Change in gold loot drop?

rate of PRIMARILY GOLD drops...

Blood vortex - 2k+
toxic ele 1k+
psn ele 700gp?
greature blood 1.5k
ancient wyrm 1.5k+
dragon 900+
shadow wyrm 1.4k+
balron 1.1k+

I averaged the gold drops after killing around 4 of each mob, and Im quite shocked if Im honest.. Of course if you put these into difficulty catagories personally it would be this:-

Hard: Ancient wyrm, shadow wyrm, Balron
Medium: Balron, Greature blood, [psn ele], Dragon
Easy: Blood vortex, toxic ele. [psn ele],

It took me a easy 5 minutes to clear out bottom half of shame 5 for a quick 16.8k, were as it took me 14 minutes to gather 18k off balrons/sw/ancient wyrms [9 minutes difference] & shit load of bandages + [greature heal spells] both being as a tamer with 1 dragon, 1 white wyrm

I don't know if its an intentional change, but a BLOOD VORTEX giving nearly 2x the amount of a balron?

Of course Ive got the feeling that its due to the fact that my high ends drop reagents/jewlery too, but even killing a high end paragon is hard enough especially with just 1 vet, yet they only average around 2k gold?

I challenge anyone to try solo a shadow wyrm paragon with just yourself healing, & with/without DISCORDANCE, its still impossible, & youll receive around 2k for possibly 5/10 mins of grinding

Always said that dragons have bad drop.. No skill scrolls, just cleverly maps..

Elder and greater have ridicolous drop..sometime less then 1k? Maybe a rare drop?

Also in khaldun.. Guardiano of the doom almost isrant kill and were nerfed hard.. One time they gave vanq and reags.. Now just gold and shitty weap.. Maybe they have to givecmore SS? And good weqps?

Ala.. pLease. Add some good slayer weapons into mob loot..they are ultra rare and only from tmaps.
 
I notcied all of the above ^ and thought the setup was strange.. I made a tamer and got to Gm primarily to obtain pvp equipment and for some gold along the way. Once I got young dragons i killed blood elementals - alot of them. I got very few good weapon drops maybe i was unlucky but i only found a few weapons that were any good, maybe one or two vanqs and thats it really the rest were accurate weapons if any weapons at all. yes i did get tmaps ect.. anyways i thought to myself maybe when i get to the stronger monsters ill gets something better... now that i do balrons and and stronger things it still seems lacking as far as equipment and the gold isn't that great either... so i swtiched to fishing and now i get better equipment

well by killing 18k worth of AWs and Balrons you probably also got around 500 each reg which is good money.

Also, with a provo tamer you won't use a single bandage while killing balrons since they almost always spawn 2 at a time.

This being said, shame 5 is ridiculous good money, that's why pks come by every 10 minutes

Maybe a little off topic but a few months ago, the werewolves dropped 2 piles of 700-800 gold. nothing else.
It made it worth the risk of it all. Now they drop 1 pile of 700-800 gp & nothing else. Why did this happen? I didn't see it in any of the changes.

It would be nice if the werewolves drop more than a lich considering they can 2 hit u & run super fast.

what they should do is, for all the world spawners outside dungeons, make it any mob could randomly spawn anywhere lol get more gold out there!!!

They are the best provo archer spawn ever! If only they were worth farming still..

i am pretty sure their loot table was dropped after they were added to the silver slayer list, so they became to easy for archers i am sure....

Balrons..kaldun or dragons must get some new drop.. More SS..
Kinda let down that now the MotM dragon thing is over, they no longer have skill scrolls. Can't we give them SS? They have fire breath, and they insta-dispel any EV...they are one of the tougher caster mobs in the game. Destard is already crazy and fun, I think would make it even better.

Ahh from what I heard it was only during the MotM. I am noob, sorry=P I just have been killing a ton of them for leather, as I can't find anywhere to buy in bulk, and noticed I hadn't got any ss and assumed it was just from the motm...people in guild said dragons only dropped cause of that. I saw ettins dropping ss as well, Lol well thats good=) Thx for the info
