Guild Wars 2

This is pretty much a direct question to ANet. Dry Top and Silverwastes enemies are going to be dropping Portal items to get into open beta. My issue here is the “drop” part. Dry Top has plenty of enemies to farm loot out of. Silverwastes? Not so much. The news page only says “drop from enemies” so I’m assuming this won’t be taking the mission success rewards or the Bandit Chests into account. Majority of the enemies that pop up there (e.g. just about every enemy tied to an objective) drop no loot. Will that be adjusted for the portal drops at least?

Because if the majority of enemies aren’t even going to give me the chance to get a portal, then I might as well go to Dry Top. (I can feel the cluster lag already)

Same question… 90% of enemies in Sw don’t drop loot

Two things that wasn’t said in the blog was if there will be a limited number of these drop and when the mobs will start dropping them.

I’d like to know the approx time it goes live, when it ends, etc. Also, if its monsters that usually drop loot, or if fort defense monsters should be ignored.

ya know, questions thats aren’t answered in the FaQ

“Starting tomorrow, April 28,”
So tomorrow, it starts. I would just look for when a patch happens and then get into either one. I just want to know which one is going to be more fruitful.

For that matter, does Magic Find apply to these drops, as with normal items?
Or is it effectively just a small static chance to drop?
