Just curious.

Haven't even found anything that has sold yet, which is fine with. I'm enjoying the game as I go, anything I can sell for fg is just a bonus.

Just wondering when you guys found your first.

Never have in reality, as I find something decent, updates killed the price already.

Not very long, check my blogs :P

That’s how good the drop rate used to be.

Edit: I should mention that it was in a time when everyone said that drops were shit. Drops were amazing back then and they are currently shit.

This,

I’ve found a few notable items long ago. I haven’t found anything recently but I’m also mostly just whistling.

How could the drop rate get any worse?

To Mr. Njaguar, who doesn't think there is a problem with the drop system:

I've done 80+ solo climbs since a couple of years back and the only item I've found was a 118%ee sword...

I generally end my solo climbs in the 80s since I like to complete any maze I started. How on gods green earth can I only find 1 x 100ee+ item during this? It's beyond me. Or wait, the drop rate has gone from what everyone thought was shit, to complete and utter trash. Bring back whatever it was during 2013-2014 ish, it was amazing.

Imo, the drop rate used to be satisfying. If you spent a lot of time playing, you would get something eventually. I used to get 100%ee items all the time, I think my personal best was 3 x 100+ee items during one solo climb and it was amazing. Now I'm stuck with barely seeing one in 80 climbs, and that's just not worth my time? A solo climb takes at least 6 hours, and while I'm not expecting to get rich from every single one, I do expect more than one x 100% ee item in 80+ climbs. If that is not reasonable in your opinion, then I will respect your opinion and simply not play this game anymore. It's a shame and I don't think there is anything else that I can add.
