I didn't hit the anti-farm code. I beat it down with a stick... and now the monsters adjacent to the bosses aren't dropping anything whatsoever

Some bosses are simply reluctant to drop their green. I farmed Chidehkir for well over an hour, and lost count of the runs. Got two Chor's Axes out of it, and then, finally, Chidehkir dropped its wand, so I was on my way to the next boss on the list. Persistence pays off.

Let's say that normally 1% of the players find a green every day...
(not sure on actual figure, just chose 1 for real easy math).

3x only would mean that now, 3% will find a green every day.

That still means 97% won't find anything.

Whatever the actual percentage, we know it is low. 3x that number is still going to leave most of us out. Don't expect results you can even notice on a figure that low.

Well going through 6 man farm at arkjok ward and marga coast. Saw 6 green out of 14 bosses. But looks like my luck already gone with chest drop so no green for me today. some req 9 max item with nice mod . Made a few 10 platinums.Incuding superior vigor.
Ps. I got a massage "You have been playing for 6 hours please take a break" may be they can covince me to break at 3 if they say you wont get any green today

I'm having some good luck during this event and I've been getting greens on every first or second run with two henchmen/two heroes @_@ Originally, I was farming them to get greens for Paragon now I'm just doing it for fun. Maybe give something for my heroes.

So far it's:
Luluh's Spear
Shagu's Anthem
Wandalz's Refuge
Tureksin's Spear
(for my Paragon)
Chidehkir's Deliverance (Dunkoro)
Chiossen's Wind (Tahlkora)
Chor's Axe (Koss)
Lunto's Pincers (Zenmai)
Terob's Wand (Olias)
Shak-Jarin's Sword (Koss on another char)
Grabthar's Hammer (for my Warrior)
Riseh's Wand (didn't mean to get this one intentionally)

Never had this happen before at the last 3x Green drop event, nothing dropped >_>

50 runs on Dabineh Deathbringer and counting. Best result so far: a few blue non-max scythes and spears.

/sigh

it's kinda funny seeing people post that their 50 consecutive runs did not net a green. did you know 50 consecutive runs = you had anti farm kick in 30-40 runs ago?

Well, what else are you supposed to do when there's only one green you want? The anti-farm message never displayed, and I finally got mine just now after about 70 runs... was still getting other stuff along the way too (few purples, couple golds, and 2 dyes, etc.).

I can finally relax. lol

Zomg!

Hysteria!
Get over yourself, immediately.

No green on duo farming. Killed 19 times bosses. (Marga coast/Arjok ward).
But an unsuspecting rain of goldies (8 golds on all the runs). Whatever...

Funny thing is I had more green drops before this weekend event, which I haven’t had any drop so far.
