Good drops still happen, it depends on what you are doing.

I've been farming Slaver's Exile, 26 Duncan Kills, 3 Voltalic Spears (R10,R10,R11 worth 300K+185ecto) and Bow or the Hierophant (100K+ecto).

Find a productive area and farm for awhile.

Still, it's all luck. I've done Duncan in HM 17 times - no voltaic spear, no bow of hierophant, no shield of hierophant....

Out of 1400 hours played the only lucky drop i got was when i was a n00b and found a gold axe, which i thought was pretty shit. Sold it to a guy for 5k i was pleased and he posted a big smiley. Later i realised it had a perfect furiouse axe mod and, back in the good ole days they were worth a lot more than 5k

Most drops go to people who don't visit forums

Ettin farming for runes backin the day was a good way to boost the bank balance. Sup Fire before the AoE nerf was always 20-30k at the merchant.

I've always had horrid drop luck, only time this was somewhat changed is when I got like 7 ecto in an UW clear with some SMS people. (Mesmer stole their drops! =P) But mainly I cant get a good drop to save my life.

About 2500 hours in 30 something months, never gotten a sup vigor or had anything sell over 50k that wasnt a mini pet. ( Sold a mini aatxe from one of my second year gifts. )

26 months, over 3500 hrs and my best drops have been a Dead Sword (when it was worth something more than nuts), a couple of Colossals and an Elemental Sword about a week ago

I have no problems with good drops 90% of the time. I feel sorry for most of you guys sounds like I've given away better things than some of you have gotten. Guess thats the way the ball bounces, but unfortuantely its true do the time to get the fine things.

My best friend is like that. Granted, she doesn't play often, but when she does she rarely gets the dyes, greens, or golds. I used about 40 lunar tokens before getting a rat, then sat and watched her use up several stacks and only get fireworks.

It's gotten so bad she's pretty much quit the game. :-\

Well lets see, 34 or some months playing with 2500 hours or something I never got a drop that was worth more than 20k. The first sup vigor rune i got was after the loot scale and they droped to like 17k.

LOL forgot how bad it was on tokens for me. Thats about the only thing i have horrid luck on.

Luck is all there is to it.

Getting a Victo's shield when crazy people bought them for 100K+xx ecto's on my first run for instance is luck, pure and simple. I sold it right away, ofcourse and the one I have now I bought for 10K when the prices collapsed later.

Occasionally I get a really nice drop, enough to keep the finances healthy but never anything godly like a crystalline, godly as in worth 100K+xxx ecto's.
Never got a really good minipet either, I usually end up with the white ones while my wife gets the good ones

Its all luck and yeah, the more you play the better your chances ofcourse.
