Ember Bay karma after map buff?
Does magic find increase karma drop rates?
Never has, presumably never will.
Does diminishing returns reduce drop rates?
There are different types of DR.
- If you “overfarm” and area and DR kicks in, it affects all drops, including (presumably) karma consumables.
- If you get event DR, then all the rewards from the event are diminished, including xp and karma (and drops from any boss loot).
Is based off of a certain amount of kills to get a set amount? ( 7 vials in 100 kills but randomized?)
It’s random, like all drop loot in the game. With the karmic retribution, there’s a chance (two stacks: greater chance, three stacks: still more of a chance) of getting karma consumables, but everyone is going to have lucky and unlucky streaks. No guarantee that x kills will generate a minimum number of vials or other sized chunks of karma.
What technical facts would make farming these karma items more efficient?
- The more foes you kill, the more stuff that drops.
- The more stacks of karma retribution you have, the more karma consumables that drop (and with a greater chance of larger-sized drinks).
