I have been at Zakum lately, and noticed an ongoing glitch just recently. It seems to me that Zakum is dropping far more zhelms than usual (around 6-8?) and it concerns me because -this could affect prices for those who sell them -there are people/guilds that will abuse this for personal benefits of helming and merching them -it could become bannable Discuss edit: Im on an itouch right now, and at most, I could upload fraps on the next run I attend, since my laptop doesn't have an SS key. edit 2: Dont say it's the ring, none of our people running returned from quiting or any hiatus (break) nor did 2x drop cast

I'm poor so this could benefit me. But i can see how this can be a big problem for a lot of people. I usually see it drop 3. but 6-8 is crazy.

it's the 50% drop ring. if it normally drops 4, +50% would make it 6. 8 sounds ridiculous... http://i.imagehost.org/0249/ssoritneverhappened.png

you wouldn't be "banned" for this since nexon did not say it's a glitch. players would NOT know if its a glitch or not, because the welcome back ring does give people 50% more drop rate. purely IMO, it's the welcome back ring and nexon probably put a wrong formula there or something. plus, u can only bring so much people into zak @ once and most people dont have the NX to sok z helms, so the price of z helm wouldn't rly drop much consider people only buy avr or above avr z helms nowadays. more helms == better stats, only sometimes but most of the time ~ 70% of the helms are under average

How could this be considered 'bad'? More ZHelms for the public, prices will drop due to increase in supply, demand will eventually go down because more people will have them, which will mean overall stronger adventurers walking around. Your daily dose of economics.

They had in patch notes that the drop rate for bosses would be dramatically improved -- I'm guessing it's related to this edit: nvm it's in relation to ep1 stuff

Hm, I'd also like to add to all the ring statements that he ring says "Returning maplers" which makes me think it can't be the ring since all the people at my runs were fairly active, thus not returning fro quiting or a possible hiatus. I guess DJP makes sense.

@tanner I don't take the time to look because I have a slow internet connection.
