That stinks. Loot weekend starts Thursday at least. That will help greatly.I just ran the saga in Myth Drannor on R10 with a full group.
We did not get more common items than usually and we got zero rare items.
Could be bad luck I suppose or could indicate that whatever you did to drop rates either didnt make it in or isn't noticeable.
Once I know if the increase is meaningful I will applaus. Not before.Considering how many folks were shouting "Get rid of rare loot or I'll quit the game", I'm surprised people aren't making more noise about this change - seems like a positive move?

Too illustrate the point in my previous post:Considering how many folks were shouting "Get rid of rare loot or I'll quit the game", I'm surprised people aren't making more noise about this change - seems like a positive move?
The chance to reach the rare table was increased from 3% to 5% FYI. So it's still horrible.<insert a you must be new here joke>.
Uhh... the change literally just went live and SSG gave zero details on how much it was adjusted.
Firstly, did the change actually go live? This is SSG we're talking about. They're the embodiment of "trust but verify".
Just because they say something was changed doesn't mean it actually worked. They have a track record of failing the "verify" part on their first attempts.
Secondly, how much was it adjusted? Was it 30%, 10% or 0.1%?
Obviously, 30% would be great, 10% would be nice, 0.1% not so much. An increase of 0.1% would still make their statement technically correct even though that would basically amount to a rounding error in-game.
Since they give no specifics, our options are "Trust me bro" OR wait for someone with a lot of free time to manually datamine the new drop rates. Referring back to the first point, "Trust me bro" sometimes doesn't end well with SSG.
If SSG wants more praise for stuff like this, they need to start being more open and transparent with the players.
Then apply the math for the chances of getting the specific rare item you want off the rare table and it's worse.The chance to reach the rare table was increased from 3% to 5% FYI. So it's still horrible.
Rare discovery pots that up the odds for getting on to the rare table...Then apply the math for the chances of getting the specific rare item you want off the rare table and it's worse.
I can't wait for them to introduce an "exceptionally" rare table behind the rare table. It'll be rare loot table inception. Then they can introduce a mechanic to let you pay extra shards to reroll your shard reroll...
Don't give them ideas!Rare discovery pots that up the odds for getting on to the rare table...
