Does having a high level in squad affect the chance of a boss dropping items? (am talking about FB and BH bosses.)

    In a few more words, the drop rate is based on two things: the highest level member of your party and the level of the mob(s) killed. If the boss is level [?] then it's effectively level 150, so level won't affect its drops. However, if the highest level in the party is 3 or more levels higher than the mob(s) then the drop rate will decrease as shown on the PWDB "How drop rate is calculated" page.

    So, lowbie squads are usually more likely to get drops than one with higher level members, even though it's more difficult, which seems a fair trade-off to me.
