Activate Defiant Drops

[provocating]

Anyone find a work around to get these drops rates lower ? I too like the idea of any mob having the potential to drop something, but 1% seems way too high. I can already tell from a week of killing that 1% global will be too high. Maybe .05 would be a good number. What about maybe a filler item that is nothing ? I guess that would not work either though.

You could "dilute" it. For example, if you have a lootdrop made up of a crude defiant bracer set at 1%, then it will have a 1% chance of dropping. Now if you add a ration or some other item to that lootdrop, then there is a 1% chance of dropping either one based on their pcts.

Ration 50%
Defiant Armor Piece 50%
Lootdrop at 1% means there is a .05 (half a percent) chance of dropping the defiant piece.

Ration 90%
Defiant Armor Piece 10%
Lootdrop at 1% means there is a .01 (tenth of a percent) chance of dropping the defiant piece.

That is how I understand it. I have a solo server so when a defiant drop occurs it usually not usable by my class so it is still rare for me to find one I can actually use. I also did the same with the Melee Augments and Gloomingdeep items since I dont use the tutorial.

In another post, the same thing was suggested. I think I am going to do that.
