Drop rates (in general)

Genereal qrRO talk

I don't usually have a problem with low drop rates (I used to play the old beta iRO :beta: ), but when I spend 6 DAYS :dwarf: in the MVP arenas and not one single measily little card (this is for beta mvp btw), then I get concerned. Is it just me or is everyone else experiencing it too?
I remember that CM posted saying he increased the drop rates to 10x....did I maybe miss something (I was gone a coupla days ^_^ )
Also, applies for other items like emperiums. Although I can see how it could be a smart idea to have low emperium drops because of rampant guild making, we still need it for other things.
Thoughts, ideas, feedback? (nothing stupid please, let's be productive here :kakashi: )

cards in general... well... they shouldn't be dropping by the seconds
especially since legit cards on a standard RO server would drop... .01% to .1% at most

.05% would be low cards like Porings, Fabres, Lunactics, etc.
.01% would be other cards like... Whisper, Sohees, Big Foot, Thara
.02% would be miniboss for lower, Mastering, Eclipse, etc.
.01% would also apply for MVPs

so you shouldn't expect great drops by seconds
lets leave emp drops at a low, because IDLE guilds = EXTREME lag

I realize how small the drop rates are and of course they should not be dropped like candy. But even with these drop rates, every 100 monsters or so, there should be a card (technically). Why is there no card when I kill 786 of the same monsters??? Even in iRO, with the same rates, the cards and rare items were more frequent.

0.1% means 0.1 out of 100
which is 1 out of 1000 would drop a card (technically)

Hhmm....Is it maybe because of the character that I use? Since you get cards all the time, is it because you use one of the older classes, because I am currently using my ninja??

Gradually I'm lowering rates to 5x.
Deal with it.

Oh well, thanks for the feedback folks. :kakashi:
