Leviathan drop rates

[PlusMinus]

Simply horrible. I play nightmare mode, 3 pearls not a single rare drop.

Kinda wanted to check new flak and after getting +20 pearls achievement, all I got 2 symbiosis items and new coil gun. Mind you I only look for rare star forged.

So is it truly, nightmare?

[Suzaku]

Nightmare doesn't change loot quality except for allowing some elite enemies to drop legendaries. Lower the difficulty and gather pearls faster that way.

I know. It's a basically a pun. Bad pun though :D

[Notoshy]

did quiet a few Whale dives and got better Loot over time. Atleast it feels like it became gradually better over time.

Agree, there's a feeling like this. But again, to me it's not fun so might be I got bored already.

Rockfish has confirmed in the Discord that Titan and Leviathan event loot quality does improve with repeated runs. Through an undisclosed (and subject to balance adjustments) number of runs, the loot quality in each event type will permanently ramp up to +400%.

Counts for each event type are summed separately - if you do a hundred Dreadnought runs and five Leviathan runs, your Leviathan loot quality will be pretty low compared to Dreadnought loot quality.

Completed 2 runs out of 5 in Hard game mode and received Marksman Brood mines and Symbiosis High capacity transfusion missiles.
My first 3 pearl runs were a complete disaster. My 4th was good as i completed it and 5th were surprisingly easier. I decided not to take Bob on those runs. Maybe that helped as he can be trigger happy Not done a Titan run yet so what drops will be exciting from what I've read in other posts.
6th run just completed. ULT recharge blueprint and assorted Blues
Run 7 is a XM-426 bio weapon. Loot does improve with each successful run

[Notoshy]

Try not to use "explosive" ammunition in the Space Whales, they dont like that. Same with exploding Enemies, the shockwave distresses the Whale.
Best Weapon for Whale Dives is the Inferno Legendary, as it doesnt harm biological Objects and Creatures.

Quite useful piece of information, thank you.

Yes, just to clarify the Loot Scaling that happens with the Titan events as it was me that posted up the information on our Discord. (Geekbyte = RFG_Garry)

As you progress through these events, you gain an increased percentage chance of improving your drops by completing various amounts of each. As I mentioned earlier, I can't give exact numbers required to meet each threshold, as they can be tweaked (I've provided feedback and internal discussions have happened around this), but I will say that the percentage improvements gained range from +20% up to 400% the more of these events you do.

Remember - This increases the chance for an item to be of a higher quality which means Rarity and Grading (Prototype and Starforged)

In a nutshell, doing more of each Titan event will improve your chances of better gear & items.

Thank you for heads up! It helps not to lose hope so cheers again.

How many for 400% ?

[ArtoriasOFtheAbyss]

since titans dlc , i ve done more than 50 leviathan runs , and always what i get is blue rarity and maybe one or two purple superior rarity at best

the loot quality is simply terrible

be nice to get completed levi/dread stats on the player data page.
The biggest problem with the loot is "symbiosis" is locked to pearls but has to share the drop pool with "blightmonger" and "redemption". "Together we stand" is locked to dread but has to share the pool with "rogue" and "stormchaser". Further dilutated by the "autonomous" and "opulence" which drop anywhere and "power oscillator" which is exclusive to either titan event. Making target farming "symbiosis" and "together we stand" sets incredibly frustrating.

Agree, that pretty much sums up my post.

"Spoiler Alert"

Looks like even if you are level 30 Titan loot starts off like level 15. I just built a striker for weapons energy and ULT generation and then turned the aim bot all the way up and the level to Very Easy.

Once I did about 30 Leviathan runs I started seeing Starforged gear very rarely. At that point I cranked the difficulty back to nightmare.

The leviathan peptides still only pop up about 1 out of 5 runs or so.

When I have enough to create an evolution catalyst, I install it on a weapon, aim bot up, level down, and farm kills in high risk areas without killing the boss so enemies keep spawning.

The Strikers Ult ties ships together but does not cannibalize your kills from your weapon. If you tie 5 ships together and kill several at one time they all count towards the evolution 1000

I got 1000 kills in about 30-40 minutes depending on the weapon.

Used Bomber for missiles

Hope this helps
