This is their first +200% drop rate event ever! And damn their population rose a lot! their F2P main server Baphomet had a population increase of about 6x! And no it is not because of bots kRO has loads of anti bot features plus you need to submit your social insurance number to even play on kRO so they can pursue and label you IRL for botting. Not like the freedom of anonymity here in north america. <.<
It's not even a 3x drop rate but +200%, IE: with HE bubble gum and VIP it'd be (100% normal +50% VIP +200% HE Gum + 200% server bonus)*0.5 (yes kRO is 50% base drop rate!) = 275% drop. Comparing this to iRO's 2x drop events: (100% normal + 50% VIP + 200% HE Gum)*2 = 700% drop rate.
Hopefully this will show you guys how much iRO GM's are nicer than kRO ones, giving lots of exp and drop events. But Because of the frequency of these events you guys don't seem to value them at all. =/
IRO should just use +50~+100% events instead and keep 1.5~2x events for special occasions! Don't forget that +% Exp affects TI's and quests too! Encouraging more than just grinding. Plus you don't even need to modify TI's EXP and it reduces the "need" to use 3x BM's only on TI's.
Edit2:
OOPS XD Posted in the wrong section wanna move this to either community chat or fungineer's suggestions?
