    Drop Rates

    Is it just me or are drop rates crap is the past. I'm 1/84 on lynx hide and 0/34 on gnole claw. You would think items used in quests would have a decent drop rate but I been here for 2 hours killings Gnoles just so I can continue the missions. Am I just having bad luck or are drop rates this bad for everyone?

    Re: Drop Rates

    Kill War Lynx-s. They seem to have better drop rates. I imagine there are War Gnomes somewhere, but I certainly never found them.

    Currently I'm out harvesting trying to get myself some freaking Fresh Marjoram for my first windy mission. >.<

    went 2/5 on gnole claws on the gnole in south jugner by the Maw with TH2.

    Edit: They check EM-T at 75, so bring help if you need it.

    0/20ish on Gnoles in Batallia....0/1 so far on Decrepit Gnole in jugner. Haven't seen a Smilodon hide drop in over 40 tigers.

    I went 6 for about 80 on Smilodon Hides in the northeast section of Vunkerl Inlet. Long stretches with literally zero drops, and twice went back-to-back.

    Well, the CoP team did make this expansion, right? And we know how CoP drop rates are.

    I just hope that they don't do the same thing as CoP did with pop NM drop rates. Swift Belt in particular comes to mind.

    Doesn't seem too different from CoP yet, except perhaps minus the mission/storyline aspect.

    Re: Drop Rates

    1/1 on Gnole Claw on the Decrepit Gnoles right near the Maw, but none on the same named Gnoles further away. *shrug*, but 1/2 now so far (killed a second one, since we need a second).

    Re: Drop Rates

    Yeah... SE really seem to not want anyone to farm any money out of the expansion. Low drop rates on most things, especially those that are easily soloable. Also no NMs outside of the Campaign NMs (which drop nothing).

    Re: Drop Rates

    2/200 or so on Lynx Hides in Sauromugue.

    1/50 or so on Smilodon Hides.

    1/30 on Lyco flowers.

    0/varies on Toads, Raffs, Slugs, Yags, Gobs.

    First Goobue I killed dropped a Tree Cutting, aggroed me, thought that was a nice surprise, never seen one since.
