    Nynja, with the drop rates like this. What would you say is a fair price for a themis orb?
    If I don't get egg on my single orb I will have to buy.

    i just had a thought, you said "im not wasting my last 500 seals"

    lol,what the hell else are you gonna do with them, oh thats right, ksnm99's

    so basically what your saying is that you are mad that now, instead of fighting JUST the ksnm99 mob, you also get to fight a guaranteed fafnir, AND maybe a nidhogg

    i seriously fail to see how this is a problem

    My answer is pretty much identical to this.

    KS99 fight? WOWWWWWW, do you know what I've done with my drops so far? With the exception of the Behemoth Hide, Shining Cloth and items I cant sell to NPC, everything has gone to NPC, or put on AH cause I had space and its worth an extra 1-2k more on AH. You're not going to make money off KS99's now, not even the elusive Speed Belt is worth anything, except MAYBE to pld's and drks. But getting one of those is like getting a Kraken Club...raaare.

    So if the drop rate doesnt get adjusted, I'll do like I was doing with them before: keep them stored on Shami. Its not like I stored up 1200 KS for 5 years going "I have faith that SE's going to change kings into pop NM's". KS30's stopped being worth my time cause market changed, I stopped doing em. KS99's arent worth my time because the ultimate goal has a non-existant drop rate, I wont do em. Its not even like the gear kings drop (with the exception of D.Ring, and thats rare as F) is groundsbreaking anymore. Theres NO reason for the HQ pop items to have such a garbage drop rate!

    @Bumbeen
    I'm not good at gauging prices ,but heres what I can tell you
    1/3 Beard (Beard dropped on second)
    1/8 Egg
    1/5 Tongue

    ITT someone going 1/1 on a drop citing it as anything but luck and calling people with a sample size of 189 "idiots"

    Calling people with a sample size of 20 idiots also doesn't make any sense either. We aren't trying to find out the exact %, 20 is plenty enough to give you an idea of the droprate. It isn't going to suddenly jump to 40%+ droprate when you get to 1000 kills.

    Parrots. Slapping your keyboards without any idea what you're saying or why.

    Yes it is, duh...thats why you need a sample size of 1000, to weed out the obvious initial bad luck...

    Nope , especially with different Treasure Hunter procs and different NM mixed. It doesn't excude 25% for HQ king so far. 10% or 30% is a lot different and 20 sample size cannot distingish this.
