DAR is seemingly still rather low for indi party. I haven't even seen a drop outside mahux17 in 180x hhx3+150mins hh of this one. Its not just me its many people who are taking notice to this. The same issue is being rehashed by everyone here. I don't know maybe it was just set to low when it was fixed. Maybe its just really terrible luck for a lot of people. Maybe people are to used to the better drops being a bit spoiled. Either way when nothing drops for this long in hh+about 60 runs outside hh. So not as if I didn't run tests on a regular basis as well outside hh. I've been seeing nothing drop from bosses on shared for 17 runs straight now.(again test runs) I have to wonder whats the point until this is resolved. Seems like a good time for a break to me. I have faith in Soly sorting it all out here eventually. I don't want to see the economy go from on the mend to broken again. I have seen many get drops now. Same time I've seen lots get nothing or few drops. Exception to it all is those getting as jez put it Godly luck. I'm not going to comment here again. Just this last time these are my observations, among many others here. Don't make it absurdly easy to get drops. Just don't make it impossible or to the point where its no longer worth it either...Nobody wants hand outs or complaining to make it easy. We just want a reasonable DAR rate simple as that. So we can all continue to enjoy the game. Getting the drops or not is no issue its when DAR is so terrible all of a sudden for many.

This wasn't intended as doomcrying or anything of the sort. Its merely a observation of numerous players. Rates do seem rather extremely low for DAR aspect of it. All of my comments were mere observations. I know several good players and friends who all quit because of this.(among other reasons this just added to it) I don't think the server will ever die, or so I don't hope it ever will anyhow. Many people have just noticed little to no drops of note. Where I might do 40 runs for X before and get something. I still find a lot of materials on runs some red boxes sure. Just not really anything of note. Items still drop as ana g stated as well. Just how many of said items are something worth picking up. Answer is next to nothing anymore. From my personal experience ever since the change. I've had the most difficulty with DAR from bosses on indi. 20/22 runs on average bosses drop nothing. 2/22 runs bosses drop something might be meseta or a common junk drop, maybe even a rare junk drop. So factor this into actual drop rate with DAR. Its much higher to the point next to nothing seems to drop off them anymore. I now do the same amount of runs and notice X amount is drastically reduced to little or nothing. On shared everything is dropping fine so this is what I play on usually now. Not every monster needs to drop an item every time it dies that would be absurd in the opposite direction. You don't need to return to the rates it was before. Just one extreme to another seems just as silly. I'm glad its being looked into here. Again everything I stated was my own personal observations or ones many players have voiced concern over+experienced themselves... It was on a serious note. I don't think anything should be absurdly easy to obtain. At the same time nothing should be nigh impossible also. When someone has to do 200-500 runs in a 16+year old game for one drop. Fine at least it'll drop then. When nothing drops and you invest this kind of time and effort into a hunt. Well you get the point here. Either way this will only make the economy worse, lead to many more locked rooms+shared rate ninjas..among other issues. Economy was looking great, still is its on the mend here. Much is still a expensive, but its a work in progress. I don't feel typing any more here is worth it. I think players concerns have been made loud and clear. Maybe locking this would be good? Just update us all when something is done to address these concerns.

Welcome to Ultima, and PSOBB. I wish you a enjoyable, and good stay here!

www.savethisserverfixDAR.com In all honesty reducing DAR to drastic levels so next to nothing drops... is the polar opposite of what it was before. Somehow going from one extreme to the exact opposite extreme makes even less sense. You could always go to the old rate, just cut it down slightly. So its not absurdly high if thats what staff claim. Also would satisfy everyone so its not so low limited drops appear either. We really are losing and have lost some good players here. The economy will keep getting worse again. It was finally on the mend and prospects regarding it were looking great for 2018. Now it just seems everyones going to play exclusively with friends. As well as just hiding in locked rooms+shared drop rates. Previous rate might have been to high, might not have been as well. Either way stands to reason current rate is FAR to low. Resolve this please so the damage done can be repaired quickly. Thank you! Just listen to the players. They are what keep this server alive. No players=no server

PM me if your interested in it. I've currently got several people interested in it making me offers. I'm still on the fence for selling it. However if I get a really nice offer. Most likely with something I want in it+ some dts I will sell it probably. Considering I already have a DM set.

I'm kinda looking for a lot more for this. You can make a 90 hit DM with this using PGF. I'm actually buying more but with different stats. Considering I'm offering 100 dts for buying them. I feel the price tag should be a lot higher for me selling one as well. Sorry buddy. To be honest I'm only entertaining offers on it as well. I would probably only sell it for a very good offer. Given the above making 90 hit Dm using PGF with it.

I ran out of likes for the day. I'm liking this tomorrow when it refreshes @mudkipzjm

Some people are still lucky at times yeah. Last hh I did everyone got tons of drops even 1 rr for someone in one run. Generally though this isn't the case for many anymore. When you go 3 hh without a single drop outside some mats and 1 or 2 pds max whole time. Something just isn't right. On top of it I hunt a lot outside hh on a regular basis. Always have my luck has always been terrible. Now instead of a rewarding decent drop after all the effort and time. I get nothing a long side many others here. So for every drop one used to get they get 0 instead now. No way around it they DAR now is absurd. Even IF somethings drop few and far between. This is the exception only not typically how it goes anymore. One might even look at the above and tell me I just had a bad hh. These happen but not 3x in a row+ tons of runs outside hh over the past week. Then its not normal at all. Factor in a lot of people have fared similar. Hence this topic after all.

Well if shared drops become a thing again. Looks like I will resume soloing or only with people I trust. Being on a tablet ninjas will always reach drops before I do.

I haven't seen a single boss drop in 3 hh now. I wasted 180 minutesx3 and got 0 decent drops outside some mats even. These drop rates are just terrible now. Please fix it thanks! This shouldn't have to be so. I put a lot of hours into this game/server. These drop rates now are really going to mess things up for a lot of people. Its why so many are posting here about it.

Ultima will never die. Nor will pso...Viva la pso or something along those lines.... Don't worry people will always play here. Many keep coming back off and on as well.

Woah this is an old topic

I actually did a run for this but I am terrible with making videos lol I just did it to participate in an unofficial capacity haha.(hoped it would encourage others to join in as well) I did see what you were referring to for the camera angle being weird in the one big room. Also makes sense that one big room you really can't do without healing of some sortxD

You both just hit a new level of awesome thank you so much if so!
