Can you ask him what evidence he had to change it to start with? The drop rate was higher on Red, which was P99's last manastone occurrence. I camped and witnessed several manastones dropping a day on Red which featured no line or wait list at times.

Here's what I think, someone on the dev team purposely reduced the drop rate for Green to this super low number without having evidence to do so.

In the end, all these people are suffering. I am only level 23 so this does not currently affect me but I have a friend who has been there 30+ hours already and he's like the 3rd one on the list...it's unhealthy and insane, the list system combined with the super low drop rate.

So, Sunderfury, can you find out who dev'd the Red launch and ask them what P99 had the drop rate then and use that number? I mean if he is saying he needs more evidence to change things, where was the evidence he received to adjust it to the % rate it is now?

Summary: change the drop rate to what it was on Red launch.
