Loot Drop Rates??

Oh well, serious topic being derailed.. and a very important information buried... sad

Before this thread jumps a shark, I'd like to ask some clarity moving onward regarding the issue and whether it is identified and resolved - it is serious, and affects nearly everyone.

 

I don't necessarily find the drop rates are bad in terms of legendary or rare, the thing that annoys me its the other end of the spectrum... the trash.
I just came here to make a point... do not be afraid of messing up with the original designs. You do have to remember that the spirit back then was to extract money out of players, a very different one that you have in hands.
You also have to take into account that the sheer amount of quests right now divide the levelling up players so finding coop partners for non end game quests is hard to virtually impossible. Consider eliminating or "retire" original quests.

 

This is a very odd request ...quest variety is great for the game. Doesn't make sense to force everyone into playing a limited number of quests when you can simply decide with your friends which quest line to level up with.

 

Terms of drop rates ain't that bad indeed, what's bad is the rate of X or Y item that apparently "never" drops and are almost non existent or absurdly expensive, the same way celeste items don't drop on the original game quests, old items shouldn't drop on at least I would say certain celeste quests, you may find yourself grinding the hardest quests in the game over and over for little reward, and that's kinda demoralizing and what I believe that leads lot of people to sometimes get frustrated or take breaks from the game for something I believe could be worked on.

 

Yeah going from a personal POV here, I have found very difficult to convince my friends to try this over AoE2. Still new players arrive, amazingly for a fan-supported-almost-10y.o. game, by the day, and I'm betting most of them don't come with friends. And most of them wouldn't be making an informed decision by choosing Argos/Cyprus over any other 20+ content.

 

Good stuffs tbh, appreciate y'all effort and work to improve things for us all, thanks, and tbh, thanks for all the answers and explanations and all Jeinx, appreciated.

 

woooooooow, this is exactly what you wrote, he simply copied and pasted HAHAHAHA

 

It is worth mentioning that while there has been a bug preventing certain items from dropping, that has not affected the overall number of legendary items that have dropped and did, in turn, increase the drop rate of the legs that did drop.

 

Such a thread and I missed it

As I said months ago, just after Lodi has been added , there was a problem with loot table. The response was " It's all good, Moe is based on RNG you just are unlucky" . Now we moved on , and that is a really good news !! Thank again you guys rocks !

 

Still have a question about this : 80% of my legendary loots are composed by

Heavy Spear of Sacrifice
Light Spear of the King
Blessed Food of Athens
Heimdal's Training Sword

That's a solid 30 to 50 spears I have to vendor every 3/4 weeks because I assume this happen to others too so nobody want them. Are all legendary items equal in term of drop chance ? Or is it another bug caused by the "missing items" you just solved ?

 

Does this account for the dearth in Chimera armours noted of late?

 

To clarify, we havn't seen Chimera hide because it was off the loot tables. We will start to see it again, but only from Crete chests?

 

This might be a lot to ask, but would it be possible to post a list, or update https://search.projectceleste.com/ if there are items that are limited to their 'drop location' ?
