Thread: RIS Loot Drop Rate

With Publish 14 coming out today, one of the patch notes state: "Fixed a problem with all high-end loot drop rates."

OK, does this mean that GDKs should drop more often? Less often? Will they continue to drop multiple scales when they do drop? Will they go back to not dropping at all ;P

A year and a half of work and the CU turned the armorsmithing profession I love into a horrible, mindless grind, so I decided to take up a profession that doesn't even use armor.

Everything was dropping too much. We have so many GDK scales on shadowfire now, people can't even sell them for 1 mil ea. People hunted these things like crazy when they started dropping again.

ris loot rate was very high. I looted 25 gdk scales in less then 1 buff set. there have been a few auctions on interpid where 100s of gurk hides, and large numbers of woolmander bones are being auction. gurks hide have been mostly dropping in sets of 5s at about 1 in 4 gurk kings for me

That's what I'm thinking. When Publish 13 came out it seemed GDKs were dropping scales for the first time in months. I think people were saying 1 in like 10 were dropping multiple scales.

Now it seems to be like 1 in 20, but still dropping multiple scales. With the publish today, is it back to 1 in 10? Is it like 1 in 50? The devs say fix, but we don't know what's meant to be.

RIS isn't going to be so uncomon anymore.... Too bad the resources are still a pain to get.
