Snakeskins drops

[Sakino]

First of the guild wars update, snakeskins on normal were dropping like 3/4 of the times. This is what i get by starting farming at empty inventory now( do not count the ingots, dark Prince gryphon trash)

What exactly are you getting at?

[paganizer]

He is getting 20 stone slabs and only 8 snakeskins on normal. Farm on Epic is the answer.

[Lord Of The Infernal]

No to snakeskin i only farm typhoon gem :P

[Nano The Grey]

Farm it on the second level better odds

How did you even decipher that.. Lol

He started with an empty inventory of crafting materials.

He then farmed out the Skeletons Tomb.

Image is what he ended up with.

;)

[TealC]

Ohh, I see what he's saying now lol

But farming it on normal seems to work fine for me, might take more time but I get more snakeskins in the end.

[cubey]

I farm on epic so I can lose hp quicker.. Who wants to farm snakeskin that much..

[TealC]

I hate farming snakeskins but I want to get my armors up. :(

[Sakino]

This is very, very bad. I was getting way more snakeskins first of the update. Now i get slabs even on streaks of four times. Normal was fine just untill this update. Is a way more to get people buy chests. I'm farming now at high level stages for fusions, and the cerberus dropped 5/6 times talons.

[Nicco]

It's not an update issue, it's a random number generator, and like anything else computer driven you're going to have stretches where snakeskin comes up more than the average and less than the average.

The answer to snakeskin farming is to always farm on epic.

Really? I alway farm on easy, because the hp, time, and everything it takes is 1/3 of the epic stage. Is better to lose a 30% chanche of drop than a 300% efficiency drop. But i may think again after those bad numbers, and maybe switch to epic. The rates seems to be now lower than 50% and this is getting bored. Got a 5 streak of stone slabs after a two streak of skins.

It's actually more efficient for hp, time, exp, and drops.

After this low in drops, yes, i think i will switch to epic. But even on epic, i get almost a slab every two or three snakes.
By the way, the drop of keys and stones seem much higher even on easy. Got two from sixteen runs

I've done both quite a bit (easy/epic) and I've gotten way more stones/keys from easy as well. It's mostly rng I am sure. Still frustrating haha

Seriously just farm typhoon gem at normal stage 5 runs get u around 6-8 gems no joke see mine, someone might said it's cost 6k to craft but it's still worth it

[Xslayer]

It's mostly luck for me or just a coincidence, but when I get a slab in easy I do might or epic than go back to easy and i usually get 4-6 drops before another slab appears, than I go back to do might or epic... and blah blah blah lol....

It's not really helping this topic that both iOS and Android players are talking here, while I guess the update the topic starter talks about is probably an iOS-only one of which it's unclear when it will hit Android. ;)

That's why you get paid the big bucks...

If that statement was meant to utterly confuse me, you've succeeded...

The morale is:
Droididians, farm a lot while in time!
By the way , Those stones and more key that morph in more stones, are very very interessing. Goind to fuse a ton of two stars to enchanche my armors.
I just farmed lots of times the cascades, and i found a good drop of gems. When i'll need some air water armos, i will not forget about this.

Edit: maybe i start to know why they balanced a bit this... Look what guild guardians drops!

Those are already 1800 enchanchement points for only five guardians. What the heck

[Neptune]

wait, what?:eek:

[Nicco]

Huh? The heck? I want!

So, reducing the 24 EP material, but more 50 EP and 180 EP material I guess to close the ~4000 EP gap between Legendary and Epic armor? I wonder if that means that they're planning to shift boss armors over to 99 levels...
