    Default Questions aimed at the DL developers.

    Why are the spawn rates drop rates so Low


    i am extremely curious
    I have been here since 2011 and nothing has changed the drop rates are the same ever since the initial release back in 011 or mid 012.
    secondly killing hygrath causes lag that causes the game to stop this has been happening since 2012 !Events well you already know there are 2 events per year.......

    The new boss was added to the game and he started dropping stuff and well every one was happy,2 days later he spawns at a 0.5 probability and doesn't drop any thing.
    i don't understand why the hardcore farming.I love spending plat and supporting the game but now I feel more like quitting rather then staying around as per i have no motivation what so ever.

    A 0.3 Drop rate is ridiculous for the best weapon


    I am not the only one who thinks this.Some sort of new drop rates should be added to the game code


    Took me a year to get axes 36
    took me 7 months for bats.

    I really hope a STS member replies cause guys I need your opinion.

    Hey Hassan, sorry that you're having so much frustration with the drop rates. We could certainly take another look at them and see if they could be better tuned. I'll pass this thread along to the devs to see what we can do.

    Making this thread was a smart decision, because they'll hopefully listen, and make it easier to find certain items, for those people with trouble farming.

    i found new vanity drop rates are average. but rather other stuffs finding bats, relic axes, black druidic top and legs and also gamer top are very harder than new update drop rates. Hope you consider that plz. thx

    i am playing this game from past 2012. I never get drops of black druidic top and legs, bats. i farmed there daily 4 hours. no drop still. I just dream about those relic axes and hammer. Its just a mirage for new players. Hope you consider drop rates of all.

    BET... the few people who voted 'No', already obtain some of these extremely rare items.

    & props to you Hassan, for creating a thread aimed toward real issues that STS actually noticed!

    I've spent thousands of plat and played every day for years up until the Grant Hauer update.

    When the Mad Scientist was bugged for a day and spawned every time I entered the map, I killed him a hundred times per hour. He dropped nothing but junk gems and weapons. I got 2 good drops out of spawning him about a thousand times. Good luck spawning him at all now. So much for a casual mobile MMORPG. PFT!

    I don't even play anymore... after playing every day for years!

    Well I don't think that drop rates are too low..I have just played for 6 months and i got pretty well drops..I think its all luck..because some elites are too much rich, on the other hand many are not at all rich..Well it is also true that the elites (rich players) play a lot to get rich.According to me the drop rates aren't too low.

    They aren't too low for people who have tons of time to play. On the other hand, people who don't have as much time are seriously out of luck, and it's unfortunate it's balanced out that way.

    The improving the drop rates in DL so that new players can get some stuffs. and also now there is lot of difference between old players stacking all good items and new players struggling to get them. And scammers are there too snatch from newbiees. New players playing this game for fun has no choice to get frustrated and quit the game. Hope STS should consider thisand improve rare items drop such as Hammer, Relic Axes, bats.. and also bring some old and new stuffs also...

    At least something about the hammer since there is a glitch working against most who try. Or maybe even have something where the drops do get logged someway(Even if just Harg'Kyth's Domain), so that if someone *does* drop the hammer and it just so happens to crash, then there's proof. That way, there won't be distrust when people say they dropped it but a crash took it.

    Surely with all this technology today.... there has got to be a way something signals a relic has been dropped.

    I call shenanigans.

    Other games have this feature. Even mobile mmo's like Order and chaos online got it.
    The problem in those games though is the way the dev's define the word "loot". According to them it's not your loot before the item is not in your bag. So even with drop logs they won't hand it out. Also if you can prove that you couldn't loot the drop because you either got kicked out of the team or simply crashed before you could do it, they will tell you the same.

    What list? I didn't make any list and other games have a 0.2% chance to drop an epic item as well

    in all my 21 years of gaming i have yet to see a 0.3 drop rate or less that resets every time you enter
    plus its not even 0.3 its lower then that.
