Greed Pendant and Rhino Mpe Spawn

Does the Rhino even spawn anymore? Been trying to get a greed pendant for extra cube drops and easier Firepower Cases..

Except I had someone say that it spawned (They had gotten their pendant ages ago) about 10~20% of the time. Yet after 25 MPE Runs. No rhino. Is 25 lowballing? Should I be persevering more?

Is there a level limit for MPE?

Regular monster park rhino doesn't drop it, but there's a chance to get the greed pendant in the boxes as well.
People will argue that the Greed Pendant only affects gear drop (when equipped) and not item(s) drops like what you intend to use it for. I seem to get more drops of everything to be honest, but who knows?

[quote=itzaflyingdodo]Unconfirmed by nexon, but findings in this thread shows that the greed pendant might not even affect the drop rate for cubes and FP cases.

It only increases drop rate for equipment.

@ando2112: 60 tickets
Not 60k. My bad, it's a habit xD

[quote=hualicious]It's not only the Rhino spawn you need to worry about, you need to have decent drop rate as well. Bring a familiar and hunt during 2x events, you really don't want a Rhino not drop a pendant after you finally got a spawn. You can be unlucky and need 20~30 tickets to get a Rhino spawned.

On my WA I was lucky during one 2x event, I found like 8 pendants. [/quote]

Did just have my first Rhino spawn after my 31st ticket. But seeing as I only do the 3 tickets a day per character. (Plus extra tickets from the bosses if lucky) then farming during 2x will be hard.

@itzaflyingdodo: You're quite right, those findings indicate that Greed Pendant doesn't affect item drops...darn

Also after you got a pendant, equip it on that character and farm for more.

I'd say the spawn chance is like 5-10%

@ando2112: Oh sorry, my bad! I hope you find the correct one soon.

[quote=maplerescue]I found that Rhino in Monster Park Extreme is a lot harder to find than if you do regular Monster Park. He'll spawn in the third or so map. You'll get a bonus stage at the end and a chance to get boxes which might contain an Avarice Pendant.[/quote]

When I was doing the Sylph ring event for 3 different characters, the very first time I went into regular Monster Park, Rhino spawned for all 3 characters. Thought that was a weird coincidence.
Good luck though!

[quote=natty2]Yes.
I saved up nearly 60k tickets (6 slots mannnn) on my Blaze Wiz.
when I did them all at once, I encountered Rhino like, once every 20 runs (personal estimation) and I got 2 greeds, and about 10 gold MPE pot.[/quote]

That's 600 Runs right? That's a lot of effort for just a pendant. Especially 'cause i'm not farming tickets. Just doing the 3 a day on 4 different Characters
