Because Dsoma.

I was speaking with isylver about upping the drop rate at Kharil lizard as I've been hunting for 3 levels and not had anything.

But the more I think about it now, I'm sure drop rates across the whole of Dsoma need upping.
The problem I think is there isn't enough people killing so the drop cycle is a lot slower then it is on Hsoma, I know the drops don't work like this but its just a easier way to explain- if a weapon had a 5% chance of dropping if there is 10 people killing in that one spawn the chance of more weapons dropping is higher and the chance of upgrades mats dropping become higher. but if theres only 1 guy hunting then that chance becomes a lot lower.

the drops need to be upped to come in line with the usercount. (guessing they're set at the same rate as hsoma)

Or have some upgrading mats like frogs, large liver and eggs added to drop file to have something dropping might be a nice option. cause at the moment we are all hunting for the hopes of a intense/epic weapon split the hope of getting that insane weapon and make us hope for something else?

I understand your point, but no - that doesn't fly.

Droprates in general are massively lower than Hsoma - You can do a hunt on a human, at any given monster, and have several drops per hunt (which are understandably shorter due to less bagweight).

You can do 3, 4, 5 entire levels on Dsoma and outgrow the monster you're hunting before getting a drop in some cases.

That is not the case with ANY monster on Hsoma.

I would think it's on the to-do list, as it's been brought up many times before. Dan said he's sorting stuff out in the new year and he's already been on the ball with making some changes to wbm, hogs and apai. :)

I've never gotten upgrade items and something nice from mobs after I capped.
Nothing from mino,nothing from wbm,nothing from hog,nothing from apai.
Is hunting with penalty worse drops than without penalty?
Dsoma droprate is too low :(

Doesn't effect it.

The dsoma drops and drop rates is something we'll have to be tinkering with for a while (we'll never be done). It can be for adding more mats and content or simply because it's needed.

Thanks for the feedback, please keep it friendly and constructive.

Apai we're tweaked yesterday (stats) for those who didn't notice. Sylver took some of his time before work to do this.
