Thread: Interesting find that needs further testing.

    Default Interesting find that needs further testing.

    I have notice some items, and possible amulet from 5s, as far as how it work exactly, i don't really know for sure, but i might have an idea base on the pattern. I normally check the report on the 10s but rarelt ever check the 5s aside from randomly checking 1 or 2 out of 100s of 5s report.

    It seems that a fully generated npc 5s will give out items (none medal).
    Generally all my 5s is at max when farming, however, i was late on some of my farming by 1 hour.
    After farming several waves of 5s, i would check my script and i notice i gain 2 extra and i haven't far my 10s yet. I am not saying you will gain script every time, but there was a consistency with late farming and items. When i farm my 10s i also gain 3-5 items out of 20 10s.

    The last few days i was on time on my farming, and only gain 1 script and 2 other useless item, hero hunting and speaker.

    Someone did mention to me that the time your farmers hit their target do make a considerable difference, however, i feel this is just a fluke since i have been able to repeat this method twice, and been trying to do a 3rd, but someone else has been tapping into my field.

    Give it a try and see if you can gain more item letting the npc fully generate and allow 30 min to an hour pass the renegeration.



    I wish i can comfirm this, but i am not 100% sure at this time, it could be a fluke.

    This would be better of in age 1 discusion. But I think its a fluke as I usually farm at different times and the item drops are usually the same. # of items is based on # of npcs I hit.

    While i am agreeing with you at a certain point i was able to duplicate the the experienment, however, lately alot of my allies have been tapping into 60% of my npcs leaving me with 60% renegerated 5s so i am currently unable to duplicate it for a 3rd or 4th time.

    There were other instances were i have had several items from 5s but i always notices it from fully regenerated 5s and or 10s.

    There is something there, i just need to do enough test to figure the pattern.
    With the current npc layout and alliance spread, it is difficult to replicate it.

    I have noticed the same pattern. There is something there like you said. My theroy is that the alogrithm that determines the drops regulats x amount of drops a day. In order to meet these drops and make sure everyone is happy it either drops alot of items early, and none later on, or if the drops are low it drops a bunch just before reset. I've said it many times, drops of any kind are not random, if we can find a pattern we should be able to correctly predict when medals/items drop.

    Ive also noticed a spike in michs, holy waters, and especially speakers from level 5 npcs i hit half regened npcs with full troops and fully regened npcs and get items either way, so im not sure it has to do with the ressy amount, but quite possibly the troop amount.

    On my Age II server, NPCs actually stick and when I farm lv 5s, I get items all the time, as well as medals. I've gotten about 15 Mich Scripts in a span of about a month as well as 100s of Hero Huntings, and 100s of Courage and other mid-level Medals.

    age2 is incredibly generous with drops when compared to age1 where medals dont even drop off npcs on most servers.

    I wish so bad we would get medals from NPCs on our server!

    well all i can say is - i usally get the same amount of itmes every day. and i hit the same amount of NPC every day - on the other side droprate on medals seams to be different then Item droprate on 10s

    i can hit the same amount of valleys every day, but i wont getthe same result daily. i hit 600 valleys and got no nation in these 3 days!
    next day i hit 200 valleys - got one
    the day after agian 200 valleys - got a nation
    the day after that 200 valleys - none
    next day - none....

    all other medals drop like crazy - 3 to 5 rose medals 1 to 3 justice many many honor and 2 to 5 of the others easy

    if anyone can figure out the nation droprate he will be my GOD!

    I had luck with a few deserts for Nation at one point
    I got 18 Nation out of 300 attks and bout 100lion medals
    Try swamps for Justice medals there the only way to go
    Forest for the honor and wisdom(sometimes wisdom come from swamp)
    Rose from the gleaming lakes and flats lets just say they give away random medals at any point
    I hit with
    30k arch
    1 work
    1 warr
    1 scout
    1 pike
    1 sword
    1 cav
    and 1 ballistae
