59-63 Mobs have GS drop broken

I was reading the last update here: July release notes

Where I found this list of upgraded mobs:

  • Edengrove - Baines, Cael, Adjorjan
  • Old Myrkgard Forest - Unhallowed Soul of Myrkgard
  • Nihilo Visage - High Priest Oseguera
  • Balebane Maw - Articulon the Unshackeld, Mozrul the Herald
  • Caminus - Caminus Gate Lord, Overseer Levy
  • Spilaio Cavern - Tzi-Wang the Immovable, Dau-Shen the Unstoppable
  • East Illurmin - Corrupted Excubitor Luca
  • West Illurmin - Pit Lord Daehi
  • The Congregation - Mirepaw
  • Lambent Muskeg - The Blight Bringer
  • Maria’s Rest - Smoothbore Samuel
  • Ska Makogai - Thorn of the Heartwood
  • Serenity Monastery - Gnasher
  • Skysong Crypt - Ivan the Inevitable, Mordici the Mortician, Slayer Rosellen, Farley

All enemies now have a chance to drop items at +100 Gear Score higher then normal. Levels 59 to 63 have an increased chance. (The 600 max and expertise still apply to these rolls.)

I have farm them and most of them are not following the Expertise roll when the items are drop, also previously 63 the expertise roll is not working, for example The Blight Bringer I had farm it for DAYS ! and not just me Blight Bringer Drop

I have gotten the drop and check this out:

That was my drop really low GS, I wonder if this can be fix and verify if the 59-63 mobs are actually dropping according the expertise.

I would repost this under bug report, i too have had pit lord daehi drop nothing but trash.

He was dropping some nice stuff on the PTR, but on live it’s still 500-540 for most items.

I’m aware that some people posted that they CAN drop higher, but it’s a super low rate. On the PTR it wasn’t like that, it was more often than not an okay roll.

Looks like PTR was just a ruse. Just like “increased bumps from gypsum”. It seems not much of the patch notes are actually true.

They can drop 590+ it takes a little farming. I got multiple 590+ named drops from baines the other day trying for the sap. Make sure to have some luck gear on and the luck trophies to help with named drops.

Did it drop at 600 or are you also getting drops at 540?

Because there’s two mechanics.

  1. Mobs now have a small chance to drop gearscore at +100 your expertise.
  • E.g. if you’re 510 gearscore great axes, a mob has a chance to drop a GA at 600 gs. (when your range is actually 500-510, limited by your GA’s expertise)
  1. Mobs lvl 63-65 always drop 590+ gearscore if you’re maxxed expertise for that item type

#2 is the potential problem. A level 63+ mob should drop 590+ always when your expertise is maxxed

I got full luck set at 617 GS, Major trophies, 2 luck weapons with pearls on the whole set. Jewelry are with pearls and Luck 617 GS bags are 590+ with luck.

One drop in 4 days… From a mob 63 maxed Ring expertise at 625 and the dropped item was 543.

Explain it @Aenwyn @Player01

Since expertise update the release notes said mobs at 63+ should drop 500-600 and will be affected by the experience it means I should get the drop at 590 minimum

Bump

Luck doesnt affect GS

I’m losing my mind with Gnasher… I’ve been killing him for 50+hrs and the drops are all between 573 and 535… Is it supposed to be this bogus?

I hope it is … because the drop rate is really low and getting the drop lower than 590 is a pain

Yeah I went the first 3 days with no ironbark drops but like 15 weavers shirts. then after that i’ve been getting one or 2 drops daily but all at that 573-535 range. its the worst when you see it in the bag but then open it… =(

I did like 2 weeks of Blight bringer farm and 3 drops of the ring. The last one at 590… 1 gs lower and I quit playing
