Nope not me. Lol

Apparently some people just like to complain for the sake of complaining. It's great that the folder drop rate has been increased. As for the boss health what did you expect? When haven't epic or raid bosses gone up in health between events? With the stat inflation now, if the boss always stayed the same strength, everyone would easily be able to do it, where's the challenge in that?

It is intentional that the drop rate for the folders is higher than usual to make up for any past low drop rates, and we want to be as fair as we can.

In addition to this, you should also see that the summoning cost has gone up!

Drop rate goes up. Summoning cost goes up. It would seem this is a net zero, and thus pointless.

Very true. It's a game that you can never get ahead in and only fall behind if your faction fails to hit most team events.

The drop rate is currently at least 10x from what I have seen. 100+ folders in 24 hours. Let it rain! Let it rain! Let it rain!

Omg how the hell can u guys complain they are dropping to much and gripe about bosses just say thank you and collect folders while there easy

Lol faint wait for the raid boss to start , then next will come all the complaints asking for free folders , I can see it now

Gree just can't win, can they? It's a good thing the drop rates have increased! I'd rather see 20-25k folders sat in my faction than a measly 1k and not being able to do anything. Also gives you the chance to farm bosses. Make the most of it before it's too late, chances won't come like this every raid boss event!!

Really OP???? STFU!!! The higher the drop rate the better!!! Why would you complain about that?? Ignore the original post GREE! Most people are happy about it, the people that are not won't be happy about anything...

The idea is to have you in-game more. It has nothing to do with you getting sufficient numbers, making it fair or providing utility; that's all irrelevant to game design. In fact human intelligence is irrelevant to game design. Human psychology is very relevant.

He's right ya know...taking more time out of your day to be in game with randomized rewards...sometimes high, sometimes low. You never know when you have to take advantage, so you should be checking back often. You would hate to miss it right?

So before you know it, you're trapped, down in the proverbial hole tapping the lever on their skinner-box slot machine and they are extracting as much of your resources as possible.

Look up...ya know who's there, the one orchestrating the whole game, and they do not have your best interests in mind.

The next crate event may even be opening baskets to collect lotion bottles. "Better luck next time" will be replaced with "now it gets the hose again."

You will be taken for all that you have without remorse.

Clearly you don't understand the full mechanics of this.

#1 Drop rates are currently higher than the increase of the cost to summon (looking at it really only the lvl 100 bosses doubled while the others went up by a small margin...but the drop rate is 10X higher than that of before.

#2 before it was just better to buy folders than farm them (it cost me 20 gold for 1000 energy and i couldn't get a folder with even 3000 energy) Now it forces people to choose. Campers will have to buy more folders or they will have to get XP with it. So Campers will have to pay the price.

#3 The drop rates are subject to change at any second...so gree has put up the new standard on cost to summon (they will probably never reduce the cost) so the drop rates could go back to horrible while the cost is also higher.

In all Instances the net sum is NEVER ZERO

Why would you even say anything about the HIGH Drop rate? If something good is coming your way and GREEd doesn't say anything then don't open your mouth. You may have screwed over everyone who is benefiting from the drop rate. Just like the prestaging mess, people kept talking about it and GREEd put a stop to it, don't be a moron, keep your mouth shut when you are getting something good like this.

Gotta complain about both sides.
