Anybody else noticed that after last nights update bosses now are holding theyre greens always. Previously they only held it randomly and thats how u figured the drop was coming, now who knows. I havent hit a drop since then , anybody else figure it out

they dont always have their green, they DO always have the nearest normal equivelant of their green, eg i farm Ghial for his bone staff and his staff is bright white compared to a normal bonestaff, now he always has the duller in colour normal bone staff, and this has completly screwed up my main source of income in this game, i made 1000K on the best day lol, so now i just need to kill all the jades then kill him and HOPE he drops the staff, before i could just run to him and see if he had his staff and if not i would just map back, now i will only get 1 staff a day if im lucky not the 10-12+ :S

i really should have had one today already tho, i capped that bich over 40 times so far today and no green wtf :@ so they also nerfed the drop rate too, FU anet thnx :|

"omg someone worked out an extremly efficient build to farm greens in our game, using the "laws" i nthe game we set up to their advantage, we must change the whole way green drops work cause some ppl are getting too rich ! " WTF NOOBS !!!! if theres too many dropping then just change the overall droprate, not the whole fact that you must see the green weapons model o nthe character for them to drop it, thats been going since SF first came arounfd and it makes alot of sense and was fun looking at drago and saying "woot he has his flatbow, goodluck guys lets see who gets it !

" or ignoring him if he had none etc

fine i now need to work harder for my money, and the amount i was making was ludacrisly high, but it took me a week to perfect my build and method to the point of making that much, seems you get good at the game and start making real money just for them to knock you right back down again, it really doesnt make much sense, very few ppl were farming him to the extent i was , i know this as the price still stayed high.

gah, FU anet again lol !

* goes back to UW to farm ectos with my SS necro :@ *

The visual update was good. Yeah it doesn't make it so you can breeze by the boss and see if it's got the drop you want, but I don't think that's a bad thing. I don't think green farming should be a run in and peek method the way it was before. Trying for the drop should mean going up against the boss everytime.
