Fedup!And getting ready to quit!!!
vB post 143355 - 10/19/08 04:02 PM

After running Balzac 55 times and not finding rb sally its getting hard to up grade your armor.Speaking of rb sally,everyones talking about how crappy the items are and that when found theres nothing they can use.Being a senior runner i have to agree,since the last heave the items have been really bad.Theres been Relics chests that dont contain relics,and the drops have gotten worst.Adding the Amazon was a good addition ,but the items she has to offer are low level and people are buying the rb's just to get some.The rb drop % has changed to the limit that I leveled my alt 12 times and havent seen an rb.L68-L80.Lets loosen up rbsally a little,there isnt anyreason to not have her restock one or two times.It would give us a chance to at least get something we can use.
The new dungeon is a joke,The maps are to large and too many mobs,and when you get to the Boss the fight is great but the reward is a big let down.I think you have gotten away from the fun part and tried to give more to the PVP people.Lets not forget "Its supposed to be fun" if some people want to go PVP which is supposed to be serious let them go to another server an or game and kill each other.Anyone have anything to say to that?

/While most appreciate constructive criticism, almost no one likes whining about how they will quit because they aren't getting what they want. It makes you sound like a 3 year old throwing a tantrum because mommy won't let you play with your toys. Perhaps, like your forum name suggests, you should do your complaining with style. Being a senior runner one would think you'd know some of the following information.

To start with, you can keep running dungeon after dungeon looking for Rainbow Sally, but you won't find her because she's no longer in the game. Secondly, rainbows are the most rare weapons/gear of the game, emphasis on rare. Which means they will not drop nearly as often as any other type. They should not be too easy to get, that's the whole point. Never mind that while you are leveling, until you reach level 100, you will have to always get new gear. So you leveled 12 levels, kudos to you, but that doesn't mean you will get or deserve to have a rainbow drop simply because you have leveled 12 levels. Again, it's RANDOM. Also, there are many who use purples and yellows, even at level 100 and have no problem doing so. I've seen purples that are actually better than rainbows and I'm sure I'm not the only one.

As for the Amazon stuff you mentioned, I have no idea what you are talking about. The rainbows she sometimes has are only low level? I think not, I've bought several level 100 weapons/gear. Have you actually switched from the low level page to the high and max pages?

As for the new dungeon....you're saying it's too large? And yet, I have to wonder, if it were half the size would you complain that it was too small? The point of the game is to run dungeons, so I really don't see what the problem would be with running a larger one. Often people complain, in this game, about content and not having enough, this is the opposite? What are you in a hurry for? getting to the next dungeon and killing more mobs? The reward for the new boss fight, in my opinion, is fairly decent and if you do it with a group, really nice. Besides the fact that if he simply is not the boss fight for you, there are others to try out instead.

Again, I'm confused by what you are saying. PvP does have it's own server. Perhaps, if you're playing on it, you should go to another server/world if your unhappy. While PvP did get some changes, I would say that the majority of this last chunk/heave gave attention to PvE. If what you are saying is that people who want to PvP in general should leave and go play another game, well get use to PvP because I highly doubt it's going anywhere anytime soon. There are people who play DR because they like both aspects.

Hey, agreed with most of what lady said but just thought I'd point out - rb sally is still in game. I dunno who started the rumour that she was gone but after hearing about it I decided to see for myself...I found her maybe 4 times in about an hour and a half of running rats3 (all junk, btw). KC sally is still there too .

I didn't try bb3 though, they may have taken her out of there to compensate for adding relic chests? I dunno. I saw someone had it in embercore other day though.

Thank you for the info, Sacrilegious (notice, i took pains to not shorten your name and make the same mistake as before, lol). In that case, I'll change what I say to: finding rainbow sally is the luck of the draw and not a guarantee. Therefore, if you're unlucky enough not to find her, then there's not much point in complaining about it because it's all up to chance. However, there is always the chance, which is better than nothing.

I can't complain about amazon, got my t3 death's habit from there, and other good 100's. When I get back from fighting I usually check an amazon in a town with less people, and often people will announce when she has one.

Can't tell much difference in Rb Sally, mainly because I don't look for her anymore. I have seen her a few times with not so great items, but a friend said he saw her recently with 2 rrod, a clicker, and cinder.

New map? If you don't like it then don't play it. The devs spent a lot of time working on it and changes can be made in the future if needed, lets appreciate their hard work. Its meant to be more of a challenge and I know people who like it (especially the first mob for gold).

Only thing with rb drops that sometimes annoy me is getting the same ones over and over. Out of who knows (1000?) rb drops from farming I have never gotten a dialed in, xoxo, or rrod. I have over 40 rings but none with %4 fire, the majority are %ranger, poison, melee. Thats my only minor annoyance, but I'm not going to threaten to quit because of it.

Yeah, you're not the only one =) I've noticed that if you have a specific build in mind then a set of purples that further that build can easily be more effective than a set of RB's for your level. RB's are fun, but perfect purples are a min-maxers bread and butter.

Amen to that! It's very difficult to believe that rb generation is completely random after seeing many dozens of certain items. It seems weapons get the biggest chunk of the % chance, followed by misc. body pieces, then bodies, then, of course, jewelry.

Exactamundo. Even worst is trying to get multivariety gear, and then to get it to spawn with mods actually useful. I must have found 2-3 bank pages worth of phat blings/pacifiers/hoof loops etc. and about 70% of them had divine/poison% mods. Useless. Only maybe 3 or 4 have spawned with mage%.

The rb generation is seriously biased to giving us useless drops .

Have not been to the boards in a couple of days so I'm a bit late with the response but, here is a breakdown of RB Sally chances, and yes, it is still the same as build 110.

Here is the link for Sam if anyone is interested, although I think the odds are more like 1/200-220, and it is not updated for non-member costs.
