Drop rate tweak

Discussion in 'Ideas + Feature Requests' started by Azrael_Zahgurim, Mar 2, 2014.

  1. Ive noticed a moderately high number of eq drops going to barely actives in epics. Have brackets of activity.
    Example for say a 12 hour epic battle:
    1-50 actions=1% chance for drop
    51-150=2% chance for drop
    151-300=3% chance for drop
    301-500=4% chance for drop
    501+ =5% chance for drop.

    Obviously this would be just an example and allow anyone to still have a chance to get drops.

    Another possibility is increase chance for drops per action by a fraction of a %

    Both would encourageactivity and reward higher activity better than the one bar wonders who vanish after an unload. Any suggestions or feedback?
     
  2. Nice idea, i support this.
     
  3. Ok I think this is already implemented?
    The more attacks you have, the better chances you have?
    If I'm wrong, then support.
     
  4. No support
     
  5. Any reason d3adserenity? Feedback is welcome.
     
  6. Nice idea, support.
     
  7. Already ******* implemented. God damn.
     
  8. Really then how are under 200 actions getting more drops then 500+ on average?
     
  9. Thats a coincidence ^ its already implemented :)
     
  10. Then why do we have most drops seeming yo go to low action counts more than high action counts? Ive talked to a number of eq hunters many see the same trend.. and looking through a number of non unlock plunder lists reinforces its full random
     
  11. Look at my clans eb history, the people.with most hits/ plunder get the most drops
     
  12. **** never mind didnt realise i changed clan, dunno about this one
    Look at 'rider.s of rohan'
     
  13. No it isn't already implemented

    Each attack has a % chance not a % chance increase for more actions

    Eg. A guy who has 1000 actions in an eb does not have more chance than a guy who does 100

    Why you ask? It's because each individual attack has a % chance that doesnt increase or decrease due to successful actions.

    You may think I'm wrong but it's true
     
  14. Ive looked through numorous clans ranging from reck to smoke signals and see countless drops near bottom of plunder list. Watched 5 actions get hooves and all 3 banners off a reck while 5 people over 500 didnt get one all 5 needed at least one. Second from last tvd in home clan had 3 cloaks drop 22 actions and 66 actions smoke signals ive seen a number of people under 200 actions get scrolls while a handful got scrolls over 200. Acc gs ds fod nq i could go on through the lists
     
  15. This is already implemented.

    However it is all percentage based. On this account I'm proud to say I got my FOD sword, known to be hard to get, on my first fod with 1 hit...

    All percentages!
     
  16. Answer: get more EE and you get more drops.
     
  17. I've noticed that on CTT. Like you max xtals 20 times and get no drop, then you look back on those and see people with 40-60 actions with the damn drop.
     
  18. Im sure aqua and inferno on hte is hit based though?
    Thats what it looks like anyway
     
  19. No

    Someone who does 10 actions basically has the same chance as someone who does 100 actions

    Each action is % not the amount if actions you do
