Quest Issue: Lens of Lord Soptyvr

[R Flair]

Drop rate for Lens for summoning of terror (terror forged mask) is not right. Camped this thing for the last few days, luckily only a couple times did someone actually come by and kill it. Lens shouldn't be this rare on a mob that spawns every 4+ hours for a level 30 quest. On a server with 5k people on it, it would take months to complete it. Luckily its up most of the time on a server with only a few hundred.

I am a level 32 wizard on the lanys server and have whacked this guy solo at least 6 times... what in the heck is the lense for? He has dropped it every time i have offed him

At least a dozen people eluded to the fact that when they killed him once, he dropped the lens. This leads me to believe it should be a higher drop rate, if not 100%.

Fairly easily, though he chomped me for a bit of damage before he went down. Didn't nuke, just Tashani'd my pet & I. Couple casts of Blaze took him down, but he only dropped the lens & some plats. O well.

I spent about 4 hours killing the e.e.'s on either side of the platform when He poped... got my lens now on to Najena for the widowmistress hair!

This guy is super fast on removing all your buffs, he casts strip enchantment in under a second and it removes about 3 per cast. he was dark blue to me at lvl 35 and the other eyes helped him buy charming and nukeing me. all i got was 5sp and the lens

Just last night i was having a great time in BM, I camped the evil eyes for quite a while, the took the main mamma, soptyvr dropped a lense of soptyvr, or some type of lense, lore, nodrop...any idea what it's for?

etc etc etc (theres at least another 5-10 posts like these).

Ok a few things to address here.

Pending update:
-Lord Soptyvr always drops the lens and optic nerves. No longer drops Polished Bone loots every kill.
-Lord Soptyvr now procs Beholder Dispel.
-common evil eyes and Lords Sviir and Syrkl now proc darkness.
