Is it at all possible to have another look at the rates for drops outside of conti, weps and such are so rare its almost like they dont exist. for me personally having a chance for a new wep /arm upgrade takes half the pain away from the grind. If they could be somewhat closer to how conti rates for loot is, this would makes losing conti not such a big deal for me and im sure many other devs.
i find it very difficult to hunt say Kharil lizards as there slow going exp wise and get 200 barr or so a mob, as far as i know and from the people i have asked no one has even had any drop other than barr, liz eye and s gems. To sum it up i guess it feels as if i have no carrot on the end of my stick to chase, to take the chore of exp grinding away somewhat . i feel conti has it spot on , items dont drop all that often still and even then its a roll if its tagged and which tag and so on. Also its like this for the entire level range , lower skill weps and such are also very hard to come buy . Thanks for reading. Edit: Maybe boost some of the unused mobs around ICC and such for a lot more variation , seems like a waste.

Archis and Murking are a complete waste of a monster, they have absolutely no dropfile at all, no barr, no junk, no nothing.
Psycho trolls are never hunted, neither are Ozle or Matic. Devil warriors are quite decent. Devil Champions go untouched because of their crazy high defensive DEX. Darian drop dead wood and pretty much nothing else and have very high defensive DEX. Ant Eaters are never hunted, some people don't even know of their existance, spiked boots? Really?

The one's in conti have a similar drop rate to AB.

it is not just that mob, the same as almost no one has seen a soul . check the dsoma Usercount lately , also check the trade forums, yet supposedly we have a far easier time getting items. Are the items you need really meant to be so rare you may never get them?
Also the idea of making the grind purposely dull and a turn off just to make conti seem good seems somewhat flawed to me , i dont mean any of this as a moan , but its so low chance for any drop. i get spammed by all lower lvls as many do about the weps they need as they lvl. the gaining stats + gaining better items for your skill is a major aspect to the game, having to skip them all from lower lvls seems a waste. also why not just make the intense have such low rates and the lower tags increasingly common Even the rings for the souls , if someone ever manages to get the souls still requires owning conti, what is there outside conti for dsoma? it needs something .

Monster has killed 35k+ Ab's and 15k Tark Paladins, and has had nothing decent, a drop overhaul is needed asap. A month and a half hunting with nothing decent dropping is a joke and needs to be looked at.

This is primarily the main reason I don't play much. I really have no incentive to keep grinding away for spiked boots droped from Hwan abs while using 50 skill weapons at 75 skill.
If the whole reason for this low drop rate is to motivate us into fighting for conti, then why not still have decent drops in Hwan, but make it so that only higher end tagged items drop in conti? I.E a 61 skill or 69 skill weapons only drop up to hardened in Hwan. Same thing goes for supreme armor. Not asking to be handed everything on a plate, but rather a half decent chance of finding something good and not something that I would have used 10+ levels ago.
