Well i'm tired of killing Elshira to get spider staff and get nothing, can't JLH up the chances of droping for some bosses to 30-50% ?? (heard its about 10%)
 
What u guys think, it's fair, isn't it?
 
What about other bosses? Never tried them...

Elshira is a bish, i killed a good 20-30 times in the span of a few weeks to no avail.
Jimmy killed her twice, dropped both times.
 
The Captain is a bastid.  I killed him 37 times in 5 days w/o the slightest hint of a drop.  Jen and Chris went 2 hours after the last time I had killed him.  He dropped.  I haven't gone since. (I got ring or misteltoe that hour though so i can cry...too much)
 
You've just got to get lucky.  Him posting the drop %s wouldn't hurt anyone, I don't think.  However, I don't see the need to make the whole game a big math orgy.

gah don't whine or i'll start telling again on how many kills it took me to get my second spyglass Tongue
 
it's fine just bad luck.  
 
wait my spyglass story might be interesting.
 
my second spyglass took me around 78 kills. my third one took me 1 kill my 4th took me around 30ish and my 5th took me 2 kills.
 
the captain has a drop chance of 2% it's all luck. and i've been lucky cuz in theory captain should drop around the enxt 200 kills i get on him lol (10 spyglasses and around 300 kills (prolly a few less but it's a nice round number)

2% suggests 2 out of each 100 kills.  1:50.  Right?  Or is playing nightmist honestly making me this nutsty at math? (you cannot blame Jurian if his math is pos, he's a dyslexic dutchman)

let's c if it drops once every 50 times and i got 10 i should be at 500 kills right? now as i said i'm somewhere around 300 kills. mean captain shouldn't drop the next 200 times to get back to the 2% drop chance.
 
don't blame everlast for making a weird post. he's jsut not really bright Tongue

I re-read your post thourougly and see where i got confused.  I find some of your sentences hard to understand, my mistake.  Ya, he drops more than 2% it would seem.
