Hey guys! Let's talk about unlucky farming sessions. Share your experiences!
We've had way too many stories of luck and success and we all know that's the minority.
We also know drop rate is so horrible that even 5 star luck won't help. Aaaand this game's RNG is evil.

Yesterday went 700 kills with 5star drop at Wizaleon, only got one Mage Garb, no ability :/ The worst for me was back in beta. 2200 kills at Blaiard and the crystal never dropped.. this was before fortunes, tickets or any other method to increase drop rate existed though. |

Oh the woes of drop rate... In later half of 2012, FG was the most over rated xtal for HW and I almost did about 3k kills over a 7 day period refusing to come out of False Gracia map. Had many additional equipment drop but never an xtal. Solve rod was a dream weapon for all mage class and farmed Bossheit for about 20+ days without a drop. Never could do more than 50 kills in a single login session. It took me more than 4 months before I had a drop. Till then priest rod was the weapon that I had from so many ATG runs. Ganei when I started my ninja was another tough drop. My guild mate Ninjen took pity on me and helped me to farm (translation - she gave her drop free to me). More than 7 days of farming without any luck and so many kodachi drops. During the last christmas roll back - i lost about 8 ganeis which i had farmed during the 5* drop days. Though it was restored a couple of months down the line, i never farm Ganei that seriously anymore. Metalbrow for the exelis upgrade was a similar story too. Maelrial, cheltil, raton, dajarte, tarna, - in spite of so many days of farming as soon as they released (typically the time when you get a easy party to farm) - I have never had a drop. Moldus was the only boss who was kind enough to drop an xtal on my MQ run itself (when i did not even know of the stats or how good it was for a HW). Recently I wanted to farm a Mezzaluna for a guild member and could not get the xtal but had more than 140 zirconium, 8 stacks of silver armor bits, 20+ hairpins - which were sold in rokoko to buy an xtal. To make things worse, i have friends like Jhaleel7 who can show off about 20+ two slot weapons  Edit: FG was released in 2013 and apologies for the wrong mention. Thanks Famine!!! |

Around 1 week of boss colon farm (around 1k kills per day x 7days) before xtal drop. Then I stuffed my gears with currones and it dropped every single day without fail for around 5months (2 to 3 xtals on the regular).
I put my faith in currones and never looked back.
My old personal record after that is 9stacks before xtal drop, which became 16stacks just recently at a hopefully very rare occasion.

Just wondering, was that 16 stacks in one session? Or did you farm some for a few hours...left for awhile...came back to farm some more...
Cuz i never leave boss map unless i have to, i think stuff is easier to drop if you farm it all at once(in one farm session)

Cuz i never leave boss map unless i have to, i think stuff is easier to drop if you farm it all at once(in one farm session) 3 sessions. I dropped xtal on 2star, then nothing for 3stacks, next day 6stacks 4star, then next day 7stacks 4star before it finally dropped. This is actually more than 16 stacks because I didn't count excess kills that didn't make a stack. I usually count like this so if I kill and get xtal in the first fight I know it took more than 1 try to get the drop since I farmed stacks yesterday before it happened. As far as my experience I don't think farm session count makes it any easier to drop. Although I do farm the same boss for long periods. |
