then how do u explain what i wrote above?

player a (lvl 72) getting mat type 1.....player b (lvl 96) also getting mat type 1.....

unless these people are bs'ing me your theory (which i first subscribed to) does not fit. What is everyone's opinion on it having something or nothing to do with title/quest progress/hr? maybe its a combination of level and game progress??

Ive begun noting materials dropping from chests from my guildies and also others on server. i will post when ive got some data to add and look forward to others sharing theirs also.
