  1. #1

    Swift Belt

    1/8 yesterday and I didn't get one.

    Share your horror stories so I feel better and bitch at the CoP team for creating pop NM's that don't drop 100% prz.

    1/1

    Our run did end up 3/7 though. Guess I got lucky

  3. #3

    Last time we went, we had like 4-5 Codex's. However, nobody had enough Fomor hate so we spent over an hour just killing Fomors to get enough hate to pop it. We got 2 on the first 2 kills and then proceeded to kill 4 more with no other drops.

    Then we ran out of Codex's, killed Stegos for over 2 hours and couldn't get any more to drops. We even killed Elel (no lolFrenzySallet) during our downtime. I think the end results was something like 4/11 Belts, most of them dropping from Hume.

    1/3. I bought 3 codexes which I handed off to helpers for myself on my first run, it ended up dropping on the first one. I used the other 2 codexes to see if we could get belts for other people for free I might add, but nothing dropped.

    Total of like 2/7 for the night I think.

    Someone in my LS went 0/11 ; ; The next time it dropped, it was given to him by another nice member. I was 1/1 or 1/2, can't remember.

    ive done a bunch of these runs. we'd tried different things to try to improve drop rate. up until last run, we'd go about 1/3 and sometimes less. this past run, we only had humes and elvaans. 1 hume thf, 1 elvaan thf. a random player would pop it(waiting for thf's hate to totally build would take way too long) but we'd have the hume thf get last hit on the hume pop, and same w/ elvaan thf on elvaan. went 6/9? or 7/10? something like that. i was personally 0/3 or 0/4. judah got drop on his pop and made me take it, but another dropped on the codex i gave him. regardless of all that, the pop conditions/requirements for this nm are way too gay for it not to be 100% drop.

    Used to duo the hume with another bst and sometimes a thf for TH, trying to get belts for people in LS.

    One guy went 1/14
    Another went 1/8
    Another 1/7

    When people mention they want belts, I cringe.

    (And now I kinda want a belt, sigh)

    I think that Curtis has the worst luck with Swift Belt, something like 1/500 bajillion. I would ask him to post the exact number, but I don't want him to relive that nightmare.

    Bought three, none of them dropped, and the one I have farmed is sitting in my /bank because NO ONE NEEDS THE DAMN THING ANYMORE SO NO ONE WANTS TO GO.

    Woe is me...

    1/1 on Swift Belt, 1/1 on accidently getting the Fomor Codex from a Taurus in Phomiuna before really knowing what it was for and then I didn't even have to farm hate to pop it.

    And if you think that's good, a guy in my ls is 1/0 on it.

    So is it safe to say that the only non-MNK onry belts that are better than this are Speed/Sonic belt and lolsash?
