If that is the case then there’s no point in me farming. My luck is the highest it can be via guardian rank and you can’t disable it…

They were talking to us about it on Twitter three days ago but it’s been silent since. And it’s really sucky to be sitting here wondering what’s happening. I know it is a lot of work, I think I saw someone mention it was 900+ files to look through or the like, but it’s be nice to know whether it’s been extended, worked on or if there’ll be compensation.

I bet it’s more than 900. The game is too advanced for human control. Nearly impossible for there not to be an unwanted effect here and there. Tables on tables on tables on tables, and different for each character and each class mod, etc.

What I found helps more than anything else, is multiple players. Playing split screen with a dummy character will double your loot. If your main is wearing a luck stat, I’ve noticed an increased drop and quality rate for your dummy character… oddly.

Play split screen in “coopetition” mode to quickly level up the dummy character. Then switch to “cooperation” and your loot doubles. And an added bonus is now you have 2 banks at sanctuary for your loot.

Have you tried setting your group mode (Options, Triangle then D Pad down to select mode) To Coopetition?

I have seen better drops after doing this in M4 Normal such as a Fugitive Band of Sitorak (No Anointement) from unstoppable on 1st run. Only downside is you lose access to the lost loot bank.

I have stayed away from using any luck, either in Guardian ranks or on artifacts as the description refers to RARE drop rate, not Legendary. To my mind that is biasing your drops away from what you really want.

I get the same feeling with that luck stat, I farmed Wotan all day and got only 2 Kybs to drop lol then I found out that a x2 Westergun is just as good

Just did Mayhem 3 coopetition and got an anointed sitorak first try. So now I can farm it. And later on by myself I’ll drop down to Mayhem 1…I wonder how this effects mayhem 4 only drops?

I know this is obvious but … please make sure the hotfix is being applied before starting your farming sessions :innocent:

Good info, I have never dropped an “It’sPiss” Grenade so I’m off to hit up Konrads and will drop to M3 as I have always farmed in M4 Normal.

My M4 runs through TD during weekend only had 0-1 dedicated TD loot drop. M1-M2 I get about 3-5.

I wish I knew the math behind the madness errr mayhem. But I am getting what I need a lot fater on lower Mayhems in less runs and it is also less time consuming.

That’s on my list to do. I have a piss grenade already but want to get an anointed one. Zane needs all the boosts he can get xD

I always farm on M4 and “It’s piss” was one of my target, I did like 100 runs and piss was raining :rofl: only not many annointed it was the fastball that dropped a lot annointed. Also there was some difference beteween the first and the second day with a lot less legendary drops on the second day.

2 runs no piss yet but seeing more legendary on the approach using M3 normal, Tac Boom blaster, Tidal wave shotty etc, farming on.

#22

I lowered my Mayhem from 3 to 1 at the suggestion of a few people on another thread, it has worked the last 2 night as legendary gear is dropping like crazy from farming Graveward and the Takedown, well, up until Wotan, who I have been unable to beat.

I just mentioned to somebody else that I had been experiencing what you’re talking about on Xbox when I was Mayhem 3 using FL4K. It was suggested to me to change down to Mayhem 1 while I’m farming and it’s made a tremendous difference with the amount of legendary gear that’s dropping. I’ve farmed Graveward and Takedown over the past 2 nights doing this.

1st phase shoot shock under yellow shield, then spray with corrosive once shield is down. When shield is back up, run inside outer yellow shield and use shock to break outer shield. Once that is done, secondary inner, use the launch pads to launch shock at him from above. Once breaks, he will split, kill top half then use shock bring down remaining shield and finish him off.

Shock/Corr cutsman or scourage can make fight easy.

Also keep a mindful eye on the deathspheres, you usually know they are around when you start taking heavy damage. They also make noises you can recognize if you have headphones or good stereo.

Hope that helps.

Just farmed Unstoppable with Zane on tvhm/MH4 on PS4. About 20 kills and he showed up every time and dropped 1 Sitorak and 3 Big Boom Blasters. Unfortunately, none were anointed. Interestingly, all the good drops were in the first 10 or so runs then it went dry. Not sure that means anything since these are relatively small numbers. Will try again another time 'cuz I’d like an anointed Sitorak.
