As most know these are the bosses to get the retro super classy items as drops from
I actually prefer fighting Onyx because it seems like more fun to me, but it gives way more deaths and takes probably 3 times as long.
So I am wondering if they have the same rate of the new drops, if so I hardly think onyx is worth it.

I dont know about the drop rates but i know onyx can be fast if you have a tank bear like mine distracting elite onyx while the rest of the team kills the healer onyxes(running around in circles buffing and taunting lol)whenever i do that noone ever dies

Even with a fast team it is longer, especially since you have to kill Aunt Emma to get down there and walk all the extra distance.
I would like developer feedback for the rate chances even if they are approximate

Guess that's true, I am always the killer guy that doesn't wanna leave any form of evil behind

Ill assume it's like magma mini bosses in that Emma has a chance to drop, so there's that tiny plus.

You don't have to kill Emma. Just destroy those black crystals and you can go down

Back on topic, it would be very interesting to know the relative drop rates. Or really, since everyone knows elite onyx takes a lot longer than red dragon, this should really be seen as a suggestion to the devs to make onyx drop rate higher to compensate (if it isn't already).
