Salvage Route Trouble?

[Uzor]

I'd be interested in your runs per completed piece rate if you've got the information available to calculate it.

Don't have the exact number of runs, but our first run was 20/02-07. First we went 3 times per week, then 4, then 5, and now 6. I've kept statistics of lots of things, but not total runs =/ I'll tell you though that we've killed a total of 800 NM's, and 107 of those dropped, so perhaps that can give you an idea.


Also, I fail at counting. 1, 3? bah!

Wouldnt that bit a little over 10% maybe aaround 15 or so

[Uzor]

Yes, 13,3% total drop rate.

[Aurara]

Out of curiosity, how many morri/usu/ares bodies have you completed?

[mdkuser]

Out of curiosity, how many morri/usu/ares bodies have you completed?

1 usukane, 2 morrigan, 2 skadi, 0 marduck and 5 ares I believe.

[Aurara]

completed sets? just curious. wanted something to compare to my group

[mdkuser]

5 completed set: 1 skadi 1 usu 2 morrigan 1 ares

[Aurara]

damn, we've been going for 8+ months and still have yet to complete a set one of our members is 14/15 marduk and the 35 legs just wont drop/widows never pop/MB isnt up

You aren't alone in that, we've been going since 31st of October 2007 starting out with 2 runs/week. Now we are doing 3 runs/week with some of them on split runs (because of >11 people attending) and occasionally a 4th run with a couple of people for 35 farming. We've yet to complete a set and have 1 person 14/15 on Morrigan's Set missing Macha's Slops and 1 person 12/15 on Usukane's Set missing 25 head, 15/35 body

We have completed:
0 Ares Body (25 doesn't drop)
2 Morrigan's Body
0 Usukane Body (we started late on including CC in our farming, 0/5 now)
0 Skadi Body (we don't do 4th floor rampart enough)
1 Marduk Body (but that person doesn't have the gil to upgrade yet).

We do try to keep track of our droprates but it only works for some NMs. NMs which pop multiple times or have multiple copies across the zone (Rampart NMs or QQs) only get counted as 1 kill instead of 2 or more kills. Basicly only SSR, Zhaylom and part of Arrapaggo is accurate. Also these stats are only of the runs we do as a group and not the 'unofficial' runs that sometimes happen. Almost all kills are with TH3 applied:

Instead of counting all bees as 1 NM, I include the chance the rampart will pop an NM in my calculation of the final drop rate instead. Same with QQTH's in order to balance it out.

Anyway, don't kill me...
Hammerblow: 5/76
Powderkeg: 5/31
Citadel Chelonian: 1/32
GG1: 2/41
GG3: 6/43
Dekka: 1/44

QQTH: 2/172
QQA: 5/109
Deviant Bhoot: 3/31
Psycheflayer: 4/18
Archaic Chariot: 16/54

5F Poroggo: 12/47
6F Poroggo: 19/36

Gate Widow: 7/11 | 30% chance for rampart to pop at least 1
Skirmish Pephredo: 11/18 | 38% chance for rampart to pop at least 1
Zebra Zachary: 6/21 | 25% chance for rampart to pop at least 1
Peryton: 3/14 | 22% chance for rampart to pop at least 1

I do very much want to kill you for the 5F/6F Frogs since they've yet to drop anything for us. Though we've done 1/2 Citadel Chelonian so I guess that's fine. Do you happen to have stats on how many of those NM popped from ramparts actually dropped loot?

[Amele]

you're 5/31 for powderkeg? damn. haha (we started with SSR, ended up going 1/60 for powderkeg many months after giving up on that initial push and are still waiting for our next drop from him).

Yeah, the first number (7/11 etc.) are how many that dropped. 7 dropped out of 11.

[Gunitsoldier]

That isn't entirely true. The melee vulnerable ones can -easily- be killed before they put the spikes up. It's quite common (esp if it casts an ancient) for us to have to stop attacking for a bit.
