Victim_Of_Siege said: As for bot trains, they’ll always exist because someone will always try to brute‑force the RNG. Designing the entire drop system around stopping them is like banning cars because some people speed. I think otherwise...…

vortex said: I have around 2800 luck. But I play cause I enjoy it and if I get a egg that's nice but not the end of the world of I don't. Popps do you get any enjoyment from this game cause it doesn't look like it everything is a grind and y…

Mordeed said: Ive given up for the time being, I found all I was doing was hunting for a egg and not enjoying the game. All my event points have been spent on massive maps and I really want some of the other stuff. hours and hours, lots and …

keven2002 said: There is a thread over in stratics where people posted that they got their mature egg with the added luck. How about you add YOUR findings @ popps with actual data? How many hidden chests have you done? Sounds like not many …

Petra_Fyde said: For massive, it's not so much which template as which tactics. When using my tamer, I use a Najasaurus and park it off screen while I dig the nest. Invis when the mobs come up and then run to the pet. This splits up the mobs …

Pawain said: Doing nests would help decide what type template you would like to try for T maps. You can concentrate on the killing part and see which style you prefer, then modify to add the T hunting skills in. For Tmaps I used a guy with …

Pawain said: @ popps why are you the only player having issues with the chests? There's at least 3 other places to post, you are the only one having trouble making a template and doing the content. Frankly, I do not understand it... I real…

Cookie said: Haha, I'm not going to help you on this one, but I get your point. My justification in my head has been - animals have hooves, so cannot remove traps!. Then why is it possible, while in animal form, to pick locks ? Regardless …

Urge said: Idk i'm torn. I could make bank selling smoke bombs if the timer was removed. Playing a thief should be a mastered art. It shouldn't be easy or accessible to everyone just because of a few backpack items. I don't really count…

keven2002 said: Make a macro to cast animal form.... press it when you walk up to a chest. This literally takes 1 second. Are you that bored? lol That is what I did... still, going in and out of animal form to remove a trap is getting old.…

Mariah said: @ popps perhaps read the five on friday response, quoted by Pawain in the OP? There will be additional methods to acquire Dragon Nest maps, That says nothing about what the additional methods will be which was my question... Wha…

Mariah said: I read the post from Parallax, so I know that he told us there will be additional methods to acquire Dragon Nest maps. Perhaps read what other people have posted so you don't need to ask questions that have already been answered?…
-
Petra_Fyde said: My thoughts, which may not be accurate. IF the matriarch is staying in, and the nest maps are staying in, then the nests will continue to contain eggs for us to turn in? Therefore, there is no pressing need to store thousand…
-
One thing is unclear to me... If the Dragon Nests (and the Matriarch spawn) will be a persistent content (which is a good thing so that all players wanting a Mature egg will not need to get worried if they are not lucky throughout the current ongoi…
-
Well, thanks for the news, that is refreshing for all those who were looking to get a Mature egg and were pressed by the time limited Event and the extreme difficulty to get a drop. Since Mature eggs will keep spawning after the current Event ends,…

Pawain said: Players can double-click a Smoke Bomb to make a normal Hiding skill check (treated as if they pressed the Hiding skill button), which if they succeed they will become Hidden, and then immediately make an additional free Stealth s…

Sylph said: I have been doing this for 3 weeks straight now almost for 8-15 hours a day (I work from home and hurt my leg so stuck just relaxing not obsessed with gaming or anything ) and I've 0 mature eggs to show for it. I've done chest,…

KroDuK said: LOL, Grim had me foul, I really thought he was higher troll tier for a while. His problem is not because he's running instead of walking! @ popps Are you asking why you cannot use hiding skill after performing stuff like; stea…

Petra_Fyde said: The thing is, and many will disagree with me on this. But smoke bombs aren't a rogue's resource, they're a ninja resource. I find invis spell much more useful because you can keep casting it when revealed repeatedly and still…

Pawain said: While doing Matriarchs on Atl, I've gotten over 600 drops, At least 400 eggs. Scores of trees, 5 Clothing, 1 Mature egg. Maybe 1000 eggs gets a dino skele. If they are just giving away rewards, why do I bother playing? Well, …

Grimbeard said: To clarify if you are stopping and using bomb there is zero need to cast a spell Try performing a steal or use the Detect Hidden skill and then, use a smoke bomb right way. You will get the following message : "You must wait…

Grimbeard said: You're a rogue not a racer? It's meant to be slow Well... if the surrounding spawn was also slow and took 10 seconds before targeting the visible Rogue then there would be no problem to be a slow Rogue and wait for the smok…

Wouldn't it be easier (and faster) just to turn up the spawn rate for Mature eggs across all their sources of spawn... Hidden Chests, Nest Maps and the Matriarch drop ? Just saying...

Grimbeard said: Stop no literally you have to stop when using a smoke bomb now I know getting revealed surrounded by monsters is terrifying but stop when using the bomb then move slowly (this is where never run toggle most needed) Not sure I…
-
I agree that the current drop rate for a Mature egg is way, but way too low whether one tries the Hidden Chests, the Matriarch fight or the Nests Treasure Maps. And this extremely low drop rate, I seem to understand, is even when using very high Lu…

Mariah said: a word of warning, it only works in Trammel, not Malas, not Ilsh etc, only tram. Now, that is very odd... I wonder why is that... I mean, if it works on Trammel why would it then not work on any of the other Facets ?
