if this is how encounters work in mod 4 my god its going to be brutal to gear up or do anything classes like DC and GF have no hope of getting the drops at all
you are making your own game unfun by haveing the drop rates be so so low for these encounter
i get there should be a grind curve but this is to much.
people play games to relax and enjoy aspects of it not to sit in an area all day farming and running between dwarf valley and caer-koning just to hope for a beholder pop.
sure i get that the sets are not best in slot for some classes but that doesnt mean the value of haveing them isnt there
i currently have more black ice than i know what to do with because tymora deemed every neverwinterian unworthy to get their mainhand and gloves
why would i use my black ice to make parts of a set i can never get the bonus for, and im not the only one with these problems. i truly hope you notice all this feedback because there are numerous threads about this.
now is the time to up the drop rate make the encounters spawn like every 10 mins or heck just make the item available in the vendor with the rest.
please and i hope the community agrees please fix this unfun aspect of the game.

At least it seems that you can /lfg for the HEs and switch instances immediately, which would be a great + in comparison to IWD, but overall this sucks plain and simple. Thank god you only have to grind for the two armor pieces in Rothe Valley and Whispering Caverns (rest can also be acquired through the new dungeons/skirmish), but on top of the BI gear, which I haven't completed on most chars, it's a pain.
I would love to hear from an official source what the downside of a token based system would be, also for the IWD HEs.
Overpowered 60 CW ~ Thaumaturge 14.5k
==========================================
~ GF Buffs were great we are much better, please fix the bugs now... Thank you!
- Dualspec
- Better rewarding foundry and foundry pvp maps
- Custom PvP leagues with leaderboards instead of the current 'matchmaking'.
- Armory
- make jumping cost stamina (to reduce hopping in pvp)
That's the beauty of RNG. Some players get theirs asap while others wait for months (literally). A token based system would take the randomness away.
I am still lacking the gloves too, after hundreds of HE. I love this game, really. As is love D&D and the forgotten realms. I have read every realms novel there and i am really passionate about the setting and thus the game. BUT i am on the verge of loosing my nerve to continue to play it.
All the new and seemingly greedy politics of BoA or BoP, the lowering of rates to drop worthy items (so that we maybe buy them faster), the hopelessness some of us face while doing more and more HE without a great success and so without a proper reward. MAny are really tired of this exceptionell grinding.
So please please please dear devs, find a solution for it, or you will push the many veterean players away.
most players that got their drops got them before the first patch when IWD came out, now many moons later it's near impossible to get these to drop.
Very true. Pre-patch Mod 3 at least dropped useful stuff. Now, you have to be like Job - full of patience. I really hope that after Mod 4 comes out, the Devs have time to take a breather and revisit the main/gloves drop rate. It all began with the "fix" to the video lag issues on larger HEs.
...the Elk Tribe Orb.
Which is BoP.
This, frankly, made me mad enough to club a baby seal with a sackful of kittens. It's not enough that you have to be lucky enough to catch a good HE, and lucky enough for it not to be so swarmed that no one can score enough to qualify for an epic reward, and lucky enough to actually get the epic reward. The epic reward table is full of garbage you can't use, sell or even give to one of your alts. This is just a cruel joke.
Oh, and minutes later I got a peridot for a levelup reward. Where's that sack....
I really want my black ice gear... just like I want my miracle healer and high viser when both of my toons hit level 60. It took me less than two weeks' fun dungeon runs to get the T2 sets. In the process, I learned to master my classes better. HEs on the other hand, do not require much skills or collaboration between players. It's just brutally zerg things down and adds the terribly low rng of getting a gear on top of a horrible spawn rate.... So when doing HEs, I learn nothing and gain almost nothing too... I'm not asking to restore the drop rate to before patching but at least give us some hope of ever getting the drop... over 150 epic and major HEs with a considerable amount of great success and not a single glove or main hand....
or can we at least get these items to be BOE so players who have spent months trying to get them and still havent could possibly buy them off the AH or other players
