I'm wondering if I've just been unlucky, or the HE gum timer is wrong when it gets near 0.

Two days ago I killed a valk rangdris with 22 seconds left of gum and it only dropped a bloody edge, helm, and valk shoes. (that's no manteau, no armor, and no flower)

Yesterday I killed a gloom undernight with 6 seconds left of gum and it did not drop OCA.

I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced subpar drop results after killing an MVP when gum is about to run out, or I was just unlucky?

Not sure about the Valhalla Flower and Old Card Album not dropping but even with HE gum, you won't have 100% drop rate for those other items anyway.

I've heard of this before.
Most of the time it seems that the timer on client-side can be off when you have logged/relogged during the time.
The server-time is the one that is taken into consideration when the kill takes place, so if you're 6 seconds off on client side timer, I believe it's possible your HE Gum had ran out, but the client didn't show it as such yet.

I believe this is what I was looking for, thanks.

Guess I have to use a new gum with <1 minute left.

Ten you have to delay your kill, the game made it such that in order to prevent accidentally double clicking you can't use 2 gums at once. So you will have to wait till the 1st runs out

Unless for gums is different, the delay isn't very long. For battle manual, the delay to prevent double clicking is only like one minute long, not the whole duration of the manual.

Hmm? There is a possibility that there is something wrong with the timers but for me, what happens is, If I hover over the buff Icon, it will go 10 seconds, 9 seconds, 8 seconds, then just vanish.

My experience is the opposite - its like I still get double drops 15 seconds after the timer goes out. o.o
