Default Do not allow gnoll fangs to drop if killed by a level 18 and above

Can we just have this silliness stopped? Why cant a level 7 go into Black burrow and have a good time, expecting to have a few mobs to kill? Instead we have to contend with level 18 plus peeps wiping the zone in search of the gnoll fang. Or higher level folks grouping with their buddies and wiping the zone, letting the lower level person loot.

This isn't Live where people don't care about the community any longer. Making people log because there is nothing to kill can't be described as community friendly behavior.

Just nerf the damn things so that they don't drop if a level 19 or higher was on the hate list at the time of death.. or to be a bit more friendly, dont let it drop if the level 19 made the kill.

if (mob is blue) && (Character.Level > 18) then
Fang.DropChance = 15
Else
Fang.DropChance = 0
End if

Every day I am in BB its the same crap, and its tiresome

If its been said before, sorry. I am just aggravated by it.

Yeah I know I can fight somewhere else. Yeah I know I can log on a different guy. but the point is, why should I have to? If there are 7 people in the entire zone, there should be mobs to kill, I would hope.

What part of level 22s dominating Blackburrow is classic? I certainly don't remember that on live.

I'm with the bug crowd: if fangs had been that good for level 22s, we would have had level 22s dominating Blackburrow on live too. We didn't though, which makes me think that the fang experience for higher-level characters is too good here.

I have done Black Burrow gnoll fangs many times (collect fangs from lvl 4-12, then turn all of them in at once).. The exp from turn in falls off pretty hard in the late teens.

at level 22, your time would be much better spent grinding DB's solo or in a group.

But that's not my decision to make, its his/hers.

They nerfed the bard mail quest (used to be able to get a full level at L1, and with more cash).

They nerfed the scorpion pincer quest a couple of days after Kunark launched. I'm not convinced it was ever that broken during Kunark but I can't find prof [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Why not nerf the BB fang quest? Give the zone back to the lowbies.

Just increase spawn rate to 30 seconds on all gnolls. Then everyone can play in the zone.

Taking away the exp is one thing but people should always be able to get the faction hits from the turn ins
