    Can't say I found time to grind in the last days between caves but we got plently of drops in TT.
    Speaking of mobs, we killed 2 mobs and had like 10 drops. Also I heard from my gf that she does very well grinding DQ items o.o

    I definitely noticed my drops going from about 1 in a minute to 2 in a minute on average. Counting about 200-300 drops so far grinding on Basilisks in Sandsong.

    And yes, 2x does indeed double the quantity of drops you get. However, it does this by doubling the amount of rolls each mob does, not by changing any of the probabilities.

    Oh and for the record, yes I've seen 4-6 drops from mobs during the 2x.

    If you see b:cute be sure to take a second, calm look at anything I said.

    Grinding spiders with my archer, the most I get from the mobs is 4 drops (but three is a lot more common). However, grinding spiders before this 2x, the most I got was 2 drops, and generally only one or none. So to me it seems obvious that it is working properly. I have actually more than doubled the amount of DQs I usually get in an hour of grinding.

    not possible without hax, better be careful what you say. REG mobs have no chance to drop beyond 3 normaly and 6 during dbl drops

    Before you say people hax their way on drops, maybe check yourself more..

    I have no problem at all with 2x drops, cause I grind monsters around my level. Do you ?

    Drop rate is influence by the level difference as well.

    I grind mobs in oht map 2, and yeah I saw them drop 4+ items, I make 650-750k profit in there in 2 hours and about 10-12k DQ points vendoring all the DQ items.

    2x works perfectly fine
    Proud supporter of the new expansion. Sure it has it's share of bugs, like any games. But for a pure farmer/grinder, that's a whole lot of new mobs to go beat up b:chuckle

    I can get 10k worth of points on the DQ Rewards page in an hour, level 96 archer on level 96 spiders.

    As for the additional drop table... from the grinding I've done, I have seen two additional items drop from spiders. I've seen them drop 3 glaze, or a crappy wrist, glaze, and DQ. However, since I spend my time playing the game and not looking at the drop table, I can't tell if these Items are on the first or additional drop table, so look it up for yourself.

    I love it when two die next to eachother and both drop 6 DQ items each. b:surrender

    b:chuckle Exactly, i kill 8~16 of my favourite mobs in 20~40 seconds. Once i am done, i pick up my drops. In one hour i get 65~95 dq items. Some times mobs drop 3 dq items at once, other times i get 1k+ coins, but do i worry about such things as called probability in pwi, nopes. If there is a chance that something will not happen, the probability in pwi is close to 1 for that, i am just thankful for what i get.

    You shouldn't have been cleaning your bow when it was loaded.
