Hawkeye Empress Cape Drop Rate

Hi guys, I'd like to know how often does Hawkeye drop the empress cape and also, would 65% additional drop rate ( cores+friend using DC) and a big spider buff on myself since I will be the one killing it be enough for it to drop? If not I'm leaning towards buying nx just for 2x drop so I can finally get this cape. Thoughts?

Drop rates are extremely low. I've killed all the knights at least once some twice , and only gotten 3 capes. (about 6 kills)
This was all on like 5-7x drop. depending on how drop rates stack

This. Killed him 5 times all with 65% drop rate (45% core+demon cry friend) and a big spider.
Bad luck for me...

Above.
I did 2 Runs with Unemploy and the first time dropped 4 shoulders and the 2nd dropped 2.
It's very unlikely it drops 0 IMO.

Killed 3 Hawkeye, 2 gloves dropped. All three on 2x. Clearly there's a conspiracy against me.

[quote=ItzATrapp]So since shoulders are so easy to get, what's the current p/c on them?[/quote]

From what i've seen in the fm its like 500~700m to get for the ones i've seen (in bera anyway), kinda suprised cape prices haven't dived into the floor yet, seeing as a party of 6 can literally just go in and completely DESTROY any of the knight's in question provided they have enough hp (as the only one who even presents any sort of challenge is Mihile, but even he isn't bad as long as you have hb or a naturally high hp total and pot every hit)

[quote=lazershock]Evo empress has a much higher drop rate, as far as I know you almost ALWAYS get at least 1 shoulderpad

OT: I've killed Mihile and Irena once each with 20% drop core + big spider, no capes yet; still working on that. Friend killed Mihile and gets a cape and glove without any drop modifiers (on his first run)[/quote]

Empress Cygnus may sometimes drop 0 shoulders. I have entered with 4x and 55% drop eqp and 20% core and so far only 2 of my runs had no shoulder drops while the others dropped 1-4. Most likely 0-5 shoulders can drop from her.

[quote=lBishopXl]I've killed 3 instructors: Mihile, Irena, and Oz. No drops at all. I had 10+% Drop Core and Big Spider on all runs. I'm pretty unlucky. I'm hoping for better luck when I fight Evo Empress.[/quote]

I got a cape, on my first try, only 10% drop, and 20% from demon cry.

I did 2 different minions and neither dropped.
25% drop core and 2x drop easter buff
maybe I was just unlucky.

Well I got one cape out of 3 runs so far but that might just be lucky. Definitely worth it imo though if you can solo
