I am confused on the new drop rate, please someone explain it in stupid terms?

Before the patch that is currently on test: Every kill of someone put you on a rep timer during that time if they killed you or you killed them the timer would reset. While you had a timer no PVP IOs could drop.

After the patch on test:
The timer doesn't reset on kill and you don't get a timer for them killing you.

So please tell me how the hell the new system is better than the old one.

The new system is better than the one that's live right now.

I don't know why you think anyone else is comparing it to the system that came out with the PvPOs.

Yessir.

If it gets some people in the zones, we'll see recipes.

I'm sure prices on the super l337 ones will stay crazy, which just might inspire people to organize zone PvP events for their SGs or whatever, which just might create a lot of drops.

Wild guesswork yes, but the new rules are a much better incentive to PvP than the first version. Who knows.

He is being willfully ignorant because its in his personal best interests to do so, consider it forum PvP.

You people with your ebil logic arguing that PVP IO prices will go down in price after the patch are rudely hindering his personal economy. Bad! Bad marketeers!

But either way, the market is still mine!


[/ QUOTE ]

So how did you come to have so many PvP IOs? Are they just saved up from the period before the first round of changes to the rep timer?


And for a while things were cold,
They were scared down in their holes
The forest that once was green
Was colored black by those killing machines

Maybe, just maybe my comment was based on someone elses post. I won't name any names, as I don't think Stillhart would like it, or even quote him, that would be rude.

Before, you had a 10 minute timer that reset all the [censored] time

So now you are resorting to belittling people because we post our transactions. Don't like it? Oh wait, I don't care if you do or don't. I would advise staying out of the market section if you feel myself and the others who post their accomplishments / transactions. I find it funny and I'm wanting to share that humor. Yeah, I guess if posting and sharing humor is ignorant, then yep thats what I am.

The changes make them farmable again, which means there will be more showing up on the market.

the drop chance doesn't need to change for players to generate more recipes.

[/ QUOTE ]

1 chance every 5 min is not farmable. At least not by one person unless they have dozens of accounts and enough computing power to keep them all going at the same time.

Why bother farming for on average 1 drop every 8 hours or so?

Add several more toons and you can get it down to 1 drop every hour or so. Still much worse than before. Just because the drop rate is better than 0 does not mean the supply will be anywhere near where it was.

Ok stupid terms. New drop rate.

You get 1 chance each time you kill somone.

Then you gotta wait 5 min before you get another chance against the same person.

To the players who farm the game for money, yeah, this is very farmable. They are able to set up whatever they are doing and go afk and earn them. It may not be as easy as it was before the newer changes to the pvp reward system, but its definately farmable and will be farmed.

See, before the players could manipulate the odds on getting a reward, now the devs have removed the ability to manipulate the chances in getting a reward by slowing down the kill pace when it comes to a single target. Its based off of luck now moreso than anything else.

Yeah, you could and can still increase the chance of a drop, but you need a lot of people to coordinate something like this. And I doubt that will happen. At least not to the extent to equal what the previous system use to reward anyway.

I still don't understand


Just kidding, does this allow PvP drops in the Arena or are they no longer dropping there?
