No Recipe Drops Since Maintenance This Morning!
Don't feel bad gromar, you're not the only one, there are several players that are having the same issues, if not all players.
The "management" is aware as well, during a bugged TF we had a GM come to free the stuck npc, after helping he/she replied asking if there was anything else they could do. I stated, no & ty, unless you can do something about the non-existant recipie drop rate.
After about 5 minutes or so, i figured they we're going to answer, i wasn't really looking for one either, just being sarcastic.
They did however answer with a "no comment" , have a nice game play..yada, yada, yada...nc soft support.
Several players are tracking their drop rates, like myself, in team, solo, different characters & accounts, with difficulty settings changed each run.
I've tried farm maps, radios, whole mission arcs, orbouros missions, task forces, strike forces, street sweeping in open zone, both sided & co-op zones.
Most times on my main account i end up with only recipies from the costume pieces pool.
the second account usually ends up with some regular i.o. recipie, but just 1 for the map.
neither account gets recipies from mission end bonuses.
So, here it is now monday, with the recipiesdrop rate still obviously broke & bugged, still no official reply from a red name on the forums, just rumors of 'person a pm'd person b' in game, and was aware of the numerous posts.
my concern is no longer the recipie drop rates, but the "management" keeping hushed about it & why?
I played several characters last night solo and on teams. Recipe drops were low - about what people have been reporting in the forums. Last night I played my level 41 fire/energy blaster on +0 level, +2 heroes, no av, +boss. I got a few recipes.
I logged in around 8am Pacific and played until around 11 am on the fire/energy smae settings. Nemesis and Rularuu door missions (at least 10) and several hunts and street sweeping. Inspirations were dropped normally. Enhancements seemed really low compared to last night. In those 3 hours I didn't get 1 recipe. Not one!
I had fun but it was so frustrating to finish a tough mission and not even get an end of mission drop.
I asked in broadcast if anyone was having similar issues but no one responded. Has anyone else seen this? Devs pleeeaseee fix the recipe drops!
