Drop Rates

Hey guys, I wanted to see what the incarnate trial drop rates have been like for you guys. I have been running on my KM/ElecA, and my DB/WP, and now have 6 of each uncommon saved up on the KM/ElecA, and have just given up on the DB/WP.

How have the rates been for you guys?

Before patch, on a katana/regen:

1 threads, 2 common, roughly 100 uncommon (lost track in the high 70s), 12 rare, 1 very rare, in somewhere around 115 successful runs. Have had around 5 runs where I got no reward due to an ill-timed disconnect, and a few of those drops would have come from MoBAF runs.

After patch:

1 rare, 1 uncommon. Won't be running it often enough to get any meaningful data, I don't think.


Hunter's Forty-Sixth Rule: If your head explodes, you were thinking too much, otherwise you shouldn't worry about the possibility.

Before patch it was like 1 v.rare around 20 rare around 10 uncommon and more than 100 common for kat/SR

After patch I got 2 common 2 uncoomon and 2 rare.

I didn't keep records prior to the patch, but post patch, I've only run them on the katana/regen.

ran 4 lambdas, 1 baf yesterday (that lag was terrible on BaF)
1 common, 3 uncommons, and 1 rare

To get firm stats I need to parse my logs, but I have been doing well. I have four Very Rares (three crafted) on my DM/Regen, and two crafted on my DB/Regen. The other powers have at least one Rare crafted.

I also have 3 VRs and a Rare power on my Dark/Dark Corruptor. That took a while to get rolling, though - I started with lots of commons and uncommons.

All the above was before yesterday's patch. I actually haven't had a chance to play since Monday night.

With my DB/WP scrapper: one very rare, 13 rares, 26 uncommons, and two commons on [mostly] BAFs before yesterday's patch.

After yesterday's patch: one common.

If I had to choose between committing seppuku with a spork from KFC or going through that sort of mind-numbing lagfest again for anything less than a Gladiator's Armor unique, I'd pick the spork.

I was on a BAF on Vir last night that was just like that.

So far I have had 2 vr drops, 3 or 4 rares, 1 thread (I DCed twice), 1 or 2 commons, and the rest uncommons in over 100 runs. that was all before yesterdays patch.

Since yesterday I have had 4 uncommon drops. Which put me at 6 of each uncommon stored up.

I'm also not interested in doing much large-scale content until they fix whatever they did to the button lag with the latest patch. It's not just the Trials, it's anything with a lot of people. I Hami raid all the time, and last night's raid on Justice was the full-time bullet time raid.

The sad part is that I think we would have had an excellent completion time without the lag.

On my Claws/SR scrap last night I ran entirely 16 man BAF's and Lambdas, those times I got 5 rares, 2 uncommons and a common. This is incredibly unusual for me (and unfortunate actually, that character already had all but one t4 so I crafted them to a VR).

I think something about high movement rate, survivability, and rapid fire constant attacks fair well with the gods of participation. As that same character got 3 rares tonight previous the patch as well.

My Fire/Cold Corr on the other hand has received only common/uncommon, never a rare yet in about 20 runs.
