“The drop rarity of Rare and Exotic weapons from certain places in the world (champions, veterans, and players in WvW) has been increased. Rares and Exotics should be much more likely to drop and every champion should be guaranteed to drop loot. This was to ensure that world loot drops were not a significantly worse way of acquiring rare and exotic items than crafting and running dungeons.’

Are they joking or have they not implemented this properly yet….
Participated in numerous world events, champion kills since patch…the usual blue and green rubbish if that. Or more porous bones from Orr. Why bother?
I was actually thinking it was worth continuing to bother going to some events again after reading above quote in patch notes…seems not.
So back to levelling alts, the occasional run around Orr for ori and wood and hope to hell this game improves sooner than later.
One has to wonder the direction devs seem to be taking though. I just hope they don’t continue to follow NcSoft’s example with the Gem Store and thinking new content is going to ‘fix’ the numbers that have already left.

Same feeling my dude. Im so tired of having a full mf set with sigils snd food just to drop porous bones off everything I kill.

Hands down my favorite thing about MMOs is magic finding. Hitting big mobs and bosses in hope of that one amazing drop.

Seems like Anet does not want this in their game. I wish it was the other way around because at heart im not a pvper, im a treasure seeker!

Yes after hours talking to old Gw1 Gwamm friend in vent last night, who stopped playing a few weeks ago, l’m thinking the frustration level is reaching a peak too.
Bored with levelling alts over the same grind cause l hate Orr drops, Dragon drops that don’t cover cost to travel there, porous bones and the same boring mobs over and over. So sick of OP risen maniacs on speed with spectral grasp and insane aggro ranges.
Not interested in doing OP dungeons, armor repairs and broken events when so much content is still broken since release so yeah, glad l’ve plenty happening in RL to keep busy. I’m playing less and less every day.

Anet. Read this. Its not just one players feelings. Its not just mine and his. Its almost the entire community that feels this way.

Porous Bone Depression. You will file bankruptcy because of porous bones. Please end this bullkitten.

I wouldn’t say OP dungeons, I do all of them everyday basically, except COE path 1 (bugged) and CoF path 1 (grenadiers OP) but other than that, seriously cut the kitten with these WP costs and having an MMO with the absolute worst chest loot EVER.

I had to re-read this after seeing a post apparently about Feb 28th patch update fixing ‘champions not dropping loot’ fix from Jan 28th update.
I could have sworn it was last year and so it was.
Anet you are writing misleading articles and here is the proof.
Also Colin J ‘promises’ champions will ‘most likely’ drop loot and some mention of blues. OH seriously, you’re pulling my leg. Spend half an hour killing some champion in Orr to get a blue. May as well throw us, the dogs, another porous bone! So LMAO when l read that! Good Joke!

How are you not paying waypoint costs for dragons? The Jormag chest gives at least 8 blues, which you can vendor for around 6-8 silver, the waypoint cost from Cursed Shore to Frostgorge is less than 5 silver.
