Quick question

Can't seem to find this info on Paragon Wiki so I thought I'd throw it out here, apologies for being something probably answered many times. Do Purple recipes drop from enemies 50+ or 51+?

Thanks!

I can't remember who said it, but I seem to remember reading somewhere on these boards that on average you'll get a purple recipe drop every 1500-2000 mobs defeated.

The 'on average' bit is the killer, as we all know how nice and friendly the Random Number Generator can be when it's in one of its moods

Keep fighting 47+ mobs and you'll get purple recipes eventually. Of course, then you start getting Fortunata Hypnosis drops and wonder why you bothered, but that's another issue entirely

Actually, two of my 50s actually have confuse powers, so I'd use them. 2 of my 50s are Darks with holds, so I've been collecting Grav Anchors too. Basically, I'm perfectly happy with the "cheap" purple sets, since the majority of my high level characters are support and not DPS.

Unbreakable constraint is the hold, Grav is an immob set. Fortunata is a sleep while Coercive is the confuse.

Oh, you're right then. That WOULD be a bummer if that's all I got! I mean, I *might* slot it in my Elec/Elec dom's Static Field, but she's quite a ways off 50!

And despite its name, Fortunata H can't be slotted in an actual fortunata toon.
