Terrapin Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 Hello. Returning player here on NA server. If one person in a party has VIP status, how do the drop rates work? In other words, do all party members need to have VIP status to achieve the increased drop rate? Thank you. T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think anyone knows for sure because there have been no official statement. Over a year ago I did some experiments which had no conclusive results.

Ingwaz Posted May 2, 2020 Share Posted May 2, 2020 I actually remember reading that VIP drop boost is calculated as the average beetween the party. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes that's one of the theories. Once again no extensive testing has been done to prove it or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is that the effort to get hard numbers is beyond anything anyone is really willing to do. You would need two groups (one with max VIP and one with the VIP mix) with the exact same everything in the exact same area killing the exact same number of monsters. You would need to count the number and type of every monster killed and do so until you have at least 10,000 monsters killed each in order to get something statistically relevant. A lot of the drops in this game are like 0.1-0.05% so you need A HUUGE sample size. Edited May 6, 2020 by Tool_of_Society Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
