Eckhart on Evo Lab.

Alright. I bought his core and use it on Evo lab. I've managed to kill him but he didn't drop anything other than 3-4 Evo coins. Then I went to link 3 and started killing, and there i saw a green core dropped, its Eckhart again. Killed him again but he dropped the same. I saw shadow cygnus dropping shoulders and everything, but how come eckhart didn't drop any of equips? the core says he drops them.. Thanks in advance. Also P/C this please?

@MeMagicalPie: yes i know, but when its available again, can you access it if you're over lv100?

I have 5k coins saved, but I won't use them until I see solid proof that they are indeed dropping the equips.

[quote=TheTrickst3r] how do you get so much drop? I'm farming coins atm so any tips would be really helpful[/quote]

5.76x drop is: 2x drop card + 2x easter buff + 1.2xdrop from MPE pendant + 1.2drop Phantom Card.
11.52x drop is the same + 2x drop event.
For tips, just do the bosses at lvl 190+ After that it's just a DPS race to kill them. (except for mihile that casts DR when HP reaches below 70%)

The evo world chief knights drops them. The real ones don't.

[quote=InQbus]@SirJayGatsby So he did this AFTER the unleashed patch? I find it amazing he needed that many drop buffs, and runs to get one equip... That's kinda depressing actually [/quote]

Yeah, he did it after the Unleashed patch. I think the date was 7/28/13 or whatever (just to clarify). And yeah, he had all those buffs on and only got 1 think. I'm asking if he has Drop % as an inner potential because I know he does Evo and that boss near Magnus for easy money but he's afk in the fm for the night.

Empress/Instrustors DO drop equips. This is just like when people thought the anniversary boxes were broken and did not give Empress Equips but myself and others got ~4 equips in 1k Boxes.

Back to the point, my friend went this week and got an overall after 5 runs with Mutant Pig, 2x Drop and a 1.5x Drop buff. I'm not sure what that totals out to but I think you guys can get them too if he did.

drop rate is broken in evo world. empress/minions do not drop equips.

Currently the drop rate is glitched (trust me, i've done multiple runs on EXTREMELY high drop multipliers to test it)

Im sure it'll be fixed eventually but the chief knight's drop every equip except for the shoulderpad (Data-Cygnus drops this) and Weapons (only real Cygnus drops this) including the cape.

When Evolution world was released, the Instructors and Cygnus dropped the equips and shoulders. Getting a drop on 1x was very rare. At that time I was doing runs on
5.7x drop and I was getting capes on 3 out of 5 runs.
After Unleashed, the drops seems to be glitched. I haven't gotten a single equip from them. I'd even tried on 11.5x drop 4 times and nothing dropped.

@mwang27:
@Thade: Pre-Unleashed they were really easy. 1.65b HP + boss damage worked on them. (real V2 ignore boss damage)
Post-Unleashed, they are somewhat hard. Not because they hit hard, (although they kinda do) but because their HP increased to 6.3b hp and their defense got doubled. At first I thought Boss damage was not working because my damage was cut in half, but it was because of the defense buff.

Are you sure if they drop at all? I've tested a total of 7 empress cores now that were done after each sc/patch on 4x drop. None of which dropped a single shoulder.

@rockboarder In evolution system, the instructors can drop pre-crafted capes in addition to the rest of the armor. They are different than the normal versions.

@spongebox He's right the droprate is painfully low, but it started a little before unleashed. I remember alliance complaining that they weren't getting drops anymore from them and it was definitely before their hp went super high. I killed hawkeye during a 2x event with my mutant ribbon pig familiar out + a 30% drop rate core on, and I got only coins, so you have to really hope luck is on your side when you kill them now.
