Does anyone know? After 13076 kills at bubblings, I've only found one shield :O I know this because I started at 0 % D: XX hours at Bubbling and only one shield? D: Just today I hunted there 4 hours nonstop without finding a single one D: Now I've found all possible dropable equips several times. (Only 3 Fish spears),2 Scrolls and 30+ Monster cards. What is wrong? And then I talk to people in guild who found 3 shields in 4 hours... Wtf? Anyone else have this problem? -_-

LOL! I got super lucky... O.o I had just started at cube slimes, and one dropped with in a minute(I didn't even use 2x). Then I asked guild if I should keep looking for more maple shields, they said yes. So I used 2x and another dropped! I got 2 maple shields to drop in 5 minutes. I was amazed. I mean, I had killed bubblings in kerning for a long time. Then I trained a lot and stopped looking for shields. Then I just decided to try again for a few, and 2 dropped. By the way, I was on my new aran. For some reason my arans are freaking lucky. On my level 71 Aran, I made 330m from drops in a 2 week period.

Ok, so I was actually training on bubblings on my level 24 mage. After 15 mins, I get my first maple shield and I am soo happy! I continue training, and literally 2 minutes after, another one! On 1x too!

[quote] mazori : Gotta love the 4hour 2x drop card. [/quote] complete waste of money. 2x drop and even 4x drop are crap. the whole situation is a scam. look, let's say you have a 1% chance (one out of every 100 kills on avg) of getting a mapleshield. that's WAY over estimating it. Just using it as an example so we don't have to go into fractions. but yeah, so you've got a 1% chance, then u buy a 2x drop card. oh WOW! you just got a 2% chance now. w00 h00! a 98% chance still exists that you won't get crap. so you've spent that money on nx and accomplished nothing. let's say you use a rep 2x drop buff. now you have 4x! omg! no wai! that's now a 4% chance of getting a drop. there's a 96% chance that you still won't get a damn thing! w00t w00t! yay! >.> 2x exp is what people should use their rep on. 2x drop does nothing. remember, i was using 1% as a number. the real numbers for a chance at something like a mapleshield are more like 1/100th of 1%, or .01%. doubling numbers that are that low does nothing except waste your money. save your money or buy a 2x exp card instead.

DAM U GUYS ARE LUCKY! When i search for stuff like chaos scrolls or m-sheilds I never get ANY its ******* stupid! I hear all these good stories about people getting 2 chaos scrolls in 2 minutes but when I go for 2 hrs on 2x i get nothing! ive spent 10-20 hours on 2x drop and i get nothing. And dont you find it weird that many of the people that find good drops are people that have lots of mesos and nx so they don't need it and poor people never get anything! **** you nexon! Edit: Like above he seems like he has lots of money and is a high lvl he gets 1+ and i get 0 in like 30 hrs
