I was thinking of this one:
Where Have All the Flowers Gone?
But I guess this one would have been better:
Where have all the cowboys gone
Now we just need to remix it to: "Where have all the drops gone?" lol
My theory is when the Devs implemented this they forgot to take out the percentage of drops goes to team members. So if you play as a 4 person team, you would get your drop and what ever the rest of a 4 person team recieves gets dumped from the system. Try playing as a 1 person team, a 2 person team, and a 4 person; and if can a 8 person team. And see if drops per amount of mobs defeated changes any.
If it ain't broke set it on fire, then say it was a fault in the design.

Nope. Covered in the data thread in the market forum. My main gets the same atrocious drop rates at +0/x1 that he does at +4/x8.

I briefly read some of these forms that there is some kind of problem after i16 and the great lack of drops, be it salvage, enhancement or other kinds. I will have to agree, there is something amiss here. Playing three or four mission should fill my trays with an abundance of goodies and this does not seem to be the case now. Now, I am only getting two or three at the most in enhancements and maybe a few salvage and recipes. Not sure if this is a glitch within the new difficulty settings and something has skewed off the coding which doesn't allow the proper number of drops to happen, who knows?
If anyone has any "current" threads regarding this issue, and/or if we are aware if it's currently being worked on in the next patch, please let me know as this is getting silly. Thanks all!
