I was wondering about the drop rate...I got 2 pieces on first run, 1 on second, 1 on third, then ZERO for the past four runs!

Are there diminishing returns for it? Or do I need to run do a mission or something in between?

Considering I leveled a lvl 5 Koss in just under an hour, to level 20, I'm finding this event to be really fun!

Not only that...I'm totally pimpin' out my Heros with elite armor and stuff....so I'm actually really getting into it.


So it may not be the best weekend EVER, but for those who want to level their Heros twice as fast, and get cool armor doing it, this is the weekend.

The first few times you do a challenge mission it throws armor peices at you like their going outta style. Then after that you might never see another armor peice drop..

-------------------

Anyway, I have a few non-lvl20 heros...but double exp isn't a good motivator to get them up, as I already coulda done 1 quest with them to get them up - It isn't like they don't already gain exp much faster than you.

I've found it useful. My monk had four sets of elite armor to get for her heroes and she managed three Mysterious armor pieces in four runs, which is better than my usual drop rate. One more piece to go.

Double exp would be nice if I could be bothered leveling up heroes on my other chars, which I can't. Reasonable idea though, it helps some people.

Now all we need is a double LB point weekend.

In the same boat here. Brought a character with no experience at Dajkah, and no time spent farming. Three runs later... nothing. When I usually get around 2 armors on my first run with a character. Went to Shadow Nexus, got some armors but got nothing again when I got my personal best time. These drops for me are way below normal.

Maybe they really meant halved armor drops...

Killed more than 20lords and got nothing. But i played Remains of Sahlahja before with this char and got some armors there.
When i use characters, that haven't done other challenge missions, i get around 5armor pieces after killing 15 Guild Lords.

Brought a few unused Heroes along on Mineral Springs capping...they level up pretty fast when using scrolls.

Like it so far.
