" * Repeated map entry no longer reduces loot."

Wonder if they are going to clear out people that are flagged heavily?

OK, I just tried to flag heros/henchies away, no matter what you only get 1/8 of the drops.

This has pretty much taken the fun out of game, maybe it is too early to tell, but I enjoy soloing, and now I am being punished for it.

Basically it looks like they levelled the playing feild and some die hard farmers will not be happy.. Me personally, I couldn't give a rats ... LOL

Once you get rid of the loot monster in your soul, you like the game a whole lot more

How far did you flag them? I left them at the zone, maybe that is why I didn't get same amount of drops.

just wondering:

can someone check if the chest/buried treasure Flag got reseted?

atm i have 27% to use a retain a lock pick..... hummm back to some CR and when you open the chest in Hard mode it does count towards it anyways.

Essentially, *If I understand it..* More people now have a chance of getting decent loot. This will not boost the bots, oh at first they may increase, but when no one buys the stuff from them on ebay etc, they will die off fast.

Hopefully this update shafts the bots and the ebayers royally.

no it scales DOWN it would seem, if you try farming solo. And sk8tboarder I flagged them at the start too... I didnt do alot of runs though so maybe its sporadic =/

It does not boost anything, it was just changed so you still get the same amount of loot as if you were in a full party, so soloing hurts you, and being in a party is unaffected.

@//RogueNine - Maybe them dieing has something to do with it, I did a tusked howler run, I only got 1 drop per group.

Simple

If your a party of 1 or in a party of 8... you get the SAME drop rate for your character.
I honestly think the pt size when you load sets the rate no matter if you take your hero's away from you.

Kinda strange that they would do this now... They have said many times in the past that they didnt want to get rid of farming. Kinda pointless to farm now.

Default Solo Farming=Fruitless
Well Just tried my usual farm places and lets see what happened. I got 2 drops. Farming is the only reason why I play this game now. I love making money . I don't like playing with other people and now that I can solo farm its just ...whats the point now?

What do you guys think?



sure I get the whole "teamwork" but We should not be forced to team to get loot.

Good. That'll make it less profitable for botters to do their job and slow the amount of money going into the economy.

I smell a petition in the mists. I'm positive when a bunch of people wake up tomorrow and try this out, at least 1/5 of them is going to be very angry one of their favorite hobbies in the game is nerfed: Soloing and Farming alone is a thing of the past my friends.

The updates cool though, I can't even beat northern wall....
