Hello

Although this may just be me and my friend I think it is an important issue to address. In the last few months me and my friends will go into the Underworld and try to beet as much of it as we can. We are not aiming to beet everything, but just as much of it as we can. Being an endgame (Ish) place one would think that we would get decent drops. Instead we are having competitions to see who can get the most Demonic remains, the winner usually receiving 25-30. I know there are really good drops that drop once and a while, but I would just like to see a little bit more than just Remains and Piles of Dust.

Maybe this is just me, but i would like to have a few more rarer drops in an endgame area.

drops are crap most of the time, however the area itself isn't hard either

Understandable. Also looking for opinions, it's not like I've been in there one or two times. And i have gotten some good drops, it's just would like to see things like gold armors or even purples. (Although I do have a history of getting lots of purple hammers.)

Yes yes UW should drop things like
- Candy for life - exchange 100 of them for a bag of candy. Anet will send it to your house online

- Trip to the UW - exchange 7 stacks for for a ticket to Hawaii - Anet will do online as well

- Chick on the bath - no need to explain

- Jesus lover - Anet will send a jesus statue to your house

Such and such. Wat do you think?

UW does drop good drops... however, the drop rate is extremely low... and rightfully so. UW drops ecto... which is a guaranteed 4k+ (depending on how many bots you are competing with... lol). I don't know about you, but I get more excited about ecto dropping than I do about a gold uninscrib req13 stormbow... trash.

Ecto FTW!!!

Uw drops nice stuff but i sorta agree that if it's gonna be "endgame mission" it should drop a little more highprofile weapons. AKA, put some new f'in skins in there. Ghostlies Storm Bows Chaos Axes Shadow anything... None of it is worth too much anymore unless it's r8 15^50 non insc. Get some new skins that are Tyrian style no insc!

Hey, demonic remains are sold for 60g, quite a cash for a single drop...
...dropped in Maguuma, XD.

I bet they changed the farm code so the more people go to a place, the worst are the drops.

Try somewhere else to test that.

no it isn't

I certainly agree UW doesn't yield that much loot for being an 'elite' area

the UW end chest does yield some nice gold tho

Imo its only an elite area because it is the only place that can drop ectos besides the uw in the tombs.

It has some specific skins but these also drop in other places. If it didnt have ectos hardly anyone would go there anymore XD

That's because the drops in the realms of the gods are core.

They should give them some unique sets dropping only there.

Incorrect. Ecto drop in FOW when you kill banshees.

You dont play a game without first learning and studying the game code.

This is a true fact. There is a farming code in place. Drop %'s are measured and randomised when players enter the maps. So there is never a bad run unless your drop % is .03 then yea. Dust and remains all round. My guild studie's the mechanic's of FoW and UW on a constant basis and we choose the good days to go farming. Don't believe me? Join my guild and find out.
