Default Stacks when grouped.

I know that what I am about to say will sound as first class whining, but I wouldn't post this if i wasn't sure something was wrong.

When I'm grouped with my friends (Mostly Rayzor or Dennisthemenace) I get very few stacks og trophies or drops, say me and DTM is grouped, we get 10 stacks, now there is a 25% risk that I get none of those 10 stacks, and a 50% that I get 1-3 stacks.

I counted once and in 10 fights we got 60 stacks, out of those I got 19.

To some extent I'm willing to blame bad luck, but I've had this feeling for the major part of the time I've played this game (6 months now) altho I've mostly solode, and that's becaus I don't get **** when grouped up, and I've counted stacks droped and stacks gone to me several times more then the one mentioned, they all indicate the same thing, when grouped with one person, I get rhoughly 30% of the drops... When grouped with 2 I've almost stoped looking at loot screen since I more often then not doesn't get any stacks.

Can also tell you about last monday, me and Rayzor where toddling along killing things, first fight 2 stacks eatch, seccond fight 8 stacks to Ray 0 to me, third fight 2 eatch, fourth and fifth fight 8 and 9 stacks to Ray 0 and 0 to me.

I know it sounds like whining, but honnestly this is to much to just be dumb luck or my imagination.

I was grouped with a friend of mine, and we went through at least 10 fights, and he didn't get a single drop off of them. Obviously, I didn't mind, but you're right: it seems like there's something else at work in the group drops.

I always leveling with my alt in the group, killing in the same zone. And Ath you are right about stacks, if my main invites alt, main getting encumbered first always, if alt invites, then he is getting encumbered first, If I try invite third member in the group, he gets about ~10% of drops. So I think it's worth to group with only alts, or friends, after some battle they can split all the drop in the nice way

Ath, dennis is just prettier than you, because he has a beard. So it's normal.

Yes, I support Aths queerie about trophy drops, I was sure it was the 'leader', the one who did the inviting to the group that got a greater share of the trophies, so I left group, Ath invited me, still got more drops than him..... I think his account is ****ed.
