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.

iRO could give a 1000000% drop event and they'd never get that many people on. We honestly get too it too easy from iRO.

You make it seem like we WANT this server to be easymode.
If you actually look at threads regarding TI's, you will see how (the smart) people don't agree with how easy getting to 150 is with these TIs etc.

Why won't iRO implement the same anti-bot system here in North America?

because kRO uses their SSN or w/e it is, the equivilent of your social security number i guess. That way, if you bot, they know who you are and can take legal action.

Can't work with iRO since iRO serves multiple countries.

Not everyone does, but a lot of people do.
You still see topics by posters asking for drop events and xp events (etc.).

Turn ins are an option for leveling up.

If people want to use that to level up, then do so but don't complain that it's too easy to level up with TIs.

If people want to level up in a challenging way, then don't do the TIs. Simple as that.

The "smart people" you are referring to is not so smart afterall.

Don't spoil the game for us noobs who no one wants to party with. :)

That's like saying you can walk to work when you have a 15 mile commute, technically you can, but why would you want to?

Ask the players who whines/complains that Turn Ins makes leveling up too easy for them.Ask them not me.

You can still get exp points even after Lv150?

Dang... then gathering exp points as an RG is endless task for Inspiration to work.

Ohhh Great! Thanks for the negative one reputation IronPlushy. (sarcasm)

I think it's only too easy when you have BM's+VIP+simple TI. A trifecta as such would make it too easy. If exp was doubled, NOT ON TI's, but monsters in general, then I'd be comfortable right now, but I'm doing the eden hunting quests and its slow going. finally got to 76, keep in mind I dont have zenny, gear, hp/sp pots, was hunting undershirt while doing sphinx eden quest, and I don't think they drop anymore.

You make me want to go power levels over 9000.


also.

Undershirts do drop--I know that for sure :\
I got one a month ago in Sphinx (2 of them)
1% drop rate isn't too horrible

Compare to Diablo 2 where the drop rate of a Zod rune is 1 in 2,500,000 from a Hell Bovine in hell difficulty, 1 player game.

Just 1 server on Old Republic has more than entire kRO population.. lol


But again, further evidence iRO GM's are just slandering kRO by pushing blame on them for everything bad that happens on our servers.

B> Transfer to kRO please.

I got 10 falchions and 2 stilletos and an undershirt never dropped, it's easier just to raise the money for it, just raked in 100k from blossoms

Agree to you IronPlushy. Some items are easier to acquire through buying instead of grinding and waiting for the item drops.
