Knuckle drop rate seems a bit off in Dsoma only one intense KoD in game as far as anyone knows. GL are supposed to be the main mob to drop them, no one hunts them or has any reason to other than to get knuckles. Done 7 levels there on my farming archer and had 3 untagged knux.... What's the deal dudes. I'm hinting towards epic and higher by the way. Just seems weird every other class has plenty of weps. Only other explanation would be characters hoarding them all. Either way takes the enthusiasm out if lvlng when you can't get a decent wep

121 skill knux are dropped by the GL on the left side. I had several untagged per hunt (1 hour or so) when i hunted them at level 40.

I'd say Knux and Bow have it easy as they have a specific mob they can farm for their weps. Spear and Axe have nothing.

Knuckles are not rarer than other weapons...

There are more than 1

When was the last time you guys hunted there? I've spent 4 weeks hunting overall and around 3 days there since we last got conti all around GL area and had a hand full of untagged drop. How are there so many Epic and epic+ tag in other weps compared to knuckle then?
I'm not looking to argue with you guys, only reason I'm asking as it seems weird to me. Gen i know you have 2 great epic knux that you have had from very early game, and same with jaras intense. just seems to be no new epics around that i can personally see. have you guys been actively hunting for knucks lately? have you seen many getting dropped in game?

if you have, stop breaking them all and share the love...

Mith and Smudge me by the way, forgot to tag myself back in for forum

I've broken about 5 or 6 of Path's epic knuckles.
Stones has also broken many of his.

If anything, there have been more epic knuck than any other weapon, excluding Sword. We just break them all doing upgrades.

Jara's is not the only Intense knuckle ingame either.
Just like there is more than just 1 intense spear too.

I'm not sure which of the two this is about, drop rates or tag chance.

Either way I can tell you this. There is no reason for us to differentiate between weapon drop chances and I most certainly don't expect to see any. Though I must admit at this point in time I don't know exact drop rates. If this has happened anywhere on the server it'll have happened on ESoma spawns.

Secondly the tag chance. It's server-wide. Any item that can have a tag has an x% chance to drop as a tag.

Thanks for the info s0rc and ghost. It just seems I'm having a touch of bad luck drop wise. Taking a small break from knuckle for a few days to work on my swordie so hopefully I can hit the knux farming with a fresh head and have some better luck, the grind can get depressing at times lol

Mobs from eb up pretty much have all the same drop file you're better off hunting a normal path and get lucky or get a different decent weapon and trade.
