My Second Purple


Bright Shadow

 

Posted

I originally had a post in the Market & Inventions section titled "My First Purple". Ahem,...well, after about a month plus of playing my level 50 MM Bots/Traps at -1/+8 off and on, I was able to get my "second" purple as of this morning. Normally, when I play my MM, I usually maybe run about 4 or 5 mish'es before I get bored with her and switch to another Toon that I may be working on developing. Needless to say, when I opened up my Inventions tab and saw that nice shiny shade of purple, it was almost like the feeling you get when you were younger, opening up Christmas Presents under the tree and you get that certain kind of rush of excitement.

Maybe that's why the dev's make them so rare. So we will appreciate them more when we get them...hehe.

That's a little better than some of the sleep, confuse and pet ones.


total kick to the gut

This is like having Ra's Al Ghul show up at your birthday party.

Congrats!

I probably shouldn't mention that I had 2 purple drops in one mission two weeks ago and then another the next day. ^_^

Only one was an expensive damage IO, but still, that was a nice weekend. It'll probably be months before I see another, lol.

I think it's nice that there are people out there who get drops and still get excited like this. It takes me back to happier times. Congrats!

Cheers!

Get one more and you'll have me beat. I'm on my third in two years. Apoc Proc (slotted), Hecatomb Dam/End I think (Sold), and Absolute Amazement triple, sold to some poor schlub who added an extra decimal place to his bid.

I can say that I'll still be excited when I get my next one. =)

I must have the best luck on getting the purples to drop since I pop 2-3 a week consistently. Unfortunately I think I've got a chest in my base which is waiting for my fortunata to hit 50 with a full set of self-popped confuse and sleeps along with the 15-20 leftover sleeps.

I kind of like the ragnarok proc....I mean at least its kd not kb right? If you're 5 slotting its better to put in than the damage which will hit ED and barely do anything itself.

Don't get me wrong, I like the rag proc. It just happens to be the cheapest purple on blue side, 7mil I think. I forget if it's the cheapest on red too.

Soloing my most recent stalker to hit 50, I got one purple from level 46 through level 50, and none since, even though I've put in over a hundred hours solo on him since hitting 50 and dozens more teamed. And his purple was the chance to placate proc. So glad to hear from all you folks that get a purple every 17 kills, but it's still random and not all of the rest of us have had as much good fortune in our drops.
