You might be jumping the gun, that could just be good luck.

You should do a few more runs, and see what results you get.

EDIT: And also perhaps post some SS's so we can believe it, if need be.

Statisitcal variance accounts for it. Come back when you have mathematically statistically significant results (same goes for the lockpick rention people).

I've been getting ectos more frequently as well, but I think it's all just luck.

"Higher" is not a verb. You are looking for "raise".

I've seen no change at all. In fact, I still haven't gotten an Ectoplasm drop yet, so again, I've seen no change.

This apparently is true as I play different characters from time to time and notice an increased drop rate (nearly fill all my containers on one run) after not playing them for awhile. Then when I repeat the same zone with that same character there is a significant decrease in drop rates as I barely get the backpack full and maybe a few into the 1st bag for the full run and never get all containers full like the first run. I also find if I play with just my heroes 2 of them or even 1 that the drops aren't significantly any different than playing with 3. These tests are done in hard mode mostly as normal mode drops are pitiful to the extreme. I only play normal mode if there's an area I need to get through to finish the story otherwise it's always hard mode and usaully just me and my 3 heroes.
