It is horribly auction these mass of items. Devs do something it is no fun spending so often 40 min to it.
Maybe maybe reduce the droprate of crapp drops would help. At the Moment it is no fun leading a raid. Maybe i did it too often :D

What the hell... the dragon gives more drops and u cry?
Just remove the crap next time and you wont be overextended.
If you can not handle it, stop leading :P


no flame plz


No flame? You are the flamer... doing a dragonraid and cry about too many drops... what a shame...

Not everyone love pvm like you and farm all day, because there is something, that's called RvR. I know you have no clue about it and that's okay - it's your style. But there are many ppl, who only want stones for respec. Especially with the increase of the Bountypoint-Stones they have to go to Dragonraid, too. Just think about it, before you tell another joke, dude...

in my opinion just start bids on respec stones and usable 100qua items, give the rest to leaders for leading tbh.

whats the point in bidding for items no one wants anyway.

Still enough. Don't forget Legion drops the same amount.

Damn. I've tried to come up with a decent reply but the facts are:

England, the "leader" that LD's himself when there's noone else around to organize groups, made a request for a lower droprate because it takes him too much time to sort them out.

Blue, the technical administrator of Uthgard, lowered it as per England's request.

And all I can come up with is:

Nah, it drops 2 stones less on average. Not a big deal. A minor change. Theres still the chance that up to 18 full/ra respec stones will drop though it has variances.

Well, those two stones actually matter. I'm pretty sure you've seen price increase with respec stones and the issue is that there's no sign of them lowering any time soon.

Also, about the BP costs. Why didn't you just remove the stones from merchants instead of increasing the price? That way supply and demand would have fixed a price for them and it would have been better than the artificial one based on 1 BP = 1 GP. :)

Those 2 stones do not matter as I have set the previous drop amount out of the gut. It was not a scientific calculated count.

Because we are neat guys.

As of now England isn`t a DragonRaid Leader in Albion anymore (no, not just because of this thread, some other reasons also count into our decision).
We, the Albion DragonRaid-Staff, apologize to the community about the issue caused by this thread.
Since the other DR-Leaders of Albion don`t have a problem with more drops we respectfully ask the Uthgard-Staff to roll back the drop-rate of respec-stones to the amount that was before this request came up.

Kind regards,
Your Albion DragonRaid-Staff

No one on Hibernia complained that too many drop. More drops just mean more people can get something. :)

First I thought this thread is a joke. Now I realize that it's not and I'm not rlly amused. I neither have seen the Staff reacting that fast yet on a change request of a single player... Even though it's a minor change, the whole way this change occured is rlly dubious.
