Talk:Drop rate/Gypsie Ettin

I heard you could get good stuff from these, but not as much as I expected, I killed 2 groups of 6 and got 2 gold armours, major soul reaping and supr swordsmanship ^^ 18:47, 16 March 2006 (CST)


 * They've dropped Superior Vigor for me once and a couple of Superior monk runes. most of the time they drop average stuff, but enough to make the run equivalent to any 1 hour farming run. If you get a major Vigor, you have basically matched a UW run in terms of cash. --Karlos 19:14, 16 March 2006 (CST)


 * I documented around 130 Gypsie Ettin drops and I did not recieve a single gold Ettin's Pauldron, although I did get 2 gold Equippable items. Then I was farming Charcoal from Fire Imps and found a single Ettin. Killed him and suprise, a gold Pauldron that turned out to be a superior vigor.


 * If your wondering were my drop data is, I don't think posting data for 10 or so kills really shows a good drop rate, so I decided to wait till I documented 200 or more kills before I post. And I don't distinguish between gold, purple, blue, or white. I'm a little paranoid that ANet will nerf a drop rate should they see too many golds are dropping from a certain monster. :D --Gares Redstorm 21:24, 16 March 2006 (CST)

Somethings wrong with Omega Nightfire's data. 22 gold Equippable drops? You, sir, are a lucky man or use Hacks!! :D --Gares Redstorm 02:51, 24 March 2006 (CST)


 * I don't find that unreasonable. When I get weapon drops from them they are usually gold.  Almost never max damage or anything like that, but usually gold.  --Rainith 02:56, 24 March 2006 (CST)


 * I have drop rate data, which I will post when I get home, been too lazy to. Out of over 200, they only dropped 4 gold. This killing only 20 at a time and doing things to make sure if anti-farming code is real, to make sure its not on me. --Gares Redstorm 03:07, 24 March 2006 (CST)

Edit: If his numbers are correct, then his percentages are off. No way can 22 out of 240 = 0.08% and 8 out of 240 = 3.3% I think he might have his equippable weapon data backwards somehow. --Gares Redstorm 03:10, 24 March 2006 (CST)
