Which is why I was trying to save up maps to trade them in for higher level ones, problem is I'm finding no maps and have run out completely. I figure the next thing to do before I run any is get as much quantity on my gear as I possibly can, 40% seems to not be enough.

quantity on GEAR or GEMS does not affect map drops.

quantity on MAP does affect map drops.

so use chisels on map, alch it after, run through it. Usially +20 alched map results in 3-4 drops.

save your alchemy and chisels for lvl 70+ maps. The mapd drops are fine as they are. Just play in small groups and "opener gets first map"-rule...


i was never out of maps

cheers

Agree with everything that's already been said. The other day I was doing quite a few 72+ maps. We even got to 2-3 77s. Since then, every single person I know has been reduced to maps under level 70. We barely find any maps now, and when we do, they're equal or lower ONLY.

There must have been a stealth change to cause this, because this isn't normal. I'm trying to put together a base pool of 20+ level 66 maps to try and gather data on map drop rates. It's rather annoying to reach end-game and be completely screwed. I understand that the game is in beta, but fixes to this problem are numerous and easy.. It almost seems like the devs intend there to be a huge barrier once you reach level 85+. Maybe they don't want somebody to hit 100 in beta? I don't know.
