Why are the drop rates for level 600 weapons so low?
Why are the drop rates for level 600 weapons so low?
so we continue to grind and play :) It's fun to have a challenge. If we had everything in the game, we would get bored and play less.
I'm pretty happy with the drop rate on 600 weapons. There seems to be a good amount of them floating around, even 4x ones.
Hmm I am not sure what game y'all are playing. The ones that are on channel are 6-10 mil for the ones people don't use and 20+ mil for the ones people do (like 2h Sword or Axe). The price alone indicates that there are NOT a good amount of them.
Also, take a look at the leaderboards, notice anything? Oh yeah the fact there are almost full up mages and not even a dozen of the other classes. Why is that, you think? Because the "power" of the other classes is gated behind weapon damage. Lack of available weapons means that the power curve and "fun factor" of the other calsses is gated. Why bother with scraping by with an under powered Warrior or Adventurer when you can own the game with a group of 4+ Wizzys?
We need more lvl 600 weapons. (not more mage weapons)
Or tie the base damage of spells to the mage's weapon like everyone else.
They need to balance all the loot drops. I can never find fam. gear. "Hunt in low lvl dungeons". Ok running WA like 50 times; 1 fam piece and 7 pro pieces. I shouldnt be finding that many pro gears so early on its pointless. I have never found a lvl1 weapon. Some 300 weapons drop way to much and yes 600 are rare and mostly drop in heroics. Which is a way to get people to go Noble. But its still too rare in the heroics as well.
I was able to buy a 4x Purge for 4.5m and 5x WN for 3.5m in the last week, that's under a quarter of what you said. It's possible we play during different hours with a different market however.
