Maps Drop affected by IIR & IIQ?

Just wanna know if the higher IIR and IIQ you got the more you get map drops?

Nope

thanks for the confirmation XD

A higher IIQ causes more item dropes which actually increases the map drop chances aswell.
IIR doesnt increase chance of getting more map drops, just theier quality.

So it's purely an RNG? No modifier of some sort?

Incorrect, IIQ does not increase map drops

IIQ does in fact increase map drops, with the one exception being the item quantity bonus conferred by increased party size, which is not applied (this is given as being due to the fact that a full party can all run a single map, so increased map drops are not necessary and could potentially inflate the number of maps that exist at any one time).


Edit: I could've sworn I read a dev post on this, but I can't seem to locate it. I may be mistaken.

the only multiplier to increase drop rates of maps are on maps themselves, the IIQ on the maps increase map drops on that map.
Your personal IIQ nor party play increases it any more

which is why having better quality maps, while harder, reward you better with more maps and more consistency

They once did affect drop rate. Then CB testers and dev found it's boring to always bring IIQ to MAPs just to find new one, and it's also unfair since poor guys have less IIQ and could miss the whole end game content.

So the IIQ from your char do not affect drop rate any more.

thanks for this information. :D

Ok, its nice to know, i didnt know that. Ty for explanation.

No.
For explanation just read this post with dev. quotes inside:
