[quote="AZUMI"]Hippy and Myself have done over 300% here between the two of us so close to 2000 mobs. We have not had a single weapon drop! From what we can see, we've been here between us pretty much all day since server reboot, no one else has been hunting there to be lucky enough to get a drop but we've had zilch! So these have like the lowest drop rate for a weapon EVER! Or they don't drop at all. [/quote]

[quote="AZUMI"]Got my answer, rarest things ingame :s [/quote]

[quote="ARROW"]What does EE mean? What do they drop? Sorry nooby question[/quote]

[quote="DOTHRAKI"]Earth Elementals in Dungeon level 2. They are supposed to drop various weapons (see Armory), but they don't really drop any weapons (trained there for quite some time).[/quote]

[quote="NAIKOFIG"]this is about Dsoma EE's and me and 187 been hunting there for the last 160% orso but we got 1 wep azumi a staff :p[/quote]

[quote="HIPPY"]Best I've had is 2 Deceiver sets which the NPC thanked me for. [/quote]

[quote="AZUMI"]Finito checked and the weapons are set to drop rate of 1 in the database which is something like a 0.02% or something chance of dropping :D[/quote]

[quote="AZUMI"][quote="ISYLVER"]0.033% each (7x weps so 0.23%) . So roughly your looking at 1 weapon per every 400 killed. Keep at it and we'll look at possibly upping them in the future. [/quote] Certainly aint dropping at a rate of 1 every 400 killed! I've done 2 whole levels there which is over 2000 mobs. Not one drop. Hippy has done a further 125% there, which is approximately a further 1200mobs without a drop. By your maths we should have had 8 weapons between us...... Incidentally, I've had 3 poison plants and 6 pieces of deciever armor (trash!) So in theory a piece of deeciever armor should be set as probably a rate of 3 maybe 4? and a PP set at a rate of 2? I'm sure that aint the case though.[/quote]

[quote="HIPPY"]By the time we get the weapons we're after we'll quite possibly have the skill for the next 2 up, I know I'm nearly on the one after 55 skill. With the current drop rate of 55 skill weapons theirs no point of them being in game, they might as well be bypassed.[/quote]

[quote="AZUMI"]More chance of a hsoma Spirit's Powder at this rate :P But ye I came here before the skill i needed for these weaps and I'm not to far away from the next weapon requirments. Suppose I'd better go start hunting for that! **Edit** Oh wait. Darian are 20str stronger than EE. Need the sword from EE to go hunt the next sword from Darian :/[/quote]

[quote="HIPPY"]I'll give it another night at EE if nothing then I'm moving on and making do with a 34 Str spear at 60+ str..... It's not worth the torture. Slower levelling compared to hoppers for me. At a loss every hunt there, absolutely nothing worthwhile selling. Lucky if you get one yellow gem. Having to deal with them Mongmen -__- You'd think it was an end game weapon. Makes no sense at all, better weapons are available much easier.[/quote]

Guess what I got? :P Thats right, Nothing :D[/quote]

[quote="HIPPY"]Ridiculous haha[/quote]

[quote="AZUMI"]iSylver I really think that your calculations of the drop rates are off. I'm pretty certain that in esoma the likes of Spirit Powder, Angel Tear etc were not a 1/400 drop rate. Even when they're set as a drop rate of 100 in the DB things are still incredibly rare! Something needs to be done about this. Not for me, I've wasted my time here and am pretty much ready for my next weapon now. Completely skint because they drop nothing I can sell for any value and have had to buy my way through the levels due to high dura loss on these nice agressive mobs. Yes they're the same stats as Hoppers, but hoppers made a huge profit per level, EE's make you nothing.[/quote]
