I am not sure if it is me but hunting loot this VU seams to be so repetitive and boring. there dont seem to be any piron pbr's dropping and this is in a reasonable sample share of mob kills. and over 100 globals ! all looking very similar !!! I am now getting a little bored of loot windows consisting of. Shrapnel / BLP Pack / Weapon Cells Hides & oils - seams to not be a lot of difference within any global or hunt and is even getting harder to motivate to go hunting when you know your going to get more of the same ! Yes Yes I know MA Control the Loot - but come on this isnt normal and yes I can go through every global screenie and there all pretty similar. Kadra Loot Teladon Loot Zadul
I've experienced the same thing. The first week I came to Arkadia (about a month ago), I was hunting Zadul, and I got 9 limited TP II chips from them in a period of 24 hours. Since then, I've killed about 35,000 monsters, I've received 2 (L) weapons, one esi, and one unlimited pair of canis legs. All other loot was shrapnel/hides/wools/oils. Not a single additional TP chip for ~22,000 more zadul kills either. It seems like an item gets "added" to loot chance for a short time, then it is no longer possible to drop for a while.
Since shrapnel is taking on most cases the biggest part on any global, I believe that's why loot is so moron. I don't even recall last time zadul gave me a piron. Think we should have shrapnel or universal ammo on TT and get our loot back as it was
FYI, I sent an in-game mail to an Arkadian official about this. He was very polite and said he'd look into it. This weekend, hunting for about 10 hours netted be 7 different (L) weapons. I don't know if it's coincidental, but has anyone else been having better luck?
After 50 Teladon Globals on Saturday I actually got a Piron PBr-52 at Full TT - I wait to see the auction filling up with Pirons ;D
I've been saying that for last two years! And I'll still maintain it's because the loot tables and item drops got screwed because of the grindathon missions. I'll defend the grinding missions for newbies (upto 200 kills) to get them use to hunting but after that Sorry if I seem like an old sod but I truly believe they were worst thing to ever happen to EU.
Yes And I think several others will agree on the below post if you have not seen it. http://arkadiaforum.com/threads/unl-herman-mako-weaponry.11907/#post-88649
Well, it can't drop itrms all the time Or there wouldn't be any markup. I think pirons not dropping have to do with them falling out of vaults and then subsequent resource caps. Becareful with shaking the tree too much or we will end up like calypso. The most boring and half assed loot tables in the game. I want to see more unlimited things drop.. to distribute arkadia's brand in the game. Not necessarily from my land areas but from the entire planet as a whole. Perhaps even little temp skill pills or some other quickly consumable items that won't just be sent to the shredder.
