Default Increase 'Polymock piece' drop rate and add them to all campaigns!

I think Anet should increase the drop rate of polymock pieces and/or make them drop throughout all the campaigns.

The reasons...

1) I am yet to see a polymock piece drop so the rate must be very low.

2) Polymock itself isnt fun for everyone, and some find it hard. One solution is to buy purple or gold pieces, but no on sells them or they never drop.

3) This goes for number 2. There is absolutely no market ingame for polymock pieces. There is demand, but no sale. I spent an entire day, in different cities and campaigns asking to buy one and no one replied.

People arent selling them because they are too rare and they use them themselves, or presumably give them to other characters or they sell very fast.

To fix this we need a much more frequent drop rate and it would help if they dropped in all campaigns to help increase the availabiliity of them. Obviously whites would drop more, purple's less and golds even less frequent.

But they should drop more frequent generally then they are.

Even if you do find one for sale, they are stupidly high price because of their rarity. This means those who find polymock hard and are poor cant buy purple or gold pieces to make it easier.

It would help drive prices down to more realistic levels.

Why all campaigns? Someone who doesn't have GW:EN will have no use for them except to sell.

Oh, no. All campaigns not. We don't want a Green Mallyx polymock piece, do we?

Polymock is pretty craptacular as it is. So... any sort of improvement would be nice.

I hate Polymock, and I hate trade spamming even more. I don't want polymock pieces to drop in place of something I want and could use!

Polymock is annoying and pointless (yes, even the summon skill rewards). Higher chance of getting gold pieces won't change that. I'll /sign any improvement to the actual game, though, but this is far from an improvement.

I wouldnt mind a slightly higher Polymock piece drop rate. I have never seen one drop - for me or for anyone. That said, the base problem I agree is Polymock itself.

I didnt mean add new polymock pieces, I meant just have the existing ones drop in all campaigns. Just to create a market for them. Im yet to see one drop in GWEN and something needs improved al round.

yup they do - just ppl don't want to pay much for em so the sellers don't ever try to sell em.

Polymock is irritating and boring, but if you commit yourself it is doable (Quests anyway) without having to buy a super piece. It bugs me to death but i just sat down and tried and tried and did all the quests that go with it with only the pieces given as reward

I'd rather have an Onxy or Ruby than a piece drop as then i'd have to walk round all the ports spamming WTS instead of throwing it in storage and go back to playing the game. Even if it was worth 100k it's not worth my game time trying to sell, i make more than enough just playing and title hunting and have lots more fun than hitting "enter" "up" "enter" for hours.

Polymock?

I'd rather see Inscribable items drop in all campaigns. (And to make it retroactive, so neat skins we've already found in Tyria can be inscribed.)

Don't worry about boss drop rates. They have separate drops for each item, and they can drop at the same time.

I got a green, a tome, a scroll and a tropy at the same time from one Naga boss in hard mode.

Until polymock has a point, then any piece drop would be replacing something that I might actually want.
