so when SoA is negating all dmg, you shouldnt be getting energy from essence bond

I'm getting 2 energy per hit when I'm using SoA, but when Shielding Hands is active I'm getting 1 energy. Maybe it's just me

no its not only you, i just tried it. It seems SoA has different mechanics than most -dmg enchantments..

It seems that the drop rate has been "adjusted" by Anet recently.
I doubt that I am mistaking because in 20 runs I haven't gotten NOTHING. Not even a crappy gold luxon garb.

Hoarding all the assasins together seems to make the drops much worse because when you hoard them they tend to drop around 2-4 whites. When u do them individually they drop a lot more crap items.

I used to get golds on average every other run, and I'll get a platinum/dragon staff every 5-10 runs on average. All this has come to an end it seems.

If you know I'm wrong, post a screenshot of you getting more than one gold item per run dated today or later..

i only started farming this spot a few days ago and drops are pretty good, got some platinum staffs i've wanted

ibex333 -> yeah i agree with u i think drop rates have been adjusted somewhat. but getting no golds in 20 runs seems a bit harsh, sometimes i get no golds for a few runs but then get at least 1 or 2 drop soon enough. but i don't do 20 straight runs i rotate once in a while. i did get 2 gold daggers drop from hoarding the big group of sins yesterday and still get gold garbs pretty often too. next time i get a drop >2 i can take a screenshot if u really want it, but its just a bad streak i reckon.

edit: sorry but gotta prove u wrong lol. just went out to farm, nothing on first 3 runs, 4th get a gladius 5th get 3 garbs from first big group, platinum wand from second group.

Why are people still using 2 +1 energy/attacked enchantments in hard mode is beyond me.
Balth's spirits is more than enough to keep you at high energy Vs ONE of those dudes: They attack +33%, and they're assassins for C's sake.

Interesting.... I just got 4 luxon garbs myself, but then I did yet another 20 runs, and again NOTHING..

I got a 14-21 there in normal mode (farmed here before HM came out)

not got 1 in HM yet though

I had received 5 Plat Blades over this week alone.
So, they do drop from the sins.

Umm.. What are you talking about?

kumarshah · May 11, 2007, 03:36 AM // 03:36

My last run I ended up killing between 25-27 Sins.

Now, if only ANet decided to show me some drop love.

Damn, you guys are lucky to get good drops.

I don't even have one gold drop per run currently

. This is my 2nd day of runs, and I have been switching between this and the marketplace farm.
