Kraken Club Update

[bercus]

Same here we got 21 stacks with 5 people and we wont start doing this BC until I have enough proof that we have a good chance to get ONE club out of those 34 tries. I have also not heared or seen anything about dropping it.

SE can say a lot.... Iam sure they made a mistake on that.
Cause the droprate on LoO was NOT that bad considering it is now with the BC. This BC has been done maybe... hmm 100+ times on each server for sure since they said it was added... and no drop?
Comeone that is lesser droprate then it used to be. ^^.

They never said the drop rate would be the same, they meant the droprate PER 2 weeks would be the same. So after people have spammed a BC for 2 weeks, then maybe we'll see one. Look at the PCC? Its drop is much worse than Argus's used to be...so obviously they have to lower it on something people can just spam.

Well there are more PC per 100 people now then there would have been with Argus. Also the droprate on the LoO BC is also lower then PC since you need 60 Seals and PC you need 40 Seals. Means people can attempt LoO lesser then PC .

After people spammed the BC people wont have any more Seals like in the past happened with KS30 shit. So it would be normal to see at least 1 KC drop on each server already now with knowing a lot of people tried this BC now or spammed it.

PC dropped early. KC should have dropped already as well, especially when people dont have that many Seals anymore since most people spammed BC40 for PC. Considering b4 the droprate was at like 2-3KC/month it should drop once within 100 BCs when you do a vague math.

Our LS did 6-7 runs (had a couple groups going, so I lost count of total runs) tonight with no drops. Our best success with set-up was NIN RDM PUP. Having the automaton to heal the PUP and do some extra damage helped quite a bit. I think our other group also did well with NIN BLM SMN.

A dozen or so other people were also doing the BCNM and none of their groups got clubs that we know of either.

[Xrave]

has anyone seen it drop from the bcnm ?

I just checked a few forums, and theres nothing of the sort.

A LS member got the drop earlier this evening. Not sure on how many attempts they had, but it was less than 10.

Known issues :

D/C Icon
Khimaera is bugged (sometimes doesnt TP)
Light Shot from corsair gives you the following message :

"<Corsair> uses Shadowbind
The <monster> is asleep"

not sure on other issues.

[Akiyama]

Couldnt they just do an area maintenance for the NM?

[aers]

Yeah, and they should be able to fix issues like light shot with just a simple .dat patch, so.

Wafik started the offtopic.... DAMN YOU .

[Rocl]

I thought I heard the D/C icon was an intentional graphic change.

Was probably just a rumour though.

[And if I'm wrong, sue Shiz he's the one who told me]

[Charitwo]

I never saw a change in the graphic for d/c, other people did, it still appeared normal to me.

This is what I've been seeing on all people since maintainence, probally one of the issues for emergency maintainence like wafik said.

The regular red DC icon shows up in the search results list now too if they are DC'ing :S

Well, currently 0/9, very easy bc to beat(Blm x 3, go!)...just sucks no gil drops whatsoever As far as drops, I have seen a couple of shouts to sell KC in Whitegate last night, so possible someone has gotten lucky on this bc (though they are not confirming how they got them). This bc was the reason for leveling Beastmaster, still have 3 more stacks to go, lol

Or people are trying to unload them before the (lol) market bombs on 'em.


I chucked 1500 seals about 2 weeks ago for inventory space (75bst = swimming in seals) ... kicking myself in the ass somewhat.. have a KC but like everyone else curious to the drop % on this BC.

Yeah, my BST just hit level 40 last week, took a break due to work but going all the way to 75.. <3 the seals

Personally I've gotten 3 drops from Lord of Onzozo and I still have 2 of the clubs so this update kinda got me;; But oh well, hopefully it stays Rare, like it should be.

My current droprate on LoO is 2.09% so I'd assume BC is about the same.

It's always been that way. It's just that search results arn't always up to date.

Thats been there for quite some time.

My current droprate on LoO is 2.09% so I'd assume BC is about the same.

If based on your assumtion, we'd be seeing atleast 1 maybe 2 KCs per server by now.

Its either a horridly low % alla RO style (.01 and .001), a controlled daily/weekly drop or a drop per set amount.

People are saying they get a Kraken once every two weeks from LoO, thats pretty good. So.. 1 KC per 14 kills?

With this BCNM people have done it over 100 times and havent seen one drop yet. Im sure SE realized that this mob would be killed 10x as much and made some sort of adjustment.
