did +10 city of sarn runs, no maps dropped. WHAT A SURPRISE


So you farmed for what 15 min?
map drops seem merfed outside of maps but insanely buffed inside of maps.
(compared to closed beta)

this is my observation.

Lol... Finding map was never a problem for me.

I only solo.

And these are the maps that I haven't finished, since I usually got at least 2 maps for a map that I did.




And yes I play solo, running maps 66+ with at least 150-200 Magic find gears. Also its best when you spend some alterations on those maps and get the Maze area, more Rare/magic mobs, etc... to boost your map drops.

Also, I have an executing skill equipped with Rarity and Quantity gems. That helps a lot too.

Simple as that :D.

Your MF does not affect map drops.

Pretty much.

Droprates right now seems tuned so that quite a few people get fucked due to bad luck. In any RNG system someone will always get fucked, but right now it sounds like a larger proportion of people than it should be.

The only thing in the game that increases map drops is %quality on maps and the total %bonus drop rate on maps. This is why doing harder maps is better.
I am glad there's a decent unison voice about this issue. It's been 5+ days now, no maps and I've just lost complete motivation. You want end game to be accessible not purely based on RNG. Or if you're going to have it RNG, at least make it higher on each level you gain. People are 15+ levels above non map content, and it's just a bit frustrating. Every level should perhaps add a 1% extra chance of a map dropping, I don't know, anything than what it is now.

Here's the update from the new maps that I got.

I only run maps 66+ and it seems that maps never run out for me.



Not sure why is it so rare for others, but for me its like this lol.

Maybe doing hard "blue" maps give a better shot. :/

Is the Map droprate affected by the party size?
I dont like the chaotic nature of 6 player parties, but i still run out of maps very quickly in a full party.

Now i got new maps and would like to do some of them solo, but i dont want to run out. can i do it or should i always go with a full party ?
