I am just wondering if this is true.. when i was grinding at a monster that is higher lvl than by like 1-3, and i would usually make about 100k worth of dq drop from the monster but now that the monster is green, it seems I get drops very less frequent.. so I was just wondering.. does the drop rate drop? when you are higher lvl than the mosnter

    Yes they do! You get pretty good drop rates when fighting mobs two lvls higher or lower than you. But once the mobs name goes green you are considered to be fighting something alot weaker than you, so the reward gets smaller and smaller.

    Keep in mind though, green monsters are generally easier to kill, so you -could- end up killing them faster/getting more drops(over time), and spending less on repairs and potions. Same idea goes with exp too, a mob might give you less but you might kill them faster to make up for it.

    From what I hear.
    Green- 50% less
    Yellow- 25% less
    White- Normal rate
    Red- 50% less.

    It is not a fact but that is just what a lot of people I know said about the rates, could be wrong though.
    I used to do drugs, I still do but I used to too.

    It's a pain in the **** trying to get any mat drops from lower levelled mobs,spent a full hour trying to get concentrated glues and got a big fat 0 >.<

    Same level mobs isn't that much better for mats either though...
