I must have missed the whining forum when I was flipping through. If there isnt one, this really doesnt have a place.

Not many people want farming, but the ones that do are very vocal about it. And there is pleanty of high level farming already...and just because you cant complete a run doesnt mean its nerfed.

Perhaps you got nerfed...because i can do all that fine.

Perhaps the elite missions are meant for the challenge and not the loot...

And personally, I've found the drops have drastically improved as I played through factions normally and when I've stopped to faction farm the repeatable quests. Not to mention my other areas seem to have significantly improved as well when I play through them every now and then.

Well, there's a 99.9% chance no one will understand what you're talking about. There's a 100% chance your title doesn't match your post. Only .01% of people will sympathize with you, but 100% of that .01% will sympathize because they feel sorry, not because they understand. Between 99.1% and 100% of the mods will delete this thread because 3.14% of the community will not care to read and/or post here.

I've "farmed" 200k just by going through factions once...

I'm not even sure what the hell you're crying about.

Lets just make every monster drop 1 million gold, then everyone can have everything and everyone can stop crying about money. It turns out you can get a full set of max armor for about 15k, it's true, I've seen it, materials and all!

Oh boy is that math up there flawed. Makes a lot of assumptions, like a garunteed drop from every mob in order to reach the 8%. Not to mention even with those assumed values to get the 5%, it's not as simple as 8%-3%... but .. oh why bother?

The second post puts forward a good idea though. There isn't a whining forum, but perhaps there should be one? Then messages like "I'm a Farmer, I'm not getting enough stuff fast enough" could be moved there. And it could be made a rule to post all such messages there. Oh how quiet the Riverside Inn would be after that, no?

Stop lying, it's a well known fact that people who cry about everything can't actually read.

So if I understand this correctly, you wish for them to put the removed exploits back into the game so that you can make money easily again? Yeah, that'll happen.

And for the record, all drops have considerably improved. Formerly expensive weapon upgrades are more common now, even Superior Absorption runes drop like Red Iris Flowers now (slight hyperbole). And for the most part this is great, it gives more people an equal chance.

Pretty funny though

Although it does get incredibly annoying when you do 100% more work than the rest of your team and get 500% shittier drops than them

And there's decent people that can't even dream of being invited to try an Elite Mission...

I had similar concerns, a more complete list of changes that this game needs can be found at this (closed) topic:

I already had an 8 % chance to get just A DROP, now take that about 5 percent less..I know have a 3% chance of getting a gold item.
This math doesn't make any sense whatsoever. . . You don't SUBTRACT percentages that have nothing to do with each other...

I was confused, until I went back and read the OP, which I skipped the second half of.

Would be nice, posting it in the Site Feedback forum.
