Nyx

Was the 2x probability flag set correctly. Many have noticed their drops in their hunting areas are very different.

Example. I hunt fv normally and in an hour get about 3-5 hunter's bows, many boots and many potions and 1-2 weapon drops from lava golems.

I walked away with 1 hunter's bow 1 boot hardly any potions and no lava golem drops. This is very odd. Others say the same.

I think it was a .5x drop rate event! I mass killed over 2% worth of mops and only got 12 pouches! I know 12 may seem like a lot but when you are killing 40-50 mops per group and you maybe get 1 or 2 from that size group, that is quite low.

Also, if it is any help... I hunted diad for over an hour earlier and didnt get a single pouch.

something def seems up though. Very noticable decrease in drops. I pay very close attention to income lol. It is my #1 priority.

Loving these lucky pouches though btw, good job on that Nyx and team.

It shows ??? on my PC and Lucky Bag on my Mac. I remember that I 'tried' to change the language of lineage on PC to Chinese, and I think that's why. Now I don't know how I can change it back though.

you forgot to flag the 2x drop part of event... spent some time on 50f last night, and aside from the obvious n/b-enchant count, as someone that hunts there somewhat often, it is clear from the sb/gem/pot drop rate that drops havn't been flagged 2x

I tried that actually, (although wasn't sure if that was it but now confirmed.) but it doesn't help...it's stuck! Looks like I might just reinstall everything when the event ends.

As someone who is also used to seeing certain things occur during actual drop events, I must concur. Whatever it is they "think" they have active, drop probability is not it.

Here are some telling signs of drop events (as denoted by past events):

Lesser Dragons will haste themselves around 90% of the time.
So will Tauverus.
As will Fire Ghosts.
Bombflowers will rountinely drop 1 of each potion type.
Fire Archers will drop hunter bows and/or boots fairly regularly.
Dragon Valley skeletons frequently haste, as well as drop bcomrs.
Mainland drakes are hasted 90% of the time and pack a laundry list of healing potions (which they will try to use all of before dying).

The ONLY thing of note on here was that normal Ifrit drops are so bad that when he drops anything at ALL, it might just BE a drop event for them. And the few that I got did indeed drop stuff! *shocked*

The 2x drop probability is "definitely" no enabled on live servers. Its more like the opposite like normal drops been lowered 50%.... Im dissapointed.
