Green weapon drop rate problems - Guild Wars Forums

I have been farming ardehs daggers in a 4 person group and after 25 runs I have yet to get her green (ardeh the quick). I am only killing 3-5 mobs on the map before ardeh dies. Any reason my drop rate is so low? and does hero flagging away still work (ie. sending them off the map to get all the drops for yourself)

The reason the drop rate is low is because greens aren't supposed to drop very often.

I had some friends trying to farm a certian green item a couple of weeks ago. It took them over 100 runs to get the item to drop. (they suffer from OCD, LOL)

and i don't believe that hero flagging works anymore...but not positive on this.

I went totem farming for fun the other day and flagged crew away and took the roots on myself not a single drop. I wonder if the flag works anymore as well. I would have thought at least one would have fallen.

I dunno heroes, but flagging works perfectly well for me with henchies in Hard Mode.

I think it's mostly luck. One time, i farmed sf for like a month and not a single drop (5 man B/P). Next thing i know, after that i get three drago's flatbow in a row. So, yeah probably just badluck.
