How do you increase Element drop rate on an unofficial server?

[Goldenwenus]

as the title suggests, is it possible?

Or is it just going to be grind after grind?

(trying to resist the urge to spawn some)

havent been able to test this very much but should be a bit rare but since they can all spawn in one area should see bosses after maybe 4 wipes at most

Ok, Ill try editing my weight and see what that gets me. 1 should be a definite spawn right? So less than 1 being the percent chance of it spawning?

Does the Center map even have / recognize Easy / Medium / Hard? That could be why its not working at all. I know i went to try it a day or 2 ago and it only had the stuff it did before.

Actually reading the patchnotes helps, you would have found this:

* You can now alter Boss Element on your server using the following INI values:

ConfigOverrideSupplyCrateItems=(SupplyCrateClassString="DinoDropInventoryComponent_BossSpider_Easy_C",MinItemSets=1,MaxItemSets=1,NumItemSetsPower=1.0,bSetsRandomWithoutReplacement=true,ItemSets=((MinNumItems=1,MaxNumItems=1,NumItemsPower=1.0,SetWeight=1.0,bItemsRandomWithoutReplacement=true,ItemEntries=((EntryWeight=1.0,ItemClassStrings=("PrimalItemResource_Element_C"),ItemsWeights=(1.0),MinQuantity=100.0,MaxQuantity=100.0,MinQuality=1.0,MaxQuality=1.0,bForceBlueprint=false,ChanceToBeBlueprintOverride=0.0)))))

DinoDropInventoryComponent_BossDragon_Easy_C

DinoDropInventoryComponent_BossDragon_Medium_C
DinoDropInventoryComponent_BossGorilla_Easy_C

Actually looking at the date I posted this you would of found out I posted this a day before the patch was released ;)

have put this into our server now with great success.

So which of the code above do you alter to increase the yeild and does anyone know the ratio?

To increase yield? Probably the ones that says quantity.

heres how i have mine set up

How often do these bosses spawn? I would like to set this up on my Singleplayer, thanks. :)

You do know these are the boss arena bosses right?

[Davos]

I recently added this to my server and the new element amounts drop after each boss fight. HOWEVER! The Boss trophy's no longer drop with elements. Any ideas?

[Fate (-{SoH}-)]

@davos rather sure the boss flag auto appears in the inventory of each person that was in the fight.
I use the same code to rewrite the boss element drop rate and the flags still drop.

Also got bosses spawning naturaly around my world along with every dlc critter including wyverns and griffins tho made bosses + the wyverns very rare.

[Davos]

Each player near by does get the flag but I am referring to the gamma(easy), beta(med) and alpha(hard) trophies, just the new element rates. I need to boss trophy to enter the Tek cave.

I believe the trophy is called: "PrimalItemTrophy_Broodmother_Gamma_C" for the Easy Spider for example. How do I enter that into the above loot crate along with the new element rates?

[Davos]

Great NEWS! I figured it out....

Here is the correct code to get BOTH custom ELEMENT and Boss TROPHY:

ConfigOverrideSupplyCrateItems=(SupplyCrateClassString="DinoDropInventoryComponent_BossSpider_Easy_C",MinItemSets=2,MaxItemSets=2,NumItemSetsPower=1.0,bSetsRandomWithoutReplacement=true,ItemSets=((MinNumItems=2,MaxNumItems=2,NumItemsPower=1.0,SetWeight=1.0,bItemsRandomWithoutReplacement=true,ItemEntries=((EntryWeight=1.0,ItemClassStrings=("PrimalItemResource_Element_C"),ItemsWeights=(1.0),MinQuantity=30.0,MaxQuantity=30.0,MinQuality=1.0,MaxQuality=1.0,bForceBlueprint=false,ChanceToBeBlueprintOverride=0.0),(EntryWeight=1.0,ItemClassStrings=("PrimalItemTrophy_Broodmother_Gamma_C"),ItemsWeights=(1.0),MinQuantity=1.0,MaxQuantity=1.0,MinQuality=1.0,MaxQuality=1.0,bForceBlueprint=false,ChanceToBeBlueprintOverride=0.0)))))

Just change the Boss and Both Element amounts and Boss Trophy for each level of Boss. Enjoy!
