Been doing quite a bit of TTs to get enough cash for my lunar cape, and i noticed a significant decrease on drops, specifically today we ran 3 different 1-3 and we got:

1st run:
-2 chin's plate
-4 war drum (this was nice)
-1 soulgatherer's mirror
-1 serpent blood
-0 tough shards of golden armor
-9 mirages

2nd run
-3 chin's plate
-1 war drum
-0 soulgatherer's mirror
-1 serpent blood
-0 tough shards of golden armor
-12 mirages

3rd run
-2 chin's plate
-0 war drum
-0 soulgatherer's mirror
-1 serpent blood
-0 tough shards of golden armor
-8 mirages

Are drops supposed to be this RIDICULOUSLY LOW? try and split 3 mats among a 5 men squad! TT drops had been low so far, but it seems like TT was further nerfed on this maint, come on!

    Did you Oracle your level? b:surrender

    That drop rate looks about right...

    thats just bad luck
    the max amount of mats you can get per boss is 6. so that would make 3 the average mats you can get from a boss.(not talking about double/triple green mat bosses btw)
    Thanks Chillum for the nice Sig.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]

    No, no no. The new standard is if you're not getting 1 gold every 2 runs, there's a problem.

    ---

    On a serious note, I wouldn't say it was nerfed just from 3 runs, especially since the first one was quite lucrative.

    Actually that looks below normal. Sometimes you just get a string of bad runs together though.

    Not for any 1-3 I have ever been on....You are right though in that you can have horrible runs consecutively.

    Really? I almost always get 5-8 of the good mats (blood, shard, mirror, drum)... only a few times have I gotten less than 5, and on some very good runs I've come out with 12 or more. I'm talking normal drop rate, not 2x either.

    Yeah...maybe that is why I was never a fan of 1-3.

    Yes, that was your unlucky run. The 4 war drums were pretty nice, actually normal for any type of run. I don't think its been nerfed, but I do think that people have been spoiled by 2x to not even remember what TT was like before. You were supposed to literally live in that place to get one piece of your gear, and hope for the other, when I first placed b:victory

    But, don't worry. Maintain patience.

    Wait, what? I've run countless 1-x and 2-x, and 1 gold every two runs is WAY off.

    Edit: Woops, looks like you're killing every boss, which we never did. Even so, we would only skip 1 in 1-3 and the last two in 2-3.

    i solo 1-1 1-2 and 1-3 almost every day, and i gota say that looks about right, ill get a few runs with 1-4 mats and then the occasional one where i get 10+ mats, hell to test drop rate i did a 1-1 over and over for 30 times in a row 1 day, i had about 26 drums and 69 edges, yea most of the runs drops 0 drums or droped 2-5, as for edges i think i got 1-5 of em every run got kinda anoying having to craft almost 14 TT weapons to sell.

    No i did not oracle my level

    Yes i have run SEVERAL TTs without 2x drops on, however we got at least 1 green mat for each person, and a boss droping no green mats at all 3 times in a row cannot be normal

    Yes i know 2x drops is not on, and yes i know you need to live in TT to get a piece of equip, however these drops are WAY below average, not even a green mat for each person cannot be right

    umm man, you really should do TT more often, ive gotten a 4 man squad me sonh/wolven/dark_thorn and did 2-2 over and over so we could each get 5 dust of stars.... well lets say we gave up after the 6th run, 4 of the 6 runs gave 0 dusts 1 gave 3 and the other gave 1. and as for my above testing in 1-1 i had 10 runs in a row and only got 1 drum, so its possible you just had bad luck with the rng *random number generator* its what calculates what items drop and how many

    P.S on one day i did 1-1 3 times cuz thats all the time i had and got 3-5 drums per run xD, so that goes to show the rng is what makes it or brakes it sou gota rely on luck

    You're right, it's very hard to split those mots evenly..

    Which is why my squads don't. We give ALL mats to one person, who then sells them all for coins, which is split evenly.

    But yeah, it seems normal to me. Some days are better than others, some days are worse. *shrugs*

    That sounds about right. Wurlord, in my experience, drops 1-4 generally.
