The first couple of treasures events had pretty high chest drop rate. Over time that has noticeably been reduced. As I understand it, if a mob can drop a treasure chest, the paragon version can drop a chest instead of a map. But many times I have fo…

So far I have only bought the corrupted paladin vambraces. When the durability is 255 applying PoF gives the message "this item cannot be improved further" & not the message that PoF cannot be applied. The balron armor which can be PoF gives the…

The idea has been brought up around a half a dozen times on this forum only to be ignored. I brought it up twice myself very early on. The developers do not seem to want to put in the effort to encourage co-operation, just to punish bad behavior (af…

Hate spectral sword mobs. They take forever to kill because of the parry parry parry they do. Paragons are not even worth killing if you can avoid it. I forgot about them from the previous Deceit event. And the paragon executioners (from the first…

It has been a looooong time since we had someone who would regularly feedback to the players from the development team. Anyone remember Mr. Tact? As I remember he did a pretty consistent job of this. I remember a game breaking issue in the game that…

For blacksmithed items, get a +60 ancient hammer and make 180 skill repair deeds (you will hardly ever fail a repair). For the rest getting below 20ish durability can often result in a failure (maybe 30%?). I am lazy, I normally wait until I get a w…

There is one down in the 1st floor of the last area of Covetous in the chapel. I am pretty sure I remember using in in the first few years of the game to resurrect. But I think they turned it off in later years. It no longer works - I just tried it.…

The ancient wurm and the wyverns do not have tags. But they do in fact count toward drops. I have killed the wyverns on 3rd without tags and gotten drops. Last week I think. Paragon ancient wurm will still spawn. I have spawned them after the last c…

Gather items on one shard, then transfer them to Atlantic to make money to bring back to home shard (or buy items to take home). Yeah, the game economy is totally not broken from the way it was intended. Devs you might as well admit there is close…

When there are decent rewards to be bought, the event drops normally stay around 2-3 million each nearly until halfway through the event. That is even when there are plenty of mobs & a decent drop rate. The prices normally do not drop really low…

My first aid belts (the original ones) still do not work correctly even after the "fix"...

Anyone tried a fencer on the Destard paragons? I tried a pierce build on the Hythloth paragons and it did not do crap for helping with the balrons. It was sorta effective on the elder gazers. Since that I just assumed Destard paragon reptiles would …

Merus said: It would seem like you could code any paragon with more than 600/700 strength or 160 bard difficulty to give a guaranteed drop to everyone on the top attackers list (basically looting rights). All the paragons that are avoided…

It's mainly about quantity. If you are not killing several mobs a minute, you are going to see low drop rates. The re-spawn rate now is too low. We can clear most of 1st, all of second pretty quick with the exception of a few GD / SW paragons... the…
