Selmaaa I was right there with you, averaging 10-15 an hour at a very nice kill rate to boot. I did much better yesterday, I may have got as many as 50 in 1 hour. However I tried going somewhere different, using a different char, and technique. Keep trying things, and locations perhaps.
Happy 10th Anniversary Roserians!

hmm but if it requires a high lvl on lower lvl map and certain spot for getting that many then things should defenitly change. :S High lvl = faster kills = faster clear of map = gets fast crowded = slows down process in long run, cuz all it takes is 3-4 high lvls on lower lvl map to keep it clean from mobs :S

Okay everyone, I can see that there are still issues with the duckies being obtained. We'll be taking a look in to adjusting the rates again to make it more enjoyable to obtain because, yes, we did set a high goal for you all to obtain. To be perfectly honest, we didn't expect this big of a participation response from the community all at once!
So, what will be changing with our next server restart:
- We'll be increasing the current method of drop rates to almost double their current rate.
- Additionally, we'll be making drop bonuses have an impact as well. (Most events do not run off the drop system, so this will be new to see how it unfolds.)
So the following bonuses will impact duckie drop rates:- Extra Drop Chance
- Epic Item Drop Rate

I'm averaging 90 an hour Leo.
The rates are fine, I think people just haven't figured out better methods!
- However, it's so densely populated, and many cannot kill at the rate I do nor know where I do. I can understand the change.

Even looking at the rates players report, as well as what are actually being obtained, it's a bit on the lower end of expectations. I know the event runs for 30 days, but I don't want it to take that long to do everything. Yes, we wanted a decent investment and effort to go in to it, but the effort and reward should feel comparable and rewarding, even I feel like it's a bit more effort than it should be for what rewards await me.
So, a bump up with next server restart, and we'll see how it changes things.

Lol thank you. Because we need to get some people to complete this and stop farming it so that others have a chance

I think thats very selfish of you. Just becose you found some secret way of farming them they shouldnt change, what about rest of community ?
Imagine if everyone was farming at spot u were and killing the same speed u were then ur 90/h would be lowered by tons!
its an event that should be enjoyable by everyone and fair to everyone in obtaining them, its not some mystery that we are supposed to solwe.
Most fair would be removing its droprate for high lvls so they cant go to low lvl map and grind there while low lvls and new players are trying both to lvl up and farm at same time!
Anyways, Ty Leo once again for increasing the rate on upcoming restart, it will be highly enjoyable by everyone with duckys droping more then what they are doing now!
also once duckys droprate is increased finally those like jagz that found a secret way and are milking people for zulys will be lowered to yey for Rose economy =)

its not an attack towards you, i m just saying just becose YOU personally get 90/h while rest struggle they should leave it as it is, doesnt that sound selfish to you?

Despite being interested in it, I'm not going to do the event. Event's make me typically think of fun and gathering with friends for some light hearted mini games or something. Not mindlessly grinding for weeks to get the items. Hard pass, no thanks.

As i said, the problem is maybe not the drop rate, is that you can only farm those ducks at Birth island....
Why dont you try to open them to more maps and even at dungeons??...if the goal of the event is to make us enjoy it and invest time to obtain the rewards, i dont know another thing than playing (lvling, running dungeon...even farming those ducks on spots around your lvl with some friends....)....rather than compete against a lot of ppl in just one laggy spot...where chars with better equipment (like aspd on gun bourgs or stat buffers...) have a significant advantage against newbies......

then people will using auto bot everywhere to farm it .... without people notice ...
i saw like 10 party botter in a day in birth island .... every single day
so i do not agree with that brilliance idea of yours

What about dungeons??....
My point is that if this is event is about fun, then it should not be a competition against each other, with some having advantage with better equipment and stat buffers.....the Birth Island should be only for the quest, and the ducks at dungeons (even in open maps, I guess GMs know where are the common places to bot, so a dailly check on those spots would solve bot problem....)
Any brilliance idea you have to encourage more ppl to do quest and farm duckies?

I went and got the costume because I wanted that and it wasn't to hard to get.
But considering I don't have much time to play lately I still find 90 per hour somewhat on the low side and personaly I think the drop rate should be way way higher for the 1 time event so more close to 150-200 per hour because U would need all 750 duckys to collect every 2nd prize and that would be just for one charather so....

I'm stuck at the 2nd part of the Rubber Duckin' quest. I can't get any stale mana jam with my 230 champ. Does that mean I can only complete the quest w/ low lvl characters?
