Is there any way to find weapon drop rates? I was in FB19, killing the the boss over 20 times, and got nothing but coins. Any hint on mold drop rates :x?b:surrenderb:question

    Check out PWDatabase and type in the name of the mold you're trying to get to see the mob(s) that drop it and the chance rate.

    Make sure you're looking at PWI bosses and not PW-MY or something.

    Drop rates are affected by your level compared to the monster's level. If your level is more than 2 lvls above the monster's, then drop rate is reduced, up to a difference of 40 levels.

    Hmm.. but what Drop rate should i go by? "Default drop rate" or "Real drop rate" and what would it be if my lvl is 61, the boss is 23, and the default drop rate is 0.6199%, (real drop rate is 17.0182%)

    I'm not entirely sure how the drop rate calculation works, but if you are more than 20 lvls higher than the boss, it is most likely it will not drop something good.

    That's a pretty rare mold drop. I've seen maybe a half dozen drop in 200-300 or more runs? Your best bet is to keep an eye on the AH and just buy it.
    I post in forums. This one and others. That's why I post.

    Go to http://www.pwdatabase.com/pwi/drop and look for the bracket you fall in. Since the difference is 38 levels, that's the 30-level difference bracket, which in turn results in a drop rate reduction to 25% (under probability of getting items). Then, multiply real drop rate by the chance of getting items to find the actual chance of getting that specific item to drop. In your case, 0.0425455, or a bit over 4% chance.
