    Khimaira and its wings.

    Hello~

    Here is my question: does any of you experienced a better drop rate on hauteclaire/seveneyes if the wings were up or down?

    Drop rate seems to be shitty either way but maybe someone has some good tests about it. Started to wonder when i saw this on wiki but since its wiki ... cant trust it 100%.

    Yea... gonna say there is no difference in drops between Wings up or down. It's simply a way to get rid of Tourb.

    LOL.

    Worst theory ever. I've killed it numerous times with wings up and noticed no difference. 3/65 on Sword, 12/65 on Club, all three sword drops with wings down, and a majority of the club drops, if not all, with wings down.

    Anyway, added a note on the Wiki.

    It's a ToAU mob. Look at other mobs that have behavior in which you can break a part of it and influence drops (Marid Tusk, Imp's Horn, etc.).

    We're like 10/50 or something on swords, and we always break wings, so w/e

    The wings has nothing to do with drop rate. It's just really crappy drop rates on everything in this game. That's just the way the game was designed. Eventually you will get something to drop with enough kills and enough monthly POL bills paid.

    The only thing that breaking it's wings does is stop it from using Tourbillion, i doubt very much that it effects the drop rate
