GOLD VENDOR FIRST WEEK DISCUSSION THREAD

[LordManhammer]

Please read my post here: http://annihilus.net/showthread.php?t=11578&page=2 . Some people may have to give up some of their "fun" if they want the server to grow and receive new content. A lot of people aren't seeing the full picture here.

Also, nobody has EVER bought hundreds of Infernal Chests, trust me, me and my PayPal would know. Also that logic is pretty crazy, someone will complete ONE set if they buy hundreds of chests? I'll win thousands of dollars in the lottery if I go buy hundreds of tickets I guess... lol

I was in a game on the first day of the last reset where someone did just that. I happened to be in town when the guy started opening Infernal Chests at Hadriel. I know what this looks like because I've done it many times in single player. By the time he was done spamming chests the entire screen was filled with loot. Most of it was garbage but I just sat there and cherry picked the stuff that he didn't want so I could get started. Now it may not have been hundreds of chests but I know from experience on single player that you can get a full set from 50+ chests. RNG plays into it of course but I've done it. People were talking about having already completed full Mavina's and other sets within hours of the reset while we were all leveling together. Maybe they were full of crap. Who knows?

[Game]

remove following items from hadriel for at least one month after reset:
-Runes
-Infernal chests
-Organ baskets
-Frag baskets
-Ench scrolls

And also:
- Decrease droprate of uniqs/sets for ryleh, infernal cows, and other inf areas.
- Remove puzzle boxes from cache of ryleh when opening with key (this is retarded)
- Fix droprate for puzzleboxes (item find droprate is much higher then initial kill)

Nothing will be removed for longer than a week, sorry Also drop rates have been lowered twice in Patch 4.2 alone, do you read the patch notes? As for the drop rate of puzzles and find item, this is COMPLETELY a placebo effect. Find Item literally just re-rolls the monster drop again, except it's chance of not dropping anything is related to Find Item level, not the amount of players in the game. I will probably nerf Find Item a little though.

50 is nowhere near hundreds, thats a large difference. Even then I don't think it was more than 20-30, I know who you're talking about I do believe. And it is as you said, RNG is RNG. It could take 20 chests to get a set, or it could take 500.

Yay let's make mobs have 1% chance to drop an item period (just a single magic jewel) so that way there is no gear at all and people bitch some more.
Let's face it, who cares about regular set items, it's all about late game items that have set drop rates (think crucible, it will always drop an item no matter what)

The system is fine the way it is. It brings money to the server, people who have money ALWAYS had an advantage in ANY GIVEN game whether it's this one, WoW, POE, etc, etc.
Money can buy anything so your logic is flawed from the get go
