R201

It sounded too good to be real, so now they are screwing players over again and this is another event were grouping puts you at disadvantage
This is trash, why would i think that they would do something good?

 

Dude seriously! XD
I was just teasing him up
Nothing is changed with the buff ... and i don't think it will. It takes a long time to get a full buff ... they are making it this way so the weaker players can progress as well.

You see nothing is changed with the buff

 

ah you trolled me then
Thank kek, it was a joke, but it sound strange, i failed, the evil god of the Normies tricked me into believing a lie, like i believed the earth was round, now i'm wake and i do see the lies of nasa and lizard men, i'm keeping an eye on them

 

Dude, I totally fell for it \( •́д•̀ )/

 

Thank you its good to know arachna is ok but ill farm some keys either way just to be safe

 

I got 450 badges from a painful boss and 98 badges from miniboss with a buff of 20%.
So no problem, no guide...only kill

 

You got 450 badges with 20% buff?
Wow ... that means every single minion that boss has spawned was dropping you badges too

 

There is R201_2 version on test server so they probably have adjusted the drop amounts.

 

I will check in 5 min.

EDIT

I got 1650 drop with 230% buff
That is 500 badges drop.
also I have got a drop of 125 from a miniboss.
Looks like the drops have been boosted by something like 250%

 

I hate to jinx it, but it sounds like someone at DSO has been listening to the players. Great drops, now they are lowering the grind a bit.

 

So far I got these drops (in Fatal difficulty)
Boss:
x500
x625
x750

Leader:
x125
x150
x250

As we know there is a 10% chance for a Goblin spawn instead of regular Leader ... the goblin has a drop of a boss.

 

Fatal?

 

Yes I was only playing in Fatal.

 

Can somebody test the drops for bosses on Painful? Maybe now they are not the best option on the "only keys" strategy.

 

...or a video with a complete run in Painful.

 

If the things stay as they are ATM ... this is changing everything



Asar was not dropping badges ... now he drops.
And ... there is no key requirement on the entrance ...

 

On a different note... npc Grima (draken trader) added to Full Moon event.

Luck be with ye,

Tegan

 

I think it makes sense why keys are not required for Loxley Caverns and Eternal Grove - because the bosses there do not have a special arena just for themselves.
But Asar does have an arena just for the boss fight, so I mean it's reasonable to expect the key requirement to be added there...

I know some people like the draken merchant, but increased drop rates would be better. Back in the day uniques used to drop almost every other run. It wouldn't have to be that frequent now, though.
Also with the merchant and pockets full of draken, getting higher tiers is too easy for everyone. The need to gradually work your way from being able to drop tier 1 to being able to drop tier whatever is suppressed by a system, where a newbie is taken for an infernal shopping trip by his strong friends.

 

Grima is an assurance against unluckyness, so if you one of those cursed with unluck, you can always obtain the unique, so what if the noob obtains the weapon by buying? He has farmed drakens, i would say that getting by buying is by far much more meritocratic than dropping
And besides, it would be the same with increased drop rates, a noob who is carried inside will easily get the weapon without doing much.
Not that i am against increased drop rates, but the result would be the same
And besides, if you want the best weapon buying is not the best way to get it, the ideal would be to drop it

 

i agree with akageshi, i wish all gear merchants were removed or prices heavily increased, it breaks the enjoyment of the game for me, i'll explain

Currently when i do a boss in pw for example, i don't have any excitement over what might drop, i'm doing an m1 boss while i already have m5 gear. Even if that super rare unique set drops.. who cares? I'll melt it.

And when i get to actually doing inf2, i'll already have near perfect sets from all the materi drops, so i won't need the drops either.

Arpgs for me are all about loot drops, expecting that super rare thing that can drop anytime.. When that's gone, all i'm doing is grinding numbers, no expectations, no thrill, no fun.

This is why my fun in this game heavily dropped as soon as i bought my q8 set. There is no thrill anymore so i think i'll be looking for another game now.. Sucks because i thought the game will be fun for longer, i might just do events and play casually now.
