What is your character name in New World: Tedmund
What server/world did you experience your issue on: Orofena
Describe the issue you are experiencing: Mozrul the Herald continues to drop low gear score items 500-580 range despite being changed to LVL63 in the recent summer update. Named items like Bloodbane Reaver, Herald’s Finger Curse, Herald’s Signal Fire (and others) are not dropping in the expected 590-600 like other world bosses that now are LVL63. Trying to farm this guy for drops is frustrating when you finally get the item but its at the incorrect gear score. Please investigate and fix his loot table.
Is this a bug or an exploit: Bug
(if a bug) How did the issue effect your gameplay: Unable to obtain named items from Mozrul the Herald at proper gearscore.
(if a bug) Were you able to recover from the issue: Unable to recover
(if a bug) Please include a screenshot or video of the issue that you have experienced:
What are the steps to reproduce the issue as you experienced: Go farm Mozrul the Herald in great cleave and check the gearscore of the drops you receive
When did this happen? (Date and Relative time; please include your timezone). 8/6/22 all day and is an ongoing issue
All mobs bump to lvl 63 have this problem. I tried farming some of them (two ancients in Shattered Mountain to be precise) and after failing (GS of drops was way below what it should be) I talked with people and they have same experience with other buffed bosses. It’s bugged and AGS probably won’t do anything because in their minds topic is closed. You can try @ some mods, maybe just maybe it will ring some bells but I have little faith in that.
@Luxendra@Aenwyn Can you let us know if this is intended behavior? Are the mobs that have been increased to Level 63 supposed to drop their named items in a wide gearscore range (ex: 500-600)? Or should they be dropping only in the higher tier bucket such as 590-600 if the player’s gear score qualifies?
I don’t think it’s working that way. A level 63-65 should always drop 590+ based on your expertise being maxxed 600, but apparently that isn’t working, specifically the new mobs that were “level bumped” to 63 in patch 1.6
Thank you for responding. Then this definitely is bugged. I’ve gotten numerous drops in the low 500s despite my expertise being maxed. I’ll try to grab some video and screenshots as proof but you should be able to see the data on your side. As was mentioned by others in the thread it seems only the max range of the GS drops has been updated with the change to make these mobs level 63 on these world monsters. But somehow the minimum gs was not updated properly. So now we’re getting quite a giant range of gs drops from them instead of the expected 590 to 600 gs.
There’s a chance to drop 590-600 but it isn’t guaranteed to drop that range. I’ve gotten the drops from Baines and other monsters at 590+ so it is possible.
It felt like this was really working, in the PTR. But on live, it seems like it reverted back to what it was before. (Specifically on the bosses, Daehi in general for me)
I have a bag full of green 504 items that keep dropping when i have 600 expertise. There are several instances on bosses like these that do not seem to drop like they did on the PTR. (Maybe it was adjusted on purpose, i don’t know)
If this is a bug, are they bumping the GS of previous drop. I really want to know if is worth it, keep farming the Blight Bringer or I can just wait for the update I spent like 4 days farming for 1 ring drop so far.
The only boss that seems to be able to drop gear according to our expertise seems to be the boss in Ebonscale that drops the Ephemeral Seal. I’ve gotten a few 590+ items from him, but I still from time-to-time get like a 515 named item.
I can farm Mordici the Mortician for an hour and get 5-6 of his named items. Yet, I’ve farmed Blight Bringer for over 50 hours at this point and have gotten ONE of his 500-600 items.
This issue occurs with the ambusti inferior and superior npcs as well.Even at max expertise there is a high chance of those items to drop at 540ish.Lowest gearscore drops so far i was surprised was an earring from Baines that dropped a 504 and 509 with my expertise being maxed.
This is T4 named item, it can drop max on 500gs, you will never get 501+ gs on this spear even if your gearscore will be 15000. Wildwood Spear - Item - New World Database
I made a support ticket but ags is trying to tell me that im wrong and its fine that the Monster is ignoring my expertise ( they have send me an email). I have made some examples in the thread but some players in my thread are also trying to tell me that im wrong but i still believe im right and its just bugged.
Take some minutes pls and read the discussion in my thread if you like.
Thanks for sharing your separate thread. I agree this is confusing on the intent which is why we asked for clarification from the devs. Perhaps the distinction between level 63 and 64 is the caveat here. I need to do more research to understand if that part is correct.
But I do not understand the intentions of the developers to give these mobs a small chance to drop 590+ gs. I doubt i or any other gs 625 folks are going to farm these guys for weeks or months if the chances are that low. It just doesn’t make sense…
many items had their higher end GS bumped. I was relaying the point that nothing specific from the blightbringer seems to drop at 600 even though he is lvl 63.
