New boss drops are fail...

[hjam_8879649]

If they are using heroic bosses as a guide line to Cerb and Baal then its a fail, but if they are using the quest level as a guide line ,then ya I can agree with that as I have gotten gear I could not get materials for from Cerb and Baal and had to wait till I opened the quest areas to farm supplies . if you are able to farm the materials then that is what you should be getting as a drop from world bosses and I hope this is the case since no one has really said its the Quest level or Heroic boss level here yet unless i missed it somewhere.

The guideline is the most advanced Heroic Boss beaten.

It would make tremendously more sense to go off both what the player can farm for, as well as what upgrade(s) they desperately need. If a player has 4 Champ Swords and 1 Champ Staff, they don't need another of either most likely, but they might need a Champion Cloak. Still make it chance-based of course, but skew the chances in favor of actually getting a usable upgrade instead of trash.

Heroic bosses don't really fall in line with what a player can actually craft, so again, it doesn't make sense for World Bosses to drop something you can't really craft and/or don't need.

The plan level is based of HR, NOt sure if the actual item is but it seems to be.

The only adjustment I suggest is this.

If the HR boss you last beat drops relics then rewards should be for

1st relics or cloaks
2nd cloaks or chestguard
3rd chestguard or helm

Still chance based a bit. But allows players to have some control over what they get and dont get. Giving someone who has beat the relic boss a SWORD is just ridiculous, of course tehy dont need a sword
they have gotten 20 trying to get the 5 relics.

If you have beaten the second envoy then your drops should be
1st Iron sword/staff or guard relic
2d guard relic or cloak
3rd guard cloak or chest guard

This way the items that are REWARDED need to be adjusted. I have seen first place players get swords/staves while second and 3rd place players get cloaks.

The old way 1st place got an item less likely to drop then 2nd and 3rd
now that is no longer true.

Granted this can not always work because 1st may not be further ahead of 2nd in HR

But given the 1st 2nd and 3rd place players are all on the same boss - 1st place should get an item that is less likely to drop then 2nd and 3rd.

Today I placed second and was awarded a helm and I am one boss ahead of 3rd and he got a chestguard. His item is less likely to drop for him then my item is considering I can beat the relic boss.

SO there needs to be some better reward for 2nd versus 3rd 1st place should get an item less likely to drop for them versus the item 2nd place gets, And 2nd place should get an item that is less likely to drop for them versus the item drop rate of the 3rd place person

For some time I've been wondering why players are less likely to play in the banish events. Due to their not playing, I've been able to advance and get 1st, 2nd, and 3rd on a more regular basis. It seems the reason may well be they are filling up their inventory with items they already have or cannot make (areas still closed to grind).

I'm glad you've put some thought into it Matt and hope the devs do take note.

I have a full inventory so what I do is not boost to stay out of the top 3 positions but stay as close to 4 as I can to maximize the coins, credits, and reputation I get without getting plans. If I ma falling behind, I do one boost. If I claim into the top three I stop Auto Fight for a bit to drop down.

I don't see why you'd stop going for #1. Level 4 gems don't drop out of the sky easily. Also, the more damage you do, the more you get rewarded. There's no incentive to drop down in position on the leaderboard.

i believe the simple fact of the matter is, tynon aint done the level 80 maps, so if they drop justice plans just leaves people waiting again.
there is no balancing, i can farm light bringers in heroic and materials for it, i dont need no more light bringers swords, i am looking for relics, but its impossible to get.
i would rather have justice plans that than light bringers swords over and over

got 6 guardian swords in a row. good patch guys. i don't need them at all and i am at baron feugo who can give me guardian relics but i don't get them from the world bosses though i finish 1,2,3 anywhere i get the same guardian sword.

This is my main issue with the patch. Not the level but the fact people are mainly getting swords and staves. Hence my suggestion above. It is suppose to be a REWARD. How are sword/staves That drop from 5 HR bosses per level of equipment a REWARD?
