Title: BA Drops?
Post by: Freeforall on February 21, 2011, 10:45:35 PM
I honestly think that the BA doesn't drop hardly anything. With my 99 STR, I always reach threshold, and the most I ever get is a dagger. I have been here for a long time and have mostly gotten gold. I think the drop rate should be raised if it hasn't already. Honestly, when was the last GOOD BA drop?

It's fine. 

Keep at it.

(I am really hating all of these posts complaining about drops/etc.....)

OK I have killed TONS of BA over ALL of my accs and have got 1 good fricken drop! I say that BA drop rates should be raised while the spawn rate should be decreased there was 3 of them at one time today O.o

No no no.. Just what igu said, keep trying and it will come. Ive spent level 9-67 straight at bandits and its not that bad. Messing with the rates will just help more noobs get an ultra rare weapon and piss everyone off lol.

Wrong. It is not "easy", neither is it "hard". It just depends on your luck, which you cannot modify apparently. Even if meiun would raise the chances x2, some people wouldn't get bc/spire in over 1000 BAs and some would get both items in 2 days, changing drop rates really doesn't help an individual person to get the drop. Making it more likely doesn't mean it will drop any time..

Considering this game most likely using game maker's pseudo-random generator and since game maker used a pseudo-random algorithm that lays out uniformly and assuming Meiun does not reseed it and assuming the game is coded correctly your guaranteed 100% that you will get a item. Assuming Meiun does not reseed it and if you knew the starting key you could do the math to find out how many random calls (most likely in the form of monster kills) it would take for you to to get an item.

Which is most likely the case.

Considering all Meiun has to do is type

randomize();


I'm pretty sure it resets.

Well if you read my post I said twice:
Quote from: ARTgamesand assuming Meiun does not reseed it
which it what you just have said. Non the less we both don't know if he does. And if we knew when and what it would not make a difference if he did. blaw who cares.

Does not matter any-who. My post was off topic.  ;)

It's fine. If you're able to get ANYTHING of value from it, it's fine. At least you're one of the (somewhat large as of now) few that HAVE a BA drop, so thus you have no room to whine. Get out.

I stayed there for a large portion of 91-99 and for most of my leveling to 100. I managed to get a spire but am still trying for a bandit cover. Just keep trying, you won't have any chance if you simply don't kill them because you are angry.  :P

Considering stick online is a game of luck and skill which is likely the case neither or not the case there should be other ways of obtaining items like from pvping in certain area.

This is what an old sage once told me : "S.O. 2 is an incomplete game that will not be fixed. If you are trying to fill your entertainment time with something that no longer entertains you. Either change your point of view or entertain yourself with something else. The base GOAL in getting entertainment out of S.O. 2 have never been hunting for pointless hours in hope for a drop.. thats what someone addicted to slot machines do, and its not good for you. The way to get fun out of it is to vary (or not, it depends on how much fun your having) what you kill depending on where people are and politely socialise and/or pvp for fun while doing it. As long as your either slowly raising your exp or having fun.. its all good. And for those of you who are level 100 already its up to you if you want to slave yourself at trying to get a rare drop but the very least you can do is DON'T COMPLAINT TO OTHERS/WHINE/TROLL because your not having fun while doing it. It's annoying, and as Igufed said earlier.. there are too many topics about drops not dropping."

This old sage was called Prosper and what he just said isn't strictly out to this topics creator but to all of you who create, or plan to create such topics.

EDIT : Having this approach while playing will only increase your :D whenever you randomly get a good item.
