But am I able to get it, or not?
I can't get green
Limu Tolkki
I've been killing necro boss Jerneh Nightbringer. Ii've killed he about 20-30 times and I haven't got The Nightbringer yet... I can't kill him while he have 2 or 3 elementalist friends (thats about 1 of 3). So I've been thinking that what about if I can't get this green if there isn't those elementalist friends...
But am I able to get it, or not?

if you are with hench they can steal your drops, if you come up with a build that can kill him 1v1 then you could use your hench to kill his group, then send your hench away until their grey on party list, then solo the boss... hope that helps

IIRC, the odds of a boss dropping his green thing are 1/10 normally. These are general odds, so individual results will vary. I don't know the specifics of that boss, but maybe the program is set so he only drops it when with the elementalist buddies you speak of?
Of course, if you're using heroes or henchmen, they're getting drops, too. Maybe the green thing has dropped a few times but been assigned to AI. When things drop for the AI, there's no mention of it on the screen and you don't see them pick it up - it's simply not there.

Always soloing, I dont understand why it don't drop it in 20-30 kills except it drops it only with those eles, I've also kill it if theres one ele, but 2 or 3 is too much 
Cow Tale
Anti Farm Code Maybe?

I solod the Scar Eater 72 times (no joke) before he dropped his green for me. THis was after I'd taken my Ele through Elona so there really can't have been any anti-farming code applied. Sometimes you just get really REALLY bad luck!

- Drops are random
- Who has the Favour of the God DOESN'T drop rate - Can't believe some people still think it does...
- You Class doesn't affect your drop rate
- Soloing increases the chance of you getting drop, but the change of getting a green is still very very low.
- Over farming will activate the Anti-Farming Code
- Its all down to luck, not chance.

I found that if I was the same prof as the boss I would not get the green item from it (either primary or secondary)....so I might suggest trying it with a different character and then see what happens.....but that is just my bad luck.

Don't give him information which simply is not true.

Good god... read my post above.
Who has the favour has NOTHING TO DO WITH DROPS... NOTHING AT ALL!!!
The favour only effects UW/FoW Access, it doesn't effect drops.
Not gold, green, blue, white, purple or anything else.
Sorry but what you posted is 100% incorrect.

Green drops are random, so it just sounds like the anti-farm code has kicked in on you. My suggestion is to go and hit a few areas that you wouldn't normaly go into a few times then come back. That should take the farming code off. I hardly ever get the good green drops myself but almost always get the ones that no-one else seem to get, not sure if it is luck or if I am cursed.

Sending the heroes/henchies away DOES NOT take away your green drop
Gold coins - yes .. they still share amongst the party
If the green drops and their name is greyed out, YOU get the green
I've done that a few times based on the run it takes to get to the boss.
In fact I've been playing around with E/A solo and used heroes henchies to work my way to sharptooth (Sunward Marches) when it was clear, I sent them away, solo'd him and it dropped first try.
It's been proven / noted that sending them away where their name is grey'd out works just as if you went and solo'd by yourself without them
But yea, anti-farm code / bad luck is the reason something doesnt drop after x amount of times.
I've done exuro 12-15 times and not have him drop. I could come back after a half hour / hour and he'd drop first try.
Nightbringer hasn't dropped the last 5-8 times I've tried.
Ghial and my first time W/Mo build, 4 or 5 times and he hasn't dropped it.
Mind you, it takes a hell of a long time W/Mo style .. so if it takes 8 - 10 minutes, I do it once and say screw it. ...
Skybringer took about 5 tries (Practice)
Mindcluder hasnt in 4-6 tries (Practice)

I got the green the first time I ever came across the boss, stocked up with hench. I didn't like the green and I didn't think it'd sell compared to the Ghial's staff, so I dropped it in a random PUG and watched them scramble over it. However, when I was trying to see the green of an assassin, it took me days to get that green. Patience really is the key. It's never a question of "if" but "when".

death fuzzy
people try too hard.
I've only farmed one boss for a green and that was geoffers bulwark
And one time on the way to get sunreach, i got a kyrils fervor, but no luck with sunreach
Just recently i found a green dagger while questing in a full hench party and a while ago i got the nightbringer while farming points for sunspear general.
it all comes to patience and randomness
