"Latent Sunder Charms can drop from any monster, Terrorized and non-Terrorized, using Magic Find."

It will be possible to bot farm Andy or Meph and drop latent. So those busters who run 40 clients and smack Meph/Andy for 8 hours a day will be flooding jsp with it.

ty for the reply..... the Herald mobs should all have a chance to drop sunder. thats what I thought it meant when i was trying to figure it out. yeah making them in every TZ makes heralds kinda pointless. sure they can drop stuff, but the whole point was sunders. only the drop rate needed an adjustment. if theyre in non terror zones its even more retarded.

"The increased chance to drop a Latent Sunder Charm now starts at Heralds of Dread (Tier 2) instead of Tier 4."

Unfortunately I believe this is hard to calibrate as game dev. Is it too little, is it too often? Each person different opinion.

I believe this is something which you configure at the beginning of season, and mid/end season you see feedback/consensus from the player community and you move it up or down if people bitch too loud about it.

What else you can do?

Next Ladder they won’t be limited to Heralds… any MF will be able to find them. Bots will be eating good

It's gonna be flooded as hell bro, I can tell.

but then again doesnt bots farm mostly on LoD?

Great. PvP should be popping

If you don't bot, just accept that after week 1 of ladder, prices will plummet, and all the top tier items will be in competition with eachother.

Play early, profit and build a full character, or accept that bots will make things a lot more affordable for the 40+ hour work week, dad bod neck beards out there.
