New Patch and SOTs

[felix777]

Well, since the new patch SOTs seem uber rare. I have killed close to 10,000 spawn monsters in fel spawns since the new patch and have received 0 SOTS. That seems like a lot less than 3%. Is this a bug or did the person who mentioned that drop rate have it wrong, or did he mean only 3% of spawns have a sot at them????? Others have noticed this too. Thoughts?

seems like its the same as it was a week ago to me since they have not changed the sot drop rates yet that will be in the next publish this was just a quick v day useless gift update i believe.

LOL

I LOL beacuse last night in Fel at a chammp spawn in T2A I was killing the cold blood dudes solo.

With nothing more than my Pally Archer in the span of 45 minutes to a hour I received 2 105 power scrolls a 1.0 Item ID a .9 fishing and a .9 taming SoT (My tamer ate that sucker 18 days of taming right there).

Let me let you in a a little secret as to how I got them to drop. I would let a horde of monsters target me I mean upwards of 60 to 70 at a time. I used a manna leaching balanced bow and spammed holy light. Hit points can drop quick so having 120 healing doesn't hurt. Then let her rip. I moved the spawn from level 1 to 3 before I had to quit.
