Nerfed Xmas EQ ?

[AmanoMai]

so I'm not sure if it's just me being unlucky but
the xmas EQ after maint feels like:

- Dio Hunar's phantasm stone drop rate has been lowered

- Reduced Double spawn rate

- Reduced Apprentice spawn rate

- Increased Falz Angel spawn rate


what about you all?

[Zarixx]

Feels the same to me. If any thing, I got a lot more Apprentices and Dios overall in my five runs for today than I did with all the previous Christmas runs I did.

[HentaiLolicon]

just your horrible luck, dio hunar seems drop more cali for me, double/appr are way too many, and Angel...fuck it, it's just trash mob. Well, if scrubs in your MP fail to keep up with others and fall behind, it will mess up spawn also

[sparab]

First week 0-1 dio (3-4 ares stones), 10+ double, 5-10 oldprentice, 1-2 hunar/angel
After 3-4 dio (2-3 ares stones), 5-10 double, 5-10 oldpprentice, 3-5 hunar/angel

[arkeido]

Still getting Double 80% of time and Dio still generous with ares stone, 0 angel though.

There's more PatTea spawn on bottom left though (almost always appear with boss).

[AmanoMai]

First week 0-1 dio (3-4 ares stones), 10+ double, 5-10 oldprentice, 1-2 hunar/angel
After 3-4 dio (2-3 ares stones), 5-10 double, 5-10 oldpprentice, 3-5 hunar/angel

seems like what's happening to me
except it's only 1 double not 5-10


though like everyone said that might just be my bad luck

[wefwq]

I dunno, though today i feel really lucky.
Dio literally on every corner, each bear 3 phantasm stones and 0~1 nero.
Apprentice spawnrate was, average.
Double and Angel rate seems to be lower than usual but that's probably because of repeated dio spawn, and nyau spawn.

[KLMS1]

Don't think I saw much else THAN Dio, Double and Apprentice today... (Obviously not counting random crap along the way like Codotta at the central crossing.) With random Angel and Falz Hunar also dropping in.

RNG being RNG.

[dr apocalipsis]

I would have said that Deo spawn was lowered greatly, but I got 5 spawns on my last EQ for just 11 Phantasmal stones. Thing is, they only drop 2-3 Phantasmal and nothing else, while they used to drop 5-7 mixed stones before.

Then, Neros and Calegulas are wiped from my drop table. Got 2 neros on last full 4 EQs and 0 Calegulas.

[SolRiver]

feel the same RNG just being RNG.

Speaking of which, I got 2 13* to drop in 1 quest earlier =D (twin gun/ bow)

[Azure Falcon]

Definitely feels like it, I've barely seen Double in the last week, every bloody spawn is either Claris Claes, Apprentice, Angel or Idetta. One run earlier we ended up with 2x Angel, Elder, Baize into Gwanahda, Visbolt, 3x Idetta and 2x Apprentice, it was pathetic. Dio still shows up once or twice an EQ but I don't give a toss about him or his stones, may as well be yet another trash mob.

It's starting to look more appealing to grind enough 13* stones to trade for 26 daggers and feed them 1 at a time to my Dagger of Serafi rather than keep playing this quest on the off chance Double doesn't give me the finger each time their crystal explodes. That or grind 100 million meseta to pay for the obnoxiously overpriced 5% element boosters.

[jooozek]

i see code spawns messed up if trash mobs are left unattended

[pkemr4]

Sega totally doesnt stealth nerf guys

[TaigaUC]

Was the same to me, except Gryphon appearing even less than before (ie. not at all).
Damn Gunne and Anjudoriri or whatever should go home.

The last 3 - 4 EQs of Xmas 4 I tried were like 90%+ Double and not much else.
A few Deos that gave me about 2-3 Ares each. A few Apprentices and a ton of Hueys.

[Dnd]

its just RNG

someruns before this update i had 3-4 dio in a run and 12 ares stones. Otherruns we got about a trillion apprentice and that was it

This weeks been more of the same...

[ArcaneTechs]

RNG or Nerf, let block 01 decide

[Dammy]

3 Ajhadu in a row in same EQ, FeelsBadMan

[Vatallus]

I feel it was nerfed personally. At least the map's hidden drop rates. Only getting about 15-20 10*+s per run now instead of 40ish.

That said the ECs could just be bad rng but I've been seeing a lot less Falz lately. More gryphons on my end but less Falz. Deo Hunar also only dropped me 2 stones instead of the usual 3-5.

[Dammy]

jokes aside, i think they nerfed present boxes

[ArcaneTechs]

jokes aside, i think they nerfed present boxes
not important

[dr apocalipsis]

They are, since I still need Deband 17.

Regarding drops, boosted week is over. Don't forget that.

[LonelyGaruga]

Christmas probably feels nerfed because we just had a 100% rdb week.
