At least it's useful

Pixel's bladed shield above is marginally less useful than a chocolate fireguard.

(also got a nice turquoise staff--needs new mods but nice for heroes).

Just finished a urgoz HM run with Mr.Tooburns
And as usually, we got dissapointed with singlemods and not so sexy loot.

Better luck next time in The Deep!

Sooo here's something for all the treasure hunters out there...

I took 750 Lockpicks with me and did NM Chestruns in Pongmei Valley till all were gone.
This was the result:

- Really Good Drops:


- Good Drops:
Bronze Shield Req8str/15ar +29/9vscold
Platinum Wand Req8 Fire 10-20dmg
Amber Aegis Req9str
Crude Shield Req9tac
Echovald Shield Req10tac
Broadsword Req9 (2x) -> one was r9 15^50
Golden Pillar Req9
Ominous Idol Req9Dom (2x)
Gothic Shield Req9str (2x)
Gothic Shield Req9tac (2x)
Gothic Shield Req10tac (2x)
Echovald Shield Req10tac
Paper Fan Req11 FC
Paper Fan Req11 SR
Paper Fan Req12 SR
Jug Req11 SR
Jug Req12 DF
Ornate Shield Req9str / Req10tac (2x) / Req11tac / Req11str
Bronze Shield Req9tac (+ Req11tac -2st +30)
Embossed Aegis Req9tac / Req9str
Tall Shield Req9tac
Golden Chalice Req9ES

- Not so good Drops:

TONS of amber/jade wands and staves and nonmax golds / unwanted skins (archaic axe, morningstar axe, Branch.... )

Important Note - I did get like 5-10 Bo/Dragon Staves... but not one of them had a max inherent HSR mod!


Some statistics (not 100% accurate) for those who want to get some req8s too:

- I did chestruns untill all 750 Lockpicks were broke.
- 1 Lockpick will keep for ~8 Canthan Chests (in average with Max Treasure & Luck).
- Opened ~4 Chests / Run
- More or less 1 Gold Drop every 2 Runs (in average)

----
750 Lockpicks -> Opened ~5000-6000 Cathan Chests -> Got 9 Req8's:

So you could say for every 666 (^^) opened canthan chests you will get 1 Req8.
If you can do 4 Chests/Run @ Pongmei -> For every 166 Runs you will get 1 Req8.


Result for me:
Droprate is shit ... but I haven't seen so many unidentified Req8's in my inventory in years - so I'll definitely do some more runs!
Still hoping for the req8+5 fellblade to drop^^

(& Yes, req8 max swords do drop from canthan chests)

Cheers!

/E:
just got another req8df paper fan^^

/E2:
will wait untill i got ~20 req8's in storage to be sure at least 1 will be good
will post the identified stuff here too...

cheers

+19% when below 50%?

Because the game would never give up a r8 15^50 or +5e....
It guards those too closely.
