Nostalrius Begins - Quality wow vanilla realm (1.12)

Droprates are way too high, you get too much green and BOE from mobs. Even a green item should be rare.
You should take a look at the droprates, seems a bit high for vanilla.

Agreed, it seems off. Looting two greens in one mob isn't even rare. Can we get attention to this asap? The struggle of Vanilla is Vanilla.

I dunno, but im level 24 and i havent got a single 2 green drop and i got about 15-20 greens. Arent you guys just incredibly lucky?

Could be, we'd have to hear more testimony and only data-mining can prove that something's off. However, it's been consistent. Lately I loot about one rare per level as well, doesn't seem right.

It could be worth monitoring what types of mobs you are killing if you feel you're looting an exaggerated amount. I'll be collecting data for a few levels starting now. As of writing this I've looted 4 greens two bars into my new level.

I have grinded 1-32 and not even exaggerating but I have easily picked up near 100 boe green items and only 1 blue item. I also got a level 43 plate helmet from the snapjaws in alterac last night but I also picked up a level 19 belt from them also..

My observation is so far that yes it does need a little tweaking but it's not necessarily game breaking at these levels - it might pose a problem end game though?

Just my two cents.

Well it's most unfortunate if uncommon items (greens) become so common that it kills the market for them. AH and trade is a big part of the game. And yes, end game the consequences would be more severe. If it is indeed off the economy of the server will be greatly impacted, and time is of the essence.

I'm only lvl 14 atm so I didn't notice something wrong about this yet, but it could be nice to check and fix the droprates...
On some others private servers where it was also bugged, it was pretty common to loot blue items... (sometimes 2 in a row) or to loot a BOE green item lvl 40 on a mob level 30 for example...

It just ruins the Vanilla experience, because everyone is just over-stuffed with a lot of blue items and all the greens items (BOE or quest rewards) lose their interest.

It also ruins the economy, because a blue item will be sold at the AH for like 1-2 gold instead of 10 or more on retail vanilla servers...

It should be uncommon, not rare
And I'm lvl 14 and I don't have any single green, only from quest reward (

this is as well a common mangos bug, green items in the low areas tend to drop with abnormal chances..
