Champ Spawn Drop Rate Post Pub 58

Hi,

I played on Pacific. In the recent months, I have been doing Trammel Champ Spawn like mad. Sleepy, Humanity, Spirit, I just keep looping between them. Weekends, I can do like 6-10 a day. I have gotten some replica and drop before pub 58.

Now, after pub 58, so far ... NONE. I have made a habit of asking people at the end of spawn if anyone got any drops. Those who answered me has not gotten any drops post pub 58. Now, I see others start to ask the same question at the end of the champ.

We know the spawn timer was broken by pub 58... is the drop as well ?

The drop rate should be 30%.... out of 20-30 champs which I have done post pub 58, no one got anything. It just seems weird.

Just want to check if it is just me, or the revert of the old champ rewarding system does not benefit my style of playing and character type.

ps. I used archer

We feel your pain!

My wife, myself, and a friend have now done the glade 14 times since pub 58 and NOT ONE DROP. The one drop we did have (pre pub 58) was to a person that didnt even join in the fray until tier 3. Doing the glade is fun...that must be our only consolation..because we sure havent been rewarded in any way!!!

Devs....maybe this needs to be looked at?????

How about others posting if this is (or isnt) happening to you. We sure hate thinking that it is only us having this bad luck.

I don't believe it's working properly. I don't care what anyone says...

The droprate is nowhere near 30% from my spawning experience and I solo many spawns.

Did 4 Oaks Today nothing and 2 Merkatus nothing.

Right now I'm on an 0-12 run and I've had many runs where I've gone 0-9 or 0-10 so I'm convinced that the rate is nowhere near 30% or it's not working like it should.

Ditto that for SoT's. I posted about this the other day. I was averaging 3 scrolls in Tram every 2 tiers. Now I am lucky to get 1.

There's always people complaining about high drop rate , too much money etc
It's always bugs me why people would complain about OTHER PEOPLE getting drops.

Personally my drops have always been low and I've gotten 1 replica.
I dont' spend a whole lot of time at the champ spawns due to the fact that I haven't received many drops. But the monsters seems to like my chars any time I go through there. More risk / less reward... Hence it's never been worth it for me

I've done about 3-4 spawns so far. No SoT's and no replicas. Still fun though.

Prior to Pub 58 (with typically 2-3 of us doing the champ), from start to finish on numerous spawns in Ilsh, I would get between 1-2 SOT's. After 58 I was getting 2-3 SOT's. Then the 58 "fix" came a day or two later, at best I'm getting 1 SOT per spawn. I typically do the spawns with my chiv/dexxer, non stop whirlwinding HUGE piles of spawn in tiers 1 and 2 or my necro spamming wither in tiers 1 & 2. Whatever was changed after the pub 58 "fix" definately lowered the SOT drop rate. The same 2-3 guildies and I do typically 5-6 champs a day and we are all averaging 1 SOT a piece per champ now.

Thanks for the replies,
I am glad to hear people are still getting drops.
But, just for clarification, could you also let us know if the spawns are done in Trammel or Felluca ?

Thanks

Ok, I just did Humilty(Ilsh) Reptile to three red canldes past tier 3 SOLO. Result = ZERO SOT.
Next, went to Valor (Ilsh) and brought Arachnid nearly to Tier 4 SOLO. Result ZERO SOT. Very frustrated but figured heck just REALLY bad RNG luck. So, on to Tokuno champ. Brought to Tier 3 SOLO as well. Guess what, ZERO SOT.
All three spawns solo'd to at least tier 3 in a total of roughly an hour and twenty minutes. And zippo to show for it. Well, that is with the exception of a Night's kiss, a Burglar's Bandana, and a Lolo's Lute. BTW did all three champs with chiv/dexxer. Non stop whirlwind and plenty of Holy Light.

I'm sorry but since the pub 58 "fix" the drop rate of SOT's is amazingly low. Please Dev's try it for yourself and you will see how absurd this truly is.

Thank You.

Come to fell and do a spawn, there are plenty of players who I am sure would more than welcome you to try and get replicas. I get replicas all the time in fell. I can't say they drop in my pack but it sure if fun looting them off trammies who get angry when they don't get one.

Yeah, it takes plenty of fell players to kill one trammie.

Prior to pub 58. I was getting at least 2-3 SoT's per spawn. Also got one replica and two swamp tiles out of around 15 spawns. That was in ilsh/tok. And i only started doing spawns again about 3 days before the publish.

Now im lucky if i get 1 SoT in a spawn and have not seen a swamp tile/replica at all. I have done about 40+ spawns since publish 58/fix.

95% of the spawns i do are start to finish with my necro/mage/spellweaver solo and grouped. Im not sure if the drop rates were intended to be reduced so much but i personally think its a little low or something is buggered.

However when i go to fel just to work the spawn for a SoT i usually get one about 5-10 min in and it always seems to be a .9 or 1.0.

Prior TO pub 58 the drop rate was fine...

Post Pub 58 the drop rate is insane!!!

Makes me laugh, ive never heard carebears whine so much!

This should be put on the bottom of the issue-list. I think we all know this game should have higher priorities than satisfying the spawners. RPD, map glitches, PvP balance, duping, speedhacks, etc etc.

You're supposed to fix the sinking foundation before you fix the crooked second-story balcony (or even add on the second-story)!

I make it out alive pretty much every time with nothing now. So ya something is wrong. And your wrong. If people did spawns for nothing and just to make it out alive, then whats the point eh billy? Were not saying you should get something every time. But nothing in about 40 spawns is not right pal.

Your correct to a point... Only the real answer to the problem is to not Add any new content at all until everything is fixed and in tip top working order. So before you attack the so called "carebears" maybe you peeps should start thinking before you start flaming and calling people names. When it comes down to it we all want the same thing. A balanced game that works for EVERYONE that enjoys the game.

IMO the people calling the names here are the real losers... I bet your all racist too.

Trammies, Carebears, Reds, Felucians. What the hell is the diff?

We are all just players in a game that is broken in many ways. And we are so used to it being broken that its easy to jump on the "Its not workin right train"

One of the biggest problems in this game and on these forums is no one can find common ground or understanding and work together without jerks coming out of the woodwork to flame/grief the hell out of them. You all know who you are. There is such a thing as holding your tongue or being the bigger person. One thing for sure is the virtue Honor has been lost here for the most part and in game.

I know some people come up with some insane idea's and or unrealistic things but do you really think the devs are gonna do what they say unless you put your lame ass flame in?

I come here for information and the sharing of idea's. And most of the time i find myself having to leave because of the negativety towards each other that goes on here.

I wasn't able to start spawning until after pub 58 because I was so busy with my schedule. I can't say I'm all that impressed from what a lot of others are saying and from my current experience. I've been doing up to 20 spawns a day for the passed week and a half since pub 58 and haven't gotten any replicas and only about 8 SoTs.
