Map drop buffs
|
So if they budffed the droprate why am i getting even less maps now? have been mapping all day and 0 high tier maps dropped so basicly i am out of high tier maps now, got a couple of 77 left and i do mean only a couple but thats it, literaly 0 maps dropped.
But he at least they have fugly ass colouring now the very few i own that is. You know what is the most fundamental part of a game is? Its simple being able to actualy play the game. It's ok to be white

Yea, same.
I really hope this is just some error and there is no buff or it doesn't work properly. https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1407331/page/9 | |

RNG, just because they increased the drop rate dose not mean you can't get bad RNG and get nothing from a map.

There is a difference between having bad rng and simply having 0 drops nothing absolutely nothing dropped.
And getting nothing from 1 map is one thing mapping all day and getting o maps is another.

approx. 20 chiseled maps tested - nothing changed, maps still don't drop.

same
my sample size is small but still. pre patch drops felt and were better. btw that map tier concept is really a job half-way done and in a void (that is not making any map playable at any level) is just plain bs seeing Hall of Grandmasters as a tier 2 is just.. just.. wrong on so many levels.. tiers | |

I have done around 25 maps today ranging from tier 3 upto tier 12. I don't see changes in the higher tiers. I see less maps in the lower tiers! Normally if I alched a lvl 70 map it would drop on average 3 maps. Now i'm happy with 2 maps at best. I have had several alched low level maps without any mapdrops and that was previously an extremely rare situation.
The tier 12 map did not drop anything, but I can not say a lot about 1 tier 12 map. Maps in the 8-10 range seems to behave aronud the same as before. I hate the tier system so far. (Sorry GGG) I always use the tab key in the map itself to detect the level of the map. The tier value does not say a lot to me. Last edited by Kaw on Oct 2, 2015, 3:41:42 PM

At first the only difference I saw was: Instead of maps trolling me by dropping a map with the number 68 on, they were dropping maps with the number 1 on.
The 'tier system' change is just horrible. Now, as for drop buff. I did 11 hours solo mapping today on a lvl 99. Streaming, I had several people ask if I noticed the buff, at first, and for a few hours, I said no. But after a while, yes. Caveat being that I've seen better runs of drops pre buff, among the bad runs. So only time will tell whether what I'm seeing is a good run, a bad run, or average. But with the relatively small sample run of 11 hours, right now, there is a noticeable buff. Casually casual. Last edited by TheAnuhart on Oct 2, 2015, 4:31:41 PM

What did you expect? That they actually noticeably buffed map drops?
The system needs rework or a significant boost, not minor number tweaking. It sucked since 2.0, and the best map drops I got in 2.0 are still in the very beginning, before the first buff. RNG rules everything, and the variance is way too high for a casual player. The system itself sucks, and it will continue to do so. I have lost all hope. Remove Horticrafting station storage limit.

Makes you appreciate how blizzard gives you actual drop rates on end game items.
