I get blues and purples on an almost consistant rate doing just normal arkfalls BEFORE the DLC's even started. I FINALLY dropped an orange out of one the other day that was worth a look and keep.Quote:

Good point Deunan, as I mentioned I rarely ran a loot boost. So as long as the current drop rates on crap stay the same, it will be the same scrip boost I've been getting as I do loot=scrip myself....Quote:

Oh wait.. this is Trion we're talking about..
Nevermind.. noting to see here.. these are not the dev's your looking for...
Wow... they MUST have lost their minds..
The only thing worth getting, they remove it.
Way to lose money Trion!
Once my salvage and scrip bypassed the 2m mark I quit buying boosts needless to say, I haven't bought them in some time.
None of the boosts mean very much to me, as none of them "directly" give the currency I am chasing now. A Forge Boost, I think, would be welcome by many of the Vet players. However, Trick has flip-flopped on his stance about the Forge chase, so it's doubtful it would ever see fruition.
Well the score boost basically is a key and arkforge boost.Quote:

My "wallet" in game is no where near what yours is, but I'm already at that point where I'm chasing Ark Forge more than anything else. Mainly just because the RNG hates me to an almost epic level and I need arkforge to keep my weapons up to snuff and competitive in co-ops and instances. That and I've got a couple of purples (and yes, even a blue) that I'm really looking forward to jamming up to OJ's when the patch goes live today.Quote:

I'm not really for score boosts... this sounds too p2win for me.
As I seem to recall, "loot boosts" resulted in more junk loot, not better loot. I don't think they ever actually increased the quality of loot. What resulted were the junk loot weekends we all remember so fondly. Perhaps this is what they menat by not working as intended?
Moreover, the sheer volume of junk loot had to be factor in server loading. I'm not really crying over the loss of loot boosts.
^^ this is exactly what wasn't working as intended. Amazingly it only took them a YEAR to figure it out after just about every Alpha tester that tested these boosts reported it.
