It does seem that way, I got a sash from killing two Ophidians *ticks box*, Yet to get a Katana but when I do I'm not sure what will keep me fighting as I'll have collected all there is to get.very very boring...sorry... but events like the tokuna invasion were far better because u could see small rewards that were gonna make big rewards if u kept at it...so everyone kept fighting there for weeks!!!!this event as nothing.....plz devs give us a lil something to keep fighting...and i dont mean a '''1 in 10.000''' chance of a sword or sash........ or iam afraid the towns will simply get over run with monsters.
I havn't gotten anything either. It was fun for a while with my disco-tamer. Some dexers helped me kill the stuff faster and i discoed and tried to keep the dexers with heals alive. But after like 1.5h with nothing i decided to go back to fishing and screw this event. Iam not even talking about rewards. But you don't see any progress against the banes. Endless looping respawn .. that's so boring and makes the fighting absolutely pointless.
By the way .. why does every new monster MUST have the ability to teleport players nowdays? That is neither cool nor does it make the game more exciting. It's simply annoying. This teleporting of players just causes lag and when iam walking around while getting zapped i get easily out of synch with the server and have that nice rubberband effect. By the way every stupid critter targets me when i get teleported ... annyoing.
No way I.m fighting anything with the lag I've been getting lately so I will just wish those who are luck.
Do they drop on the blue demon guard, or on regular Bane guys too?Also had some lag on monday while fighting groups of bane or a demon, seems to be that the server stops doing things as well, or i would have been killed during that 15-20 sec forced break i had.
The droprate of katana's is not so bad, had more then one on saturday and one after 3 hours at monday. May take longer for a mage or tamer, but i think there is a very fair chance to get them.
Was fun getting Lycaeum finally under control , was not so easy there. As a dexxer, i do really appreciate any help when taking demons out. The faster the better with all the other spawn around. Especially disco tamers like Kas and some others do rock.
Got them only from demon guards.Do they drop on the blue demon guard, or on regular Bane guys too?
nearly fell off my chair when i read this..especialy since uve only just started...takes note ...Join Date: Dec 2010 Posts: 13...runs around bashing with a naked thief my arse!!!!Wow Mr negative THP Your could have used a mage, flung some Corp Por's out there. It is still fun to run about bashin them. I did it with a near nekid thief
If the bane guard is already attacking a player and you're already next to it (so no reason to teleport you), you can attack it as much as you like, even with a naked cook. Since they dont have any area damage on their special attacks, it wont suddenly attack you.nearly fell off my chair when i read this..especialy since uve only just started...takes note ...Join Date: Dec 2010 Posts: 13...runs around bashing with a naked thief my arse!!!!
Doubt it, spent time healing and rezzing tbh. Bought out the Meer's when the group of players thinned out and needed a bit more firepower. Only thing I couldnt kill with a meer captain or eternal were the guardian things. Was'nt aware there were special drops until this thread.so Stickypaws getting a katana with a naked thief is quite plausible.
Cannot answer that. But can show you the other extreme. Sampire, 10k ophidian and near 10k meer loyality, kills everything that looks like bane if it enters view. 11 katana drops now.Ok, simply wanted to ask:
has anyone gotten a katana drop from a guard while actually allied with the banes? I thought I would be very clever and took my ABC archer to kill bane guards, although he has around 2500 loyality points with them. Its working like a charm, they drop rather fast and the other spawn leaves me alone.
BUT: I have now soloed at least 60 guards without a katana drop. I also noticed that the ammount of items on a guard corpse seems to be A LOT higher when multiple people kill one compared to killing one solo.
My conclusion now is that you have to be loyal to the meers/ophys to get a drop at all or can someone tell me I am wrong?
Thx,
They're on the corpses. I've been there for 3 hours or so at every invasion so far, and got 1 Katana from the first day... and nothing since. I did however get one today in Cove, but it was on a corpse that someone had missed. As I'm checking every corpse I can, and killing hundreds of the Bane (I've gone from 5000 rep to 8300 for Ophids, at 5500 for Meer now) I agree the drop rate seems very, very funky to me...Do Katana's land in back pack or are they on the guards corpses?
Then it is pre-set and random.We've investigated the timers and code related to the invasion, and everything looks to be operating correctly.
We'll monitor for the next 24 hours. We are not gonna spoil what exact time the next wave should commence.
