    Honestly I would prefer they just go ahead and lie about 8-14 cause the last thing I want is people killing everything slower for 1% drop increases.

    More, faster, with 8 is better than less, slow, with 12-14

    Could you tell us how TH1-4 contributes to the increased drop-rate of an item? Could you compare this to Treasure Hunter levels 8-14? At the very least, if you could tell us if each level of TH is a uniform increase, that would be a huge help.

    My guess: Is each Treasure Hunter level a "roll" at getting a certain item with a %-drop rate to appear in the treasure pool? i.e. TH8 is 8 rolls at item with some-percentage drop-rate to occupy a slot in the treasure pool?

    OR

    Does TH1-4 contribute to an increased change of said item dropping? Does TH8+ further increase those chances, but considerably less than TH1-4?

    Thank you.

    Frankly if TH is the only reason to consider allowing a THF in content, then it better be getting a good balance update soon.

    I'd like to see other people say if THF is really as bad as these people are implying. Or is this purely about slowing down deliberately to proc higher levels of TH?

    Have you never seen people get totally naked except TH gear and fight KB. I have. They turn a 60 second fight into a 20 minute wtfshow. Ignoring the fact that TH does nothing for Dring, what they're doing is absolutely unacceptable. There is no excuse for that.

    Most of the time, THF is strictly brought for TH. They aren't exceptionally sturdy, or powerful (theyre fine, just not exceptional) and the "enmity master" role they're supposed to have is VERY lacking.

    Your example isn't a very good one- That's just being lazy- it doesn't say anything about THF's actual usefulness (or lack thereof).

    Again though, if that's actually the problem, then it's something that needs to be addressed in a balance update.

    Hi SE, if it's not too much trouble, can you answer Gwydion's question and help us understand the differences between lower and higher levels of Treasure Hunter?

    Wasn't it previously explained that more treasure hunter basically means more rolls for drop slots that aren't fixed?

    How am I derailing this thread? If anything, trying to accuse me of this and engage me is more of a derail than talking about treasure hunter in a treasure hunter thread. But maybe I'm crazy here.

    Perhaps next time you shouldn't derail a thread by accusing people of derailing threads when they haven't.

    Because "bumping" a thread that's already at the top of a forum section ever did anything.

    Don't you think it's a bit hypocritical to complain about what you think its an off topic post (even if it isnt) when you then proceed to make a post yourself that adds nothing to the thread?
