Updated monster and loot spawns in Sage Lands, Watchtower Coast, Frozen Forest, The Scar, Vulture Drifts, Snake Dance, and Ettin’s Back, and for quests Iron Horse War Machine, The Monk’s Path, and Seeking the Seer. Fixed issues with last week's update that could cause loot drops to completely stop for some players after repeated map entries, and substantially improved the loot system so that only the most extreme forms of farming will cause monsters to start to run low on loot. |
Im especially interested in how ANet is going to determine what "extreme farming." I'd rather not see something like lvl 24 mobs start to drop 30 gold, all white items, etc after a while. Anybody have any ideas or info about this?
Edit: This is just from a few tries at one of the ascension missions, but I seem to be seeing a lot more armor drops during the mission than I did with previous chars going through ascension. Out of 3 tries, I got 2 purple armor, someone got a gold, and about 3 other purple dropped. In addition, I got a purple bow and hammer. Bit strange....
