    Possible Drop-rate Fatigue or Anti-bot Farming Mechanism?

    Hi all,

    I "feel" there is something about the drop rate. usually the first couple mobs, the item will drop like very easy, bomb ash for example. however, if you continuous kill lots of them, within 10, the drop rate seems go down very quickly even no drop for 8 kills.

    So, I did some test, but no test result XD It "feels" like the drop rate is more if I mix some skills/ ability than purely 1 shot monsters. Let me describe my feels here: XD you can skip if you don't wanna read.

    I was just farming bomb ash from L24-26 Drifting Dud... any spell of mine L50 thm can 1-shot it. Initially, some guy was kindly share the camp with me, but I was also politely only take 3-5 mobs in the edge. they all drop pretty nicely. However, I started getting nothing drop at all after the guy left max is 8 kills 0 drop. All the style was the same, I use thunder or aero one-shotted the bombs... but later when I use any skills like Parsimony > thunder or Excruciate > Aero then drop rate is still lower but at least it's 33% drop... If you wait a little then back to killing, the drop rate is no visually increase. However, if you don't one-shotted mobs, such as provok> kill it "seems" have higher drop rate...

    Anyone feels the same thing about the drop rate when farming? I hardly do these one-shotted farming before, so I didn't notice this... well at least earlier when I farm peiste Skins off L40-42 mobs wasn't like this...
