Balor's loot

[Pwncakeroflsauce]

sooooo... what's up with lvl 40+ balors only dropping 1 longsword +1...

The economy in the Abyss has.....gone to hell....*cough*

I think its more a sake of balance. The loot is pretty poor across the board, a few good items depending on class/build but very few. If every high level enemy dropped a Holy Avenger or Infernal Blade of the Edge Lord or what ever, it would have the opposite effect and devalue the better items.

Its frustrating but....it makes the good items all the more valuable.
That said, they should at least drop a decent amount of gold or some thing valuable to sell.

There's been an ore shortage in the abyss ever since the miners switched to crystal mining and Balor's being the good generals that they are decided the front line troops deserve the good gear and they can take the +1 longswords in the back.

It's a Balor though... he should at least be rocking +3-4 weapon at minimum... according to the monsters manual its suppose to drop a +1 Vorpal unholy Longsword... and a +1 Vorpal Flaming Whip however if its killed on the material plane it just gets sent back to the abyss so it should be zero loot in that case.

Either way, seems fishy to me.

When you kill balor's, its the end game by the worldwound, which even in the fane you cant banish or send back demons with unsummon spells because it serves as a semi abyssal plane, so maybe they do actually die where you kill them and the loot stays. Who knows.

An artifact sink would address this issue really well. And a gold sink as well, throw the loot at ya, the game would benefit from it all.

Rare rewards, decked out troops, new alliances...all in exchange for a few paltry holy avengers?

Mmos face similar problems all the time, and they've had to work around them. It sure beats fighting powerful foes and feeling...unrewarded. -cough- playful death -cough-

Go back in time and buy all those unique items from Defenders Heart that you couldn't afford at the time.

i mean, i have been killing minotaurs around lvl 20 that drop earth breaker +4 and those lvl 40 balors drop only a +1 longsword?... i understand to balance thing and not make them drop unique item... even tho each balor feel like a mini boss because they alway come with plenty of reinforcement ... so even unique items wouldnt be far fetch imo.. but at the VERY LEAST a +4 whatever weapon they are using
