Sounds a little outlandish for 250k... but you make a valid point. If I spend 10 hours farming the 1000 bloodwood i need... although id also collect tons of other woods in the process, id expect more than 30k... 250k still seems high.
Edit: eh... maybe 250 isn't outlandish. Hell if I know. But...
30k is pretty absurd. I can probably farm 100 logs of bloodwood at 120 Lj in 1-2 hours. Seems like I need to join in on this absurdity. Id understand if it was the new 1000 log chests. Thats 800 logs on a first success try and 1600 on a 2nd try... (only 50% maybe 60% in crafting area success...
Pretty sure they drop between 1 and 10 frostwood logs 100% of the time. Definitely enjoying that. Also, I think drop rates for higher quality woods have slightly increased since they last reduced their rate.
Alright, I am reasobably confident that due to my own and others recent excessive farming and somewhat rapid acquisition of vanq and power quality bows that admins have made some tweaks. After crafting a bit last night I noticed that when you successfully craft an item with the magical bonuses...
Soo... I was just starting lumberjacking for the evening. I got a system message that I dislodged a giant serpent from the tree.. and it started attacking me. When I killed it, it had 50 logs on it. Just normal logs. I wonder if it'll drop better quality sometimes? Also... why? lol Maybe to make...
I've got one of each of these on display on the house adjacent to and east of goonglow vendors. Each take 1000 logs and has a 50% success chance. Lemme know if you know what I can get out of them. I can likely craft about 10-15 of them right now if anyone is interested.
Just to give you some statistics on how much I farmed before I was successful in crafting that plain vanquishing exceptional bow. I farmed wood on my 120 LJ (which wasn't cheap to acquire, even before the new wood released) for at least 6 hours. In that 6 hours I accumulated roughly 40k normal...
Haly your concern is understandable. It is not consistent with a BOD system. But take into account the scarcity of the woods, the minimal success chance of crafting these weapons with great bonuses and the fact that the wood spawns are random and cannot be farmed like recall mining for val...
In response to cerebellum, in my experience it does in fact seem that the type of wood has a significant impact on the quality of weapon crafted. There may be set caps on the bonuses granted for each wood, or just somewhat higher chances to get greater bonuses on better woods. I have crafted...
I dunno if I would call it jacked up, but interesting assessment none the less. I have a hunch that after watching the progress of crafters on the first few days, admins decreased the higher quality wood drop rates. I farmed for 4 hours yesterday and only got ~50 frostwood and bloodwood. Maybe...
I've probably burned through about 250-300 frostwood so far. Haven't been able to sit down and farm as much wood as I have wanted. More to come in the future :)
Here ya go. This is what I've kept from my attempts at crafting the wood. Lots of non-exceptionals/plain exceptionals were trashed. First column in each bag is no accuracy modifier, 2nd is accurate, 3rd is surpassingly accurate, and so on.
