Is there finally loot drops from mobs yet?

[Titanofdoom]

I asked this question long ago, the game looks tremendous, but the barrier to entry is the lack of loot dropping from mobs outside dungeons.

I played the game yonks ago, and wondered if this had changed at all?

cheers

You get materials from mobs usually, like meat for cooking. Why is this a barrier to entry? You don't really need loot from mobs. Early levels anyway, you get gear from quests and dungeon loot.

I just love grinding mobs for loot, MMO's usually have weopons and armours dropping from mobs, just this dosen't which I find perplexing, but thanks for the reply.

You get lootdrops during Dungeons and Leves if you want to try and grab some boosted gear.

How is it perplexing that the random wolf or tiger you choose to spend your time grinding will only drop wolf meat and wolf skin or tiger meat and tiger skin etc. but will NEVER randomly drop some kind of armor, gil, or weapons? I mean... where would this stuff actually come from? It's stomach?

If you want gear, you need to either do quests which reward gear, craft it (which may involve grinding these same monsters for stuff they actually drop like the skin) or earn it through dungeon rewards and end game content.

Sorry but this is just how it works.

Black Desert Online is that way. All you do at end game is killing 50,000,000,000 mobs for loot to RNG your gears to Gazillion level of enhancement.

What about the non animals then? So that humanoid carrying a sword wouldn't be dropped on death then, it just vanishes?!

A paradoxical arguement, my point is, 99% of mmo's have loot from world mobs to make it more interesting.

I'm not a crafter, so acquiring a wolf pelt is not going to leave me in a pool of drool...obtaining a mighty 2 handed weopon on the other hand, may make my trousers twitch.

so u get exalted if a mob should drop a low lvl/low ilvl item that u wont be using anyway since the best gear is from dungeons/raids?... much logic

Read it again, as you clearly missed the point...anyone with half a brain cell should get the logic to it.

You cannot express a personal opinion these days, without some half wit depricating you...

no its the same point, u complaining about normal mobs dont drop anything and the question is why should they?... only a non-normal person would be exalted over some dropped gear that cant/ wont be used...

End of discussion...ask a simple question, the brain washed sheep have nothing better to do than cause a hue and a cry...you can see the dichotomy that is this world...role on ww3.

this game has more of a focus on story and character building than loot drops. honestly, I'm the type who loves loot drops as much as the next person, but this game is great in a different way.

They don't have it because we don't need it. Loot is handed out like candy anyway. You can an i270 weapon for barely any work now.

no derp? first leveling dungeon will give you better gear than alexander.

group content bosses do drop loot and non bosses in grp content can drop materia which is atm quite expensive in the highest tier.

Kinda weird if you say the game looks tremendous but the barrier is bc mobs dont drop loot.... kinda weird but meh.If they do it in 1 mmo it has to be done in another I guess. To each their own !

The reason that you want random drops from monsters is to add some variety to the game. In the early game, only being able to get gear from quest and shops means that everyone ends up with the exact same gear. Such that I went to turn in a quest and had another player walk up wearing the exact same gear as me 1-1. Not having this also takes out the fun of a random gain reward system that has been proven to be quite addictive to the human brain. It is fun to kill a mob and then on that low chance find a rare item that just kicks ass for your next few levels.
