    Don't worry everyone. When enough people start threatening to quit/stop doing Salvage over shitty droprates, SE will patch it so that the drop rate is much higher, like they always do. Then everyone and his dog will be running around with Morrigan and Askar and it will no longer be awesome and rare.

    I give it ehh, a year at least, maybe a little less.
    honestly, if they just bumped the drop rate a few % points (it would amount to doubling probably) we might be able to actually, you know; finish the content.

    which would be sort of the point I would hope. content shouldn't take -years- to finish.

    edit: rare and awesome should be a function of hard the content is, not how bad the drop rate is.

    I didnt mean to imply that they were crying. What I meant to say was that they are the only two members who havent completed a piece yet, whereas everyone else has, with some members having 2 or even 3 done. In fairness, we are attempting to complete them a piece so the wealth is spread.
    Oh I figured, I was just being silly. I imagine it has to be more disheartening for them to want that piece, and see the rest of their group getting pieces that they're told "are rare drops". I'm always paranoid about doing certain zones/bosses when certain people aren't around because I'm saying "Yep, this'll be the time that it drops".

    Pretty accurate. If it drops in SSR, it's usually rare.

    Usu body > Other peices
    Morr legs > Morr body > morr head > morr feet > mor hand
    Skadi body > Skadi hands > Shaki head > Skadi legs > skadi feet
    Ares legs >>>>> Ares hands > ares head > ares feet > ares body
    Marduk feet > marduk body > marduk head > marduk hands > marduk legs

    Not going to turn this into a SSR bitch fest but ya, fuck that zone.

    i have to disagree with your ares list after going 1/5 on GGs (only i wanted them so we havent killed since) and 0/80+ on QQA ;;

    however i dont have ares flanchard yet because BC is cockblocking me by never dropping phobos, so maybe you have a point

I don't have exact stats, but Dekka is almost certainly the winner for biggest number of no-drops for us.
    Just because I posted this, our SSR run yesterday yielded both Marduk feet (completing my set) and Ares legs (to the poor guy who missed them twice due to hurricanes). So...I guess QQ more, it works!

    I would say my 150-200 kills more of data than you on both NMs would align more with my statistics. But hey a sample size of 5 is awesome too right?

    you realize there are people in this shell that have (literally) 10x the kill count that you have, are measuring the QQA drop rate in runs instead of kills so the number remains readily countable and are telling you that anyone who goes less than 1/50 on -anything- in SSR is a lucky fuck, right?

    yeah i guess my groups data isnt really large enough to get an accurate view of drop rates, i mean we have seen as many 35s from ssr as we have from zhayolm, and we have been rotating all zones on a regular schedule so a similar number of runs in each. im just emo because i know ares body is the most common piece, or at least the most completed on my server, and it just doesnt want to drop for us.

    Ares - Askar - Amir, why are all the DD equips starting with A?

    To confuse me, of course.

    I must say your race count into drop rate as well.

    for example if you are JP, turtle just dorp for you ! On bismarck you see endless of JP going around with the usukane body, yet for NA wise you just see Ares's ._.

    rarity wise.. for skadi i need 35 hands D:! Another reason (for my case anyway) is sometime people choose morrigan pants routine then skadi hands (and ofcoz pants never drop) so that kinda lessen the chance we see hands around too.
