New LG Beast Drop Poll (3 Choices)

[Drowsword]

1 weapon, 10 M gold to others!

Personally I think every LG beast should drop 3 Random LG pets (could be the same, could be all different; it's random) and then a TP, a Master, and the actual weapon of the same item.

If it was to drop pets they should be sb on looting.

The 1 weapon 2 masters thing still ends in one guy benefitting more than the other 2. Which results in the same problem as the old system. Imo.

When legendary weapons were first announced, the impression was they would be super rare (as legendary implies), and something that only the mightiest, fabled champions of Nodiatis would wield. This was further reinforced by them beng non-craftable.

Sadly (imo), legendary weapons are not the mark of a true Nodiatis champion, because the acquisition system implemented (beast drop), essentially made it a lottery.

The fundamental problem now imo, is that all players believe it is their right to own a legendary weapon. This somewhat stems from the fact that anyone can be lucky enough to get a legendary weapon drop if they queue in the lucky slot. If instead, legendary weapons were the result of an insanely difficult challenge that was achievable as a solo or group (ie. not like the legendary beast), or long and gruelling series of quests / achievements, there would be no denying the deservingness of the bearer, and such toons would truely be elite.

Now it seems, the changes to the legendary beast drops are taking a bad system and making it worse, although it is probably too late to remedy the mistakes in that were already made.

Imo there is nothing wrong with a few toons being clearly better than everyone else. It *should* give everyone else something to aspire to. Receiving respect / admiration for being the most OP is a great reward for investment into this/any game.

agree.. is why I paid 120 tcs for the very first lg weapon... then 1 week later came another, I was very disappointed.. but its w/e.. I guess we live we learn

Imo it should have been like .0001% chance of a mob being a legendary beast. Then you'd have to solo the beast.

Too late now

Just the fact that you can pay 120 tcs for it means that it can be bought which in turn means that anyone willing to spend some dough can get his/her hands on it.

I used to think this way too before lg's were implemented. But I understand what Glitchless has done with lg's and I like it. They are expensive which makes it difficult to obtain them. But everyone can get them if they spend enough time/money on the game so in a way it is an accomplishment to have something lg.

Lg's are more like upgraded epics for capped toons (and thats fine). Since there are so many sets, it is guaranteed that there will be some variety betweeen toons (unlike when cap was 70/80 and everyone was using 78's/88's). Now some folks use epics, some use some lg's, some use other lg's etc etc and there is variation among toons which is nice.

I don't necessarily think that the lg beast is the best way to introduce these new lg's but I can't think of a better way either (other than just let them drop in areas with 100 plus mobs and thats lame too tbh). So I am fine with whatever Glitchless does. 3 masters is fine. 1 lg item is fine. 1 lg and 2 masters is fine. If I had to choose, I'd say drop 1 lg item and 2 consumable recipes plus several million gold per person. But I am fine with whatever.

My 2 cents

You all keep going on and on and forget one important thing. Nodiatis is a BUSINESS. Its not a charitable home for us lost souls to come and forget our worldly worries and be a super tank or an insane dd blaster. It is about MONEY. So when changes come that will encourage players to spend irl money just accept them and stop whining.

[Thanatonian]

option 1 sticks to the spirit of what it means to possess an lg weapon. That it is won by a team that is built well, works well together and understands each other to know what to do with the drop once (and if) they get it.

[Atropos]

while we at lg drops, when did legend pets drop last time? I
I think it was a long time ago considering they should drop more often than other weapons...

And prob wont drop for a while until Gitch decides how they will drop with that new drop system.
