I accidentally leveled up my death farmer to 65 a while back and it seems like I rarely get tier XIV drops now, but idk if it’s just Rng or if after 64 drops quality decreases. 🤨

Seems there is a drop off after 63..
I try to do most my shit between 58-63


I've found some nice stuff higher level than that. But the most 40-55 drops come from 58-63 IMO

I think they mainly get worse because you have to do stuff like using high powered abilities, going to town, etc...

If you are able to fight them the same, you probably can get drops the same. That's how it was when I pumped up my chars with pots, the 3 times I did it. Theoretically possible with really, really, ridiculously good gear too :evil:

And yeah.. LS is the only game I know of where the drops depend on how you kill, and not what you kill :P

Diablo 2 definitely had that too until they patched it, long time ago. Like for example, if you approached Andariel in a very specific way or killed her in 1 specific spot, you'd always get a SOJ.

I miss the chain kill that LS had before Paul removed it. It was a really fun challenge to see how far I can push my limit for better drops before I have to regen.

Should bring back a visible chain counter that persists through level-ups with no limit to put an end to deathfarming :evil:

Agreed! That'd make climbing past 85 way more fun and interesting and actually serves a purpose other than extra GPs.

Yeah! And climbing past 150 would also be way more fun and interesting and actually serves a purpose other than extra GPs.
