Hmmm how about killing IG in Altep 24 times and getting 26 Iron Plates total, all with at least TH6?

One drop is 100%.

Hahahahahaha. I'm sorry man, that sucks. Amusing nonetheless. The worst part about getting one drop is that you don't get the "thank god, I'm closer to finishing", you're always pissed off that you didn't get two. To have that situation 24 times? Good luck with the shield/instrument.

I did go 1/1 on VE so that made me feel better about my bad drop rates elsewhere.

Surprised no one mentioned King Behemoth yet~

Defending Ring hasn't dropped for 4 years on my server last time I checked and I've camped half of that from boredom.

But I guess that isn't a personal record, more like a server record~

I've never seen it drop or heard of it dropping though.

0/~150 on Leaping Boots is probably my worst personal record.

1/1 on Vivian Ring is my personal best without treasure hunter.

I think my absolute worst (at least, that I can think of right now) would probably be 1/17 on O. kote. Not even sure about my Shinryu numbers since I really haven't kept track... but I know that I have yet to see a mail or cloak drop. Also, If I count Salvage, I'm 0 for life on 35 Ares's pants, but since i started going very late, the number isn't that high.

My best would be 1/4 on Trotter Boots, 1/4 on Dryad Staff, 1/4 on Leaping/bounding boots, 1/4 on Birdbanes, 1/3 on E Hairpin and 1/2 on Argus. Ha, another was 1/1 on Ose when Assault Jerkin was actually a "decent" body piece for drg.

You know... upon looking at this.. I collect a lot of useless crap..

O kotes was a long period of camping as well for my ex's. I think we were above 15. Might've broke 20.

Ironically when they did drop... my ex was the one that killed it on her rdm while I was on thf and hadn't even touched it.

ah, and 0/10+ on Sarutobi Kyahan

I didn't actually keep track, but once, many years ago, I got a Mermaid piece from the NM that drops it 100%, and decided to go after the other pieces and hope for a Mermaid Ring to sell (back when people actually used the stupid thing). I figured "hey, I'm a THF, why not?" I got 2 of the other pieces without any trouble. But the piece that drops from Brook Sahagins.... let's just say I get mad anytime I see a Brook Sahagin, even now, years later. I ended up soloing about 25-30k exp or so on them before getting it. All that with TH2, and at about 20-30 exp/mob. Soo... prolly somewhere around 1/800? 1/1000? Something completely ridiculous.

In the end, I did get the Mermaid Ring. It sold for 150k. -.-

Yea, my LS has had this problem with getting it for one of our members. Killed it 3 times and it never dropped the ring. We think it's probably because Rani went yellow (still had hate) before each brew or something. Or maybe it's just bad luck.

In the olden days when all I had to worry about was RDM Maat, there was the race for the Moldavite Earring (back when there would be someone actually attempting to camp it) as I was convinced this was the key to winning the fight. 0/16.

I gimped my way to beating Maat on my first try anyways, then nabbed the earring later for kicks. 1/17 the next day.

so schway

1/87 Mee Deggi the Destroy of Eff'n Souls!

There was a running joke in my LS - as I lived in that damn castle for like 3 month - that if you killed Odude he would drop impact knuckles.

And the day I finally got them, was the day before they announced they were adding a Rare/EX version. So I was still fighting RMT right up to the last claim.

I had to kill Mysticmaker Profblix some 50 times. I knew the window so well, and was so good at the claiming it, people would basically leave when they saw me in there. (Gravity is still the best claim spell.) I wouldn't fight Maat with out it, and it took me 3 months to get it. I even capped Enhancing magic at Lv.70 in there, and then forgot to equip it for the fight.

This.

I didn't even spend more than an hour in that place.

Really though, never had problems with drops. Worst I've ever encountered was my SMN horn back in the day when I actually cared about dynamis. 3 years I spent in that place. I still don't have it but don't play SMN any more.

I've had decent luck with BCNMs/NMs. Went 1/1 on a PCC, but went about 1/6 for my Swan Bilbo.


Yeah, that's right, my BRD melees with a pretty sword. :3

Screw that NM to hell.

And now it's useless.
