I do not see 2x drops anywhere. When I kill 10 mobs 3 levels over my head and only get 4 coins and 1 DQ item, it is not 2x !!!

    Without the 2x you would have less.

    I recognize the 2x drops a lot. The mobs in BH59 drop now items as hell. One mob drops even sometimes more then 10 items.

    Do you have anything better to QQ about?

    Felt like 3 times drops to me the other day. I was getting DQ and equipment drops left and right. Once in a while a mob would drop 4 items alone.

    That really motivates you to keep grinding, when you constantly see your bag filling up and getting now, somewhat noticable XP. I really love double drops. I wish whoever had control of the 2x button would just make it a permanent feature in game.

    Maybe you should kill more than 10 mobs before making a accessment.

    2x drop isn't exactly guaranteed because it's still a percentage chance. Simple because DQ and item drops from a mob is a percentage chance. If that mob is supposed to drop a DQ, then it has a chance to be a 2x drop.

    And like everyone before me had stated, next time it would be better to kill more than 10 mobs before you judge that the event and say it's not giving you the 2x you "deserve".
    I call it how I see it.

    Yes. 2x drops in on.


    I can very earnestly say that because I was grinding on lvl 86 mobs yesterday, and each mob was dropping DQ, coin, and items like it was a christmas party. I ended up making 450k from all the DQ, coin, and item drops when i had to go to an NPC to clear out my bag for some space XD (and i got 64 slots of inventory space, too!!!)

    Which mobs and how many of them you killed at once? I always thought it's a bad idea to kill so much higher level mobs.

    I kill several hundreds of mobs and make several few 100ks, this is barely worth it. When the 2x event is over I'll be royally pissed especially because of the DQ nerf. b:angry

    Judging from how my cashflow looks like, and i'm grinding all the time at the moment, this game will be completely screwed once the 2x event is over.
    Probably not gonna bother with it anymore then, but I'm waiting for the promised compensation fix Franky talked about.
    I'll not hold my breath tho. If it's gonna stay this way when the event ends, I'll probably go back to the game-we-dont-wanna-name-here with 3 letters.

    I'm not your typical Asia grinder player. I wanted to play Venomancer in Perfect World, not Stock Exchange Broker in Perfect World Tycoon.

    Bloodspray mist....or something like that. It was a lvl 86 monster near the lvl 71 spirit culti for some mage/phys mob.

    I killed between 4-5 at a time, thnx to AoE skills and HP Charm. Total kill number was somewhere around 1000, mainly because i used their exp to get me the last 20% i needed to lvl from 71 to 72

    Definetly works for me. Farming FB59 unwined with a few guildies. Got 23 rep item drops alone in just 1 run and that was just me my guildies had some as well. I didn't even do the full run, had a powercut just before we would have killed the 4th boss. Since this started I farmed well over 2000 rep already in there.

    How embarrassing... "omgz I keeled 10 mobs and it only gave me 4 coins and a DQ item QQQQ" Seriously, how in the world you get 4 coins out of 10 mobs? Did you even pick up coins at least or left them on the ground? And I grind 40 times more mobs than you, and not have a problem even with 1x b:bye
