[Design Blog] Adjustments to Luck Elixirs: Mythics and Arcanes can drop from mobs!

[VROOMIGoRealFast]

Hey Arlorians!

We’ve seen some confusion lately with our announced adjustments to Luck Elixirs and how re-rolling loot works, so I want to take some time to explain it to you.

When you kill a boss, the loot you receive is picked from the list of all items the boss can drop, known as the Loot Table. The Loot Table can have common, rare, epic, legendary, mythic, set, arcane, or vanity items. When you have a Luck Elixir and you defeat an enemy, you have a chance to reroll the item you’re supposed to get with a chance at better loot. Due to the way the Luck Elixir works, previously we couldn’t drop rare items like Mythic, Set, or Arcane. We enjoy just as much as you all when you kill a boss and suddenly see that amazing item drop on the floor, so we’ve made some adjustments to the Luck Elixir which now allow us to drop Mythic, Set, or Arcane items directly from enemies! The Antignome Set is the first to take advantage of this, and in the future, some bosses of the elite variety might drop some weapons that are pretty mythic. Oops, was that a spoiler?

The process starts with the initial pull of 1 item. This will be known as “the item you’re supposed to receive”. Once that item is pulled, if you have a luck elixir and it procs, the item is rerolled accordingly:

If the item you’re supposed to receive is Common, Rare, or Epic
At these rarities, the luck elixir will go back into the Loot Table, choose the next highest rarity (Common => Rare, Rare => Epic, Epic => Legendary), and randomly give you an item from that rarity. You are guaranteed to go up 1 rarity if the Luck Elixir procs in this situation.

If the item you’re supposed to receive is Legendary, Mythic, or Set
At these rarities, the entire Loot Table is rolled again (just like the first pull) and you will receive the better item out of the 2 pulls.

Example 1:
Pull 1 – Legendary
Pull 2 – Epic
Player Receives: Legendary

Example 2:
Pull 1 – Legendary
Pull 2 – Mythic
Player Receives: Mythic

This is equivalent to killing the enemy a second time and taking the better loot that drops, giving you 2 chances at the item you want!

If the item you’re supposed to receive is Arcane
Congratulations you’ve just gotten lucky enough to loot the rarest items in the game! We won’t even bother rerolling because you already have the best. Also don’t play the lottery for a few days as your luck has probably run out.

I hope this makes it easier to understand the new effects of using the Luck Elixir!

Currently re-rolling for that Antignome Belt

The two weapons are should not be compared, one is a powerful event weapon, while one is the base legendary for an expansion (weakest form of legendary).

Now please keep the thread on topic.

No, red axes are the strongest legendary weapon warrior. The galen is the second. What am I showing are the values of the two weapons, the new is stronger (DPS and STR) but for some reason have less damage and skill damage with it.

Because it has lower damage but higher hit rate I would assume.

Please try and PM if anything else, don't wanna derail thread.

Mhmm vroom, do we need to use a luck elixir? Or will lepre do? And also is it possible to just loot the set without re rolling?

[Ravager]

Does rerolling affect the Mold component needed to craft the Set armor? I know sometimes some items that are of craft/essence category, they can not be rerolled.

Wooooow lol.

It is because your Maul has Jewels in it. Honestly is this not a joke?

Also what Befs said makes no sense. You're right and he is wrong, but don't forget that Primary Stat jewels like Fury ones, they give you Health, Damage, Dps and stuff.

Axe has +30 de damage

Axe has +30 de damage

Why are you derailing this thread?
Anyways dps(damage per second) is different from damage....
I can have a weapon that does one damage, but hits 10 times a second. Or a weapon that have 10 damage, but his once every second. Both will have 10 dps, but have different damage value....

And ways... Thanks vroom for clearing this up

About that. How do you expect 2 weak fury jewels to give him 34 damage?

Luck Elixir and Lepre Pendant will reroll the same way, I'll clarify that in my post. And yes you can loot the set without a luck elixir or lepre pendant.

Does rerolling affect the Mold component needed to craft the Set armor? I know sometimes some items that are of craft/essence category, they can not be rerolled.

Rerolling will affect the mold component, since it drops like regular loot.

Your tittle says: From Mobs or Bosses o.O

Good catch! Lol. I still hope they look into drop rates, though.

[eugene9707]

well set item or mold wont drop from mob, maybe in future some other items.

Maybe it's a hint that they will be super rare drop from elite mobs :O

[bonjovi3223]

Thank you for the clarification Vroom. I thought you had run out of fuel .

[Donquixoth]

Lets torturing Jarl once more!!!

[Fear]

Are arcanes currently dropping from anywhere? Has anybody dropped any set items since this was announced?

[stricker20000]

May I ask how you can re-roll to a "rare" item from boss then? As far as I know lowest rarity available at boss (new maps) is "rare" so as you just described you should re-roll to epic then but sometimes you re-roll and get rare. Or do you re-roll from bronze chest to crap rare?
