Increase drop rate

[slappi89]

Hello everyone. I found the drop rate of yellow stuff very low, I'm still on 1st difficulty. Is there a way to increase drop rate? I found so far, the only way is to merge luck runes into boots, I haven't found stuff yet with increased drop rate without crafting it by myself

The way to do it is to edit MergedCompetences file.
Here's my preffered edited file that significantly increases the odds of finding legendary/unique/celestial items but does not make it like cheating. Most bosses will drop 1-2 of those items most of the time so you can farm them easy.

Tell me if you have trouble with the link.

Have a search through loki's game directory folders to see which folder contains the file as i've not played the game for ages and i haven't got it installed currently. But once you find it you can delete your old file and paste this one instead.

So you just put it in the competences directory without renaming it to .xmd because the new file is a .html data?

do we have to rename the file or no need?

This is actually great!
I wish this also gave more exp to make grind less... tedious.
Sure there is x25 exp mod, but x25 is WAAAAY to much (it also does every enemy drop only unique items, but there are simply no unique items in-between progression, which actually makes the game harder)
But something like x3 exp would be nice.
