Ideal drop rate COEMU V2

[dothackking]

I was looking for a drop rate about 2x the drop rate before TQ lowered it (relating to quality and db/met drops.) What should I set the rates to in order to achieve this?

Drop rates in CoEmu do not use a simple number modifier (100x rates or whatever). You do each drop type individually (unless you re-code it to work otherwise)

personally I have a global rate coded for mets, db's, +1's, ref/uni/elite/super and blesses.. that way I can keep my rates consistent across drops/lotto/mb's but that's just me..

Go to your Entities>monster.cs file and search for either the met or db ID and you should find how the drops are currently coded in your coemu version (should be using something along the lines of

if(Calculation.percentsucces(10)
drop handling for mets

You will need to change those percent success rates to reflect how often you want specific rare items to drop.

NOTE: By default coemu has nested calculations (so chance that mobs will drop something, chance it will be quality, chance it will be a rare item (met/db/etc)) so simply doing 10 pct rate for mets doesn't mean 1/10 mobs drops it... it means 1/10 items that drop will be a met... assuming no other if statement has already been called and a bunch of other conditions have been met.

Ideally I'd clean it up alot more so that you can control specific items alot easier but it's a bit of work to do and get done properly.

Thank you for the quick response. I didn't imagine my friend would have trouble finding the drop rate (I never finish anything, so if I coded it myself...well, it'd be left half done), I was more wondering what would be a stable set of percentages to emulate about 2x the pre-drop rate decrease drop rate.(but it looks like, from what you said, I may just have to test it and edit it as I see fit) I shall relay the information on how to find it, for sure.

are you making a private server with a low drop rate? if so can i and some buddy's of mine join?
