I hear a lot of people saying that after the most recent patch (like a few days ago--9/22 or 23) that you now will not get many, if any at all, green drops unless you are grouped with other players. I have gone farming in SF since the patch a couple times and have not gotten anything--prior to patch, gotten a green once in every 3-4 tries. Anyone else noticing this oddity?

I go with Mhenlo and get 1 green every 2 runs on average. I kill 3 bosses every run, also.

I just did a couple of runs with henchies a couple of hours ago, like 7 runs if I remember. I walked out with 1 green, the Shadestone.

I seriously think they completely changed the drop rate system. It used to seem that you could get a gangload of drops for soloing. Now, it seems, that the more henchmen you have, the less drops you get. And also, when you solo, you don't get jack. I used to take my W/R out and solo and I got 3 sup runes in 15 minutes. After the update, I went all over the place, including SF, and got, maybe, 5 drops in 2 hours?

Well I am running around killing 4-5 bosses each run--haven't gotten squat in 3 days now!
Thanks for the input!

I have to say I noticed this as well, just didn't read anything on it as far as being applied with the latest patch. I've done at least a dozen runs with 4 Henchmen through SF and 6 or 7 solo in the Crystal Desert. Out of all that I csme away with 1 Sup. Rune. Prior to this I was bagging a gold just about every run through Diviner's Ascent and a green every other time through GF/SF, clearing each map.
I hadn't been through the latter very many times as I only started farming the area. Personally I think it sucks. I know they are trying to fix what might be viewed as a mistake but now it was basically "first come first served." You didn't get there on time you loose out.
The only good thing I'm getting out of farming GF/SF now is managing around 3k each run to fund my Grotto armor purchases. Since I'm only a Ranger, my abilities to solo farm those areas aren't as great. :)
