And not only are you increasing the likelihood of a Rare Pool A drop from killing foes, but also of getting a Rare Pool C+D drop from killing bosses. The larger the spawn, the more likelihood of bosses.|

And if the foes are level 47 or higher, then you increase the chance of Very Rare Purple drops.
And if they're Rikti... Vanguard Merits.

Have they fixed the bug with recipe drop rates in missions yet? I thought there was a problem with getting anything at all to drop inside missions.

Depends. The bug results from a screwed up variable and the results are variable. Some things, like an Ouroboros Flashback or a TF seem to be dropping normally. Ordinary missions not so much.|

The fix was made internally just recently, it hasn't even hit the Test Server yet, though, I'm guess it will this Tuesday, and then a week later for Live (again, just my guess).

This isn't quite correct. Some people, under some circumstances, are seeing better drop rates than other people under other circumstances. But what those circumstances are is wildly variable between different accounts, due to the nature of the bug. One or two people reported better drops in TF mode than in an ordinary mission, but others were getting equally bad drop rates in TF mode and normal play. It's entirely unpredictable, and not necessarily even consistent over time on the same account.|

The only real way to find out is to monitor your own drop rates and see what's dropping where.

If you are 50, I would recommend to select at least 0 instead of -1, because -1 will drop level 49 recipes.

You may get a purple drop from enemies 47-50, but the recipe will always be 50 for purples.

The bug has nothing to do with being in missions or not. It may depend on whether you're in TF/Flashback mode or not.

So, if I do flashback missions, I can get normal recipe drops?
It's so frustrating. Today, even with Chronologist, I couldn't get a single recipe. Solo/-1/+8 mobs, three missions in a row, kill all, and not a single recipe drop....
Hi,
What's the best setting for 4XP to get rare recipe drops? higher level and/or 8 players?
Thxs in advance,
HC
