Items found via random drop Part 4 (in General)

Click here for part 3.

I sure didn't get any this month or last month.

I went a terrifically long time without any drops -- to the point where I was asking if it was still occurring. Then I received three drops in about four weeks. That streak ended a few weeks ago.

Not a 1 for me in the last 6-7 weeks.

One of my 3 or so drops ever.

Correction: I won a Steel Familiar lvl 20 on September 20th and never realized it.

I have not received a drop since the system was implemented, including the past month or two.

I received an AoAC a week or two ago.

I haven't seen one in ages, and the two I got were crap.

I've got 3 drops in the last week.

damn, for some this drop system is very beneficial

the drop system seems to me, like the camping system. altho i knew how they were getting their items when camping. this is just a silly system, thats probably why i got just one item.

"the drop system seems to me, like the camping system."

You actually had to work at camping, and spend BA on it. This is just random crap.

2 months no drop

What is a 'drop'?

About 1-2 months without a drop.

over 2 months without a drop, best drop so far is lesser familiar.

first drop!

My last drop was well over a month ago.

still not a thing here
but that doesn't rule my visits to CB hoping to get something thats not there to begin with
I don't even think much of it until I see these posts..

Actually, the 'you had to spend BA' was an improvement from the original configuration. If you were able to get around your job's internet security and actually play during the day you had nothing to do after your BA's were gone except click the store over and over and over and over again so that the 3-4 times per day the store would reset and add items you had a shot at them.

Easily the biggest source of anger 'back in the old days' because a few of us were able to get 75% of the spawned items.

Free drops to me is a heck of a nice improvement because...well...it is free.

So drops happen when store refreshes is what you are saying? because i am unsure as to when and/or if drops still happen?

Nah, he was just comparing the drops to CB1's camping. And I was never a fan of camping, either. Mainly because I sucked at it...

none of your characters show any initiated fights in the last 24 hours, you do realize that you need to fight and win to get a drop?

Received two the first 3 weeks of it, nothing for like 3 months then got 3 items in the past week.

It's been 5 days, and I just realized it now, because I was checking my mail for that blackmarket auction thing....

I really don't get how I missed it...

I got a Katana as well

I got a lovely little ice familiar. First drop for a while though.

It has been over a month for me... although I'm not really complaining because I've had my fair share of drops.

Tulkas is pleased with your victory and grants you a A Halidon Familiar lvl 20. Use it well!

i had one drop so far...a katana of 75k NW.... :(

Late birthday present there Marl?

Well, I got one before my birthday too. ;)

"Ulmo is pleased with your victory and grants you a A Katana [74x9] (+7). Use it well!"

My first drop in.. aw, I have no idea how long, and it's yet another crappy Katana.

All three of my drops have been worthless.

This is all in 1 day. Did the system get changed around a little or am I just one super super super super lucky guy?

Burton: neither Katana nor Gloves of Mercy are worth much... ;)

They may not be worth much, but the fact I got 3x drops in 1 day is pretty amazing to me Shade. :)

Well worth the wait :)

Couldn't believe some luck came my way with 2 drops in 5 hours and both reasonably decent

Zog,

You likely have a total of 700k in drops.

Was that worth the wait?

Did you get that "WOW" factor? And if so, did it last longer than 5 seconds?

Are those drop going to make you stay and burn more BA to get more drops?

Are those drops worth the 20% loss in CB that you could have had if not for the drop system?

If you answer NO, join the club.

Didn't say I was ecstatic, just releived lol

Ah,

So being relieved is the new "WOW" factor?

Great system this drop lottery. From "let us try to make it like camping with a wow factor" to "let us try and have the relief factor that someone finally got something nearly useless".

Can we now call this system a failed experiment?

Ranger yes!

Experiment Failed!
