposed to any other place.

I agree Chili. Honestly I think the spider drops should be cut in half or taken out entirely. The bosses seem elite level, but those spiders make even some of the best parties spend too much plat to live. The cost benefit just isn't there. Especially if you're a luck stacker like me. Cost too much plat before you get anything worthwhile.

Its a new area shiuld be new equipment, this recycled equip through plat elite area, glad arena, and elite nodr is old.... have more options, more items, and have them drop weapons!!! However I do like it actually drops items and not dumb chests

Lol knew it would be like this. I give it a couple more days and ppl will tire of this arena due to plat burn vs reward cause of death rate

The problem is its making the market drop so we can't make money, but mythic and arcane are so rare those prices are astronomical. ...I love how sts rewarded mystic/arcane rogues with basically 10 million gold amulet for a time trail and they think 89.99 in real life money = 1.7 million gold....this econony is outta control, plat needs to equal hifher gold

If you fight a boss with the Spiders that attack, you might notice something that causes those spiders to show up. Stop doing that thing that makes them show up and they might not be so bad.

That doesn't mean we don't look for techniques. I wouldn't assume all players just go in spamming.

Hey all!

The tip for the spiders is don't move around, stay in one corner (like at the lamps) and attack from there... Then you will only trigger the spawn of a few spiders at once!

gl and tc,

I will have to give that a try but it's hard to stay still, my Sorc is a bit squishy. :)

Yep, the drops are just lame, and furthemore ruining the prices of noble armor. Oh well... Now that I got the achievements, unless they change the drops here I am not wasting my time in this huge plat sink of an arena....

Tried the arena and I burned through so many plats even with the best team! More so with random pug and sometimes can't even finish because others don't use plat to revive and it's impossible if you're down even 1-2 members. I stopped playing it as it's actually worse than elite mines in Nordr where it cost 10plat to play. This is free but potentially may need to revive more than that what it's worth just for junk armor! I've concluded that this arena is meant to suck people in initially because of its "free" gimmick. It would cost the average player many plats just to finish it. In no way playing this map on the same level of fun Jarl farm runs. I'd rather do a Malison run than this plat burn junk.

See, sts is making this game to plat needy. When some well known players quit and some of us even came out and said sts is.getting to money hungry, everyone else said they need to make money and blah blah. Theres 4 legends games, people still buy plat on each(al being the most imo) so theres still plenty of money being made. On devs side, iam glad that they made a free elite dungeon for non plat users
Sure it may be harder but plat is not necessary. When it comes down to it you can use 10 plat to run a elite dungeon quickly or use non to go threw hell, waste more time, and rack up alot of deaths(reviving is free not just plat wise). Sts is still sticking by one policy, use plat to save time, or dont and waste time
