I'm not sure where you got your 100% definitive information that it was 100% definitively changed (if it even was) 100% due to rmt. You seem quite sure of it.

There has been wild rumors over the years about various camps. A rumor that Myconid Spore King's table switched fungi and robe's rarity so that robe was common and tunic was rare artificially rose the price of a tunic 15k+
(Fungi tunic is the most OP item in the game and should be 100k imo)

alts that we make to stave off the thoughts of suicide because rog/nil are future time travelers who take on the quest to go back 20-50 years back in time to stop 2-3k people from committing suicide due to the backlash of all the people 1999-2004 who offed themselves causing the great semen impregnation depression of 2060.
this is why weekly drunkpost

Also this was not a consideration at the time, the present day "do it for free janitors" who also killed themselves in 2020+ due to their extreme amount of time involved in the "prevent 2060 barrens" time to be a non-issue since maybe 20 potential futures lost in their unforeseen involvements.

I leveled my main in 2000-2001 from 28 to 52 in Guk (was in love with the zone).
Most of the time it was at the frenzy camp. I've seen so many pops. Sash wasn't 1 out of 10. I think sash was 20% or 25%.
The frenzy itself was uncommon pop so it added to the feeling that sash was so rare.

And that will be your legacy. Mopper-upper of camp deputes, the people fighting over a mammoth hide cloak. Cleaner of-fer of valtechishamvalmal corpse-summonerovers empires.
pause.
You know nil/rog can make one of their classic "for the future of Project 1999's Protector changes" of making Summon Corpse null in PoS while implementing an island 0 NPC only coffin turn-in a thing, right? Well that is a current [top guild] invents a way to piss off Sirran the Lunatic to [current island] way, right?
oh who am ikidding, this ban was along time coming and theywere looking for a reason becaus efor all I (you) (they) know (they_ were coming up for a reason to ban me?
I better get at least a 2+ page thread dedicated to me and not that old ass fucking thread necroed to one-off me post for something.
Jauna
09-06-2020, 03:22 AM
i always imagined one of my posts getting myself banned but here I am piggybacking someone elses thread to meet my end.
then again nothing will happen since none of them will care enough and I will go backt playing maybe an hour a month.
with that said, assuming my second and third accounts dont get actioned on. Waht is the fucking currently Blue Server level 20-30 zone for reasons? sometimes all i wanna be is a half elf paladin in a leather bikini blinding shit and mistmoore has been dead for the past 1=10 months i logged in for 10-60 seconds as i await to be milked for my anti-covid plasma being unemployed for the past 7 months shit fuck ass i have trackmarks now.

Yup and theres a few camps where the common and rare drop have been switched on p99 for whatever reason. I never tried to speculate why that is, but I have noticed it. There are also other camps where the 2 drops should be even about 50/50 but one was made way rarer for, again, whatever reason.

Every legacy source shows the Frenzied Ghoul with a 10% spawn rate and a 25% drop rate. That means you should see the Ghoul five times a day and you should wind up with 1.25 belts.
In order to prove this drop rate wrong, someone would have to sit and farm the Ghoul for like a week straight or more. If you're not collecting like 30-50 data points here it's just supposition and could be a bad streak.

If you really think its wrong. Submit an actual petition, with your evidence of what it should be. And nilbog will fix it.
This happened a few years back with the named cycle in TT. People were saying certain names spawned to rarely. Provided logs showing they had been there for hours without seeing them, etc. So, nilbog spawned in 100 cycles, calculated the percentage of the named mobs appearance, and turns out the server was right on the money with what it should have been.

on p99 its more like 1 in 30-50
1 in 10 is a joke , you clearly have never camped it
Also i've seen FBSS drop back to back in 5 minutes when I was in Guk with friends dicking around. But this was months ago. Take that for what it is.

I don’t thin Black Bellamy was saying the current rate is incorrect.

Ironically, Jauna has managed to have the largest positive impact on my life out of everyone on this forum, because of a very strange post involving city of heroes and urination back when it launched. That's how I heard about City of Heroes Homecoming and was able to play with my wife again, which was amazingly awesome since City of Heroes was special for us and she doesn't really do a lot of other games.
I, uh, admit I did not see that coming.

Not sure if you guys realize this but the rarer the loot the more RMTers get when they sell it and less likely normals farm stuff

ok so I've done 68 cycles, 17 frenzies, 16 moonstone rings, one fbss. that'd put frenzy pop chance around 8% which seems unchanged. who knows about fbss drop chance though, ~5%? what did it used to be?

Out of about 7-8 people talked to now who have put serious camping time(10+ frenzy), it now appears that you need to kill 14-15 frenzy per sash, when it used to be 4-5. Or said i another way, sash is now 3 times rarer.

Who cares, at this point there are so many in circulation you may as well camp something else for steady plat versus a lottery at an item that has lost 10k of value over the last 9 months.
Vdaria
09-08-2020, 04:28 PM
well final run for me camping frenzy was 77 cycles, 18 frenzies, 16 moonstone rings, 2 fbss. Drop rate of anywhere from 8%-10% I would guess, spawn rate of 7.5-8%. So every 28 minutes you have roughly a 2.5% chance to get an FBSS. So you could expect your camp to take 40 cycles, or 18 hours 40 mins. Works out to about 350-400 plat an hour. I suppose it's kind of better than farming seafuries, given availability.
nothing like the glory days of slaughtering tolon nicelot in felwithe for 800p an hour

As a side note, not only has the drop rate been reduced to retarded levels the spawn rate of blood thirties has been pushed through the roof.
Why was this done?

No the fuck it aint. BTs only spawned about twice as much as frenzies did. They too were on the rare side of spawns and the retard sash drop rates aren't even in the same galaxy as classic.

That's what a rare drop should be. Camp it for 48 hours until your eyes bleed, feel the pain, deserve it, just like the rubi BP or the manastone camps were toward the end. Have a story to go along with your item... it all makes owning it so much more enjoyable.

Nothing about p99 comes close to classic
See you in guk !
Nothing about p99 comes close to classic
Most especially the playerbase. P99 players' attitudes towards the game and their knowledge of the game's detailed mechanics, are overall much further from classic than anything the devs have implemented.
