Drop rate increase for Damien and Lotus acc.

Hey guys,

As the title suggests I believe there needs to be a drop rate increase to specific item drops from certain bosses. The items I am talking about are as follows.

Magic Eyepatch (from Damien boss)

Berserked (from Lotus)

Papulatus Mark (from Pap)

Black Bean Mark (from Pink Bean)

Dreamy Belt (from Lucid)

Included Black bean, Dreamy belt and Pap mark as they have the same horrible drop rates for their acc. I have gotten a couple Black bean marks before but no Pap mark.

I and many others have been killing these bosses since Nexon made these items available from these bosses. We have yet to see a Magic eyepatch from hard Damien or a Berserked acc from Lotus. Drop rate increasing effects don't apply to these specific items ever since Nexon made changes a number of patches back. The drop rate is incredibly low and absolutely needs to be increased. Please Nexon bring the drop rates of these items to be more in line with the current Arcane gear drop rate. It is ridiculously low atm.

Out of all of GMS I believe there is only a handful of Magic eyepatches. Around 3-5 out of all GMS servers. I could be wrong but this is what I'm aware of currently. This doesn't have anything to do with the amount of groups killing these hard mode bosses. The drop rate is far worse than the Arcane gear drop rate and Absolab drop rate. I'm not even sure how many Berserked acc there are if any.

Please do something about it.
Thank you.

    At the very least tell us if it's affected by drop rate increases.

    We will suggest revisiting the rates for these particular boss items.

    TerrorStreak the dark boss doesn't need to a 1 in 10000 chance drop rate we don't need another Cursed Kaisuim item in the game Beatting these bosses is hard enough as it is but i don't think the buff should big either at least the drop rate % should effect the drop rate its very unfair for funded players to get locked out of this kind of gear for no good reason this game already has enough rng anyway we don't need an item that could piss off players at least with hard magnus you can at least do him twice a week.(With coupon) you can't do that on Hard Lomien.

    No it doesn't. We and many other groups have been killing the bosses for these items since launch and have yet to see a single one. That's already stupid. Why even have the gear in the game when barely anyone can take advantage of it? No other MMO does this because it simply doesn't make sense. It's not like they're amazing items either.

    Weren't you the same guy who was upset about the lv 250 LAB server block because you "work full time and have 2 daughters"? Doesn't this seem hypocritical?

    I could think of one game that does this exact crap (Grand Fantasia). It's sad to think about it too. This does (at least) deserve a bit of a boost rate for the item. Wonder if its the same as the papulatus item....

    They ought to be difficult to obtain, yes, given that, due to the set effect and base stats on their own, they're direct upgrades to the sweetwater eye and face accessories; they should not, however, be so difficult to obtain that you only see one in a year of clearing the boss.

    That's far enough.

    Just because someone has a different opinion about something doesn't mean you can shut him down in public with insults. And this is an argument about a virtual item on a video game. That's just sad. You should really apologize to him, as should a couple others in this thread.

    I figured you'd might want these: gnLJbC5.png 8Jcf5bZ.png

    But to be on topic: I agree, I think the drop rate for these things oughta be upped; Cpap is a complete nightmare to fight, I'd rather do it as little as possible.

    I'm pretty sure Black Bean Mark comes from Chaos Pink Bean. There's no "Black Bean" boss that I know of.

    On topic, yes these items should have higher drop-rate.

    Nobody insulted him though(saying whats wrong with you isnt an insult fyi),im just amazed and trying to understand y he doesnt want those items to be less rare, and if you follow a bit this guy you will understand my comment.
