Better drops now? - Guild Wars Forums

Fear The Apocalypse · May 27, 2010, 02:30 PM // 14:30

Okay, so last night My guild and I did two dungeons (Arachni's and Ravens Point) and an Arbor Bay VQ.

It seemed like we got more Gold drops and WAY more Elite tomes than normal... I mean every Locked Chest produced at least 1 Elite Tome for someone and I think maybe only one Grape drop came out of the chests. We hit probably 20chests.

I was wondering if this was just something that was kind of a fluke or is it someway tied the banning of the 3700+ bots.

Did banning the bots make drops/rate of good drops improve...?

Has anybody else noticed a difference?

If banning people would increase the droprate... I would have Anet ban every player except me, so I would be filthy rich and king of Guild Wars.

It would be an empty kingdom though.

Having to agree with the above posts, coincidence and all that.

If player load has any bearing on area drop rates, then the recent WiK content has probably redirected more players away from dungeons (in the short term at least) than the relatively small number of bot bans.

I thought we were friends :P

OT: it's random (and I mean completly random, not the RA syncing kind of random)
