Title: Does anyone else agree that presents should have increased spawn rate/drop rate
Post by: spike-balll on December 23, 2010, 10:07:37 PM
Hey I've been prezzie hunting for about 3 hours not and I've got 1 deluxe and id say around 12 regular prezzies. I think prezzies spawn at a decent pace but there is far to many people prezzie hunting for everyone to get some prezzies. Also i have had no drops yet so maybe an increased drop rate or spawn rate? That is just my opinion get back to me on what you think?

That's the whole point of it. I think the rate at which they drop from the sky is fine.

I actually did increase the drop rate for one of the more rare items that Deluxe presents can drop. Although it is still quite difficult to come by over all. Not saying this solves your problem, but just thought I'd point it out.

I think the spawn rates should be heavily scaled to the online player count. I'm not sure if that's what you have now, but I think it should 2x more common with 2x more people.

I think there should be some kind of corresponding numbers for the amount of spawns being killed in the area that increase the spawn rate of presents.

Because people like me that are only lvl 10 can't really scour the SO world for presents in a couple minutes like a lot of you but I can stay in one place and kill the hell out of the mobs that are spawning.

I got the Santa Hat and all three candy canes two years ago during the Christmas event. Granted, I no-lifed it like a bastard and got barely any sleep those few nights, but it's still possible.

Of course, deluxe presents didn't exist then. Last year I had randomly stumbled across a deluxe and got a Fedora, and then couldn't be arsed to no-life the Christmas event all over again.

This year, I only plan to go for a snowball. I don't necessarily want the Green Beret and I also can't be arsed to try to get a Slasher.

That being said, they're fine the way they are.
