As it is now, one normal monster drops one 'normal' loot, may it be a weapon/focus/gold/armor/collectible part, I'd like to have a small chance that monster drops 2 (two) items, ie. weapon/focus/gold/armor plus collectable part.

For example, trying to get bonesnap shells from Haiju lagoon is extremely difficult when there's only a few Bonesnap Turtles there, and it usually takes few runs to even get one shell to drop (solo).

This is even more silly if you try to do this with henchies, I'm currently collecting Venerable Mantid Pincers for Canthan collector armor (need 10 for whole set), and only place that seems to drop them is outside Nahpui Quarter. And those are pretty nasty to solo, healer mobs and necro mobs with enchant removal so doing it the henchway is pretty much only way (unless you got guildies to bother). Even with 3 henchies I don't get a single pincer every run, and best has been 5 runs without a single pincer drop. Got a pile of weapons, shields and focus items tho.

I don't see how more collector-item drops would hurt the economy, they would just remove/lessen one annoying timesink.

Any suggestion to remove grind is good by me.

Well, I saw a GWG member posted before explaining how the monsters have gold on them.

6. Wurm devours John, and all of John's belongings
7. Wurm digests John
8. Paul, another Wamo came venturing into the area
9. Wurm attacks Paul
10. Paul is victorious
11. Wurm drops gold, which was obtained by devouring John earlier
12. Paul was puzzled at this sight
13. Paul begins to wonder why Wurms got carry gold on them
