Drop Rate on Gravitar Alert

Has anyone a more less accurate idea how likely it is that Gravitar drops a piece of her clothing? I mean, of course there are usually a lot of people who want her stuff - that's why many of us fight Gravitar in the first place, screw justice and questionite, give me the rags - so I guess most of the times it gets torn apart in the struggle afterwards.


On the market the gloves and boots are relatively cheap, around 70 globals. And since they are easier to integrate into an existing costume, especially if you don't want your character to end up half naked, I guess the demand is no lower than for the chest piece and the jewelry. Thus I guess they drop more often than the central pieces, but I haven't even seen one of those dropping yet.

So how often does a chest piece drop? One time out of a hundred runs? One time out of thousand? Once a day, no matter how many runs there are? Once every two days? Does it drop only for characters who have been secretly marked by the devs for having a particularly good looking outfit within the current community fashion?

    I have done about 50 Gravitar runs and never gotten are seen someone else get any special drop.

    The rates are pretty low.

    I think like, the first month that I did Gravitar, I ended up with the pumps and some other piece and then finally the chest piece. The rest I think I bought. And then just like last week I got the pumps again.

    A lot of the parts are pretty cheap on auction.

    I don't remember how often I played during that month though. Maybe a few throws a night.

    It's able for me to calculate.
    I have 6 toons able to fight Gravitar and did at least 6 run every day.
    It came up since 06222012 so I probably did more then 2000 run. xD

    The first month it was like 5~10% drop rate and now like 1%.
    I remember I had to do more then 300 GraviRun to complete all costumes.
    Chest piece is the most rare and Necklace the next. Pumps and Gloves drops more often.

    Anyway, good game tonight! :D

    Well, as for the prices on the auction exchange:

    The price for globes and pumps dropped last day to 30 and 34 G resources, respectively. While I haven't seem them drop it can't be that horribly rare. (Of course I already have those from the market.)

    The jewellery is currently not available. I've seen it for 900 G resources a few days ago.

    And someone posted the the body piece for 4000 G resources, but that the only one instance I've seen recently (I hope he chokes in his 200 globals broker fee). Curiously I think last week there were offers for actually sane, between 100 and 200 G resources, but I am not quite sure.

    Chest piece is still rare and able to sell about more then 1500~G. Some very kind ppl sell it in reasonable price. :3

    Try buying her dinner first. :wink:

    I've gotten quite a few drops from her. Maybe one in 15 runs or so if I has to guess.

    That would be an interesting sight.

    The Marksmaid:
    In many ways the Marksmaid is very alike Gravitar. She's shallow, she judges people by their appearance, she's a narcissist. If the Marksmaid and Gravitar were trying it peaceful for once in the Club Caprice VIP lounge they'd verbally scratch each other's eyes out anyway, trading more or less veiled pieces impudence, with pointy lips. They might very well end up clawing each other's eyes out, in which case the Marksmaid would inevitably pull the shortest straw. There is no way she can solo Gravitar, being a squishy damage dealer, whose only way to get some health returned is to defeat enemies.

    Dawnblaze:
    Dawnblaze wouldn't bother to put up with Gravitar. From Dawnblaze's perspective (the most mature of my characters) Gravitar is but a little girl.

    Tenebris:
    She's the ultimate good one. Despite driving goodness to excess, she's still pretty smart and has a has remarkable insight into human psyche. Tenebris would try to get into Gravitar's mind, try to understand what drives her and heal the wounds that drive her to hurt people. She would naturally try to teach Gravitar that true beauty runs deep. I don't think that Gravitar would find Tenebris particularly interesting or worth of her attention; then again Tenebris is a nymph and has an attracting aura Gravitar couldn't possibly dream of, even though Tenebris hardly cares about fashion at all. She is a master of silent promises, and while I don't picture Gravitar as being gay, she might be interested in secrets of nymphs.

    Virtue:
    Gravitar is not unlike many of Virtue's succubus sisters, but even before Virtue has fallen from evil she was never like Gravitar. She always was a wild one, with a comparably raw approach to attraction. She doesn't care about fashion, because she doesn't like wearing clothes at all. That's just a compromise she makes for living in a human world. Gravitar's insults would pearl off her, because to be insulted would require her to have a sense of shame. Virtue does like to play games. She might invite Gravitar into her lair beneath Millennium City, I just don't see why Gravitar would take her on that offer. As a demoness, Virtue is good at playing human desires though... if she found something that Gravitar truly desires she'd play her just for the fun of it.
