View Full Version : EP4 Drop Charts are incorrect?

I am convinced that the EP4 drop charts are incorrect.
Here is why:

Look at the ep2 Episilon rate. There are like 8 episilon in PW4. With both of these things in mind, I have never heard of someone get an epsilon rare.
I have definately killed well over 500 epsilons if 8 episilons is corect.

Now look at the saintmilion and girtabula rates. I have killed less saintmilion than epsilon and a bit more girtabula than epsilon.

I have gotten 2 girtabula drops and 2 saintmilion. Also, many other credible people have gotten drops from these enemies.

I doubt that bad luck is the answer to this. It really makes me wonder.

Ermm, I get plenty of rares from Epsilon. It depends on the ID, really.

I don't remember your ID on the top of my head; what drops are you questionning?

The drops have range, in most cases, I chose the worst-case scenario.

If you want the ranges, Tycho kept them.

There are 9 Espilon in PW#4, and I got a lot of rares from it... in Viridia >_>

Blitzkommando found a Rika's Claw from it, and I know someone who found Secure Feet off it ;x

skyly and purplenum are the IDs that I mainly did PW4 with.

Besides V101 from a Zu I haven't gotten a single EP4 Rare, consider yourself lucky http://pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_wink.gif

I got a Scape Doll from my third Boota ever in normal. Heh, I don't know how lucky you would call that. http://pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif

It's always possible that ST altered the drops for Sante and Girtablulu and made them more common, I suppose.

Or would we know about that at all?

I've found a Rika's Claw from an Epsilon.

We'd know, they're supposed to announce stuff like that.

I've heard that BB Drop Charts are the only that were made by pure statistics, not by Game Database like the others (specially GC).
If I'm not sure who told me that was Chaos.

Well, they sort of are. Some of the Astark drops have been swapped around after people reported different findings though; and the only way to still improve the data on the drop rates is by either hacking the servers, or by doing loads of excavation runs.
