Fix blackthorn captains please!
Blackthorn captains used to give roughly two minax drops. If i solo, great i get two drops for my hard earned effort. If im teaming up, usually my teammate and i both get one. System was great!
When i solo it now, its been 1 drop every time. Given the difficulty and the length of time i takes to kill a set of captains and then beat on a lighthouse for days, it just isnt worth it anymore.
Was this change intentional? I get why the rest of the dungeon is empty, scripters ruined that for us. I don’t see why blackthorn captains needed a drop rate nerf.

We should have more content that requires a group to get more whatever. Solo can get the minimum. So, you are not left out. They tried to make T hunting that way but a group just gives 3 to 4 more armor items so not really worth it since 1 player see all the stuff.
This rewards group play still because you clear fast and everyone gets loot.
so if 20 people attacked it, the dropped would be divided.
now 1 person can afk farm it with 20 accounts and get 20-60 drops per captain. (yes this is where the majority of those items come from)
we basically exchanged afk farming the lesser mobs in the rest of the dungeon, for afk farming captains. under both scenarios, the drops are worthless and not worth doing unless your a botter.
basically, theres no point in solo farming it anymore unless your running multiple clients.
Ya it is a shame that a new or returning player can now go to blackthorns and learn how to fight with a group and get rewards and not have to buy them.
Big picture the greedy vendors will make less. what a shame.
Regular players can get their own items.
@Kyronix :
The spawn in the rest of Blackthorn's dungeon was nice for a variety of reasons. If they were removed mainly due to script farming the drops, then please consider coding the non-captain spawn to simply not be eligible for giving drops. If this was not the main reason, I'd like to know what was. I particularly miss the gold elementals.
