HQ king triggers

[Nynja]

another 7 faf pops, another 7 nodrops...

all with TH7+, no double abju drop, no N.Hd, but hey I got another Ridill?

Can I get some bloody feedback on this, because its getting absurd.

[Crimson_Slasher]

Ive yet to try or do this myself but i can say that if they intend to keep this system in place, they need to do one of three things.

A. Offer an alternate source to obtain the pop items for NQ/HQ
B. Lower the KSNM cost from 99 to 30/33 seals, or even 40-50, it would substantially increase one's chances to do this.
C. Raise the drop rate on HQ pop, possibly to 65%-100% Because as it stands, little of the loot, and abjurations are still worth using.

Even looking at this myself, i consider blackbelt, but at the moment i just want a wyrmal abj body, it looks really cool.

I just can't afford to blow my seals at these drop rates. People are selling the HQ pops for over 3 million Gil on Cerberus.

Haha, if you see one for only 3mil you should buy it. I sold a Sweet Tea for 9mil, and they regularly go for 7+.

14 Behemoth pops with TH10-11 and no HQ. There's some more sampling for you guys.

I'd buy them at 3 mil, Nid goes for about 8 mil on Carb (almost typed Gilga haha) and KB goes for about 15...IF you can find someone selling them.

Years ago we were fighting to get a single dragon everyday, and we considered ourselves lucky if we managed to claim once a week. The situation has pretty much changed, and if you are doing Kings is either for BB drops or for NostalgiaDrops. I helped on a lot of KSNM99, like a dozen Wyrms + a dozen fafnir, ten Horns + ten behemoth + 1 KB. I see HQ triggers selling for 10m on Ragna and KSNM99 pops for over 1m. It's okay to lower droprates of BB to actually EARN them, but wtf guys how is this REVAMPING old content if you have to fight against ridicolous Salvage-like droprates. It's OLD, let us do more Nidhogg, Monks are not even going to get their BB items 100% from it, so what's the problem <_<

I'm pretty annoyed that there was never a response to this. I feel like Tanaka snuck in and changed some code to keep his legacy of pain alive. I would also like to point out because I don't know if it has been mentioned but the double NQ drop rate from KS99s is just freaking terrible. Like 1-2% terrible.

Can add to the statistics
0/20 on Nidhogg
0/10 on Behemoth
all had TH7+

HQ pops are 10m+ on Leviathan, KB being the more expensive.

One shining piece of positive news out of this. 1/2 on Red Pondweed after blowing 2 mill on 2 Adamantoise pops. I had to take three THFs to SATA it to death though, TH10 each time. It simply didn't live long enough for us to proc any higher.

On the other end of the spectrum, it ultimately took 25 Behemoth pops for me to get an HQ.

Very much with Nynja at this point - I would apppreciate the dev's stance on this issue, because it seems this is an ongoing problem. Why is the development team so adamant about keeping the playerbase from realistically accessing kings content?
