Updating the droptable viewer (dropchances)

31 July 2020 - 09:48 AM

Hello fellow Alora gamers,

 

This is something I've been wondering about ever since I started playing the server;

When you view the droptable of a monster, the droprates will show up in percentage droprate (e.g. 0.2%) which is pretty impractical in my eyes.

To figure out the droprate, you'd have to manually calculate it everytime, and for some droprates you won't even get the exact dropate (example; some droprates can show as 1/1276,451 depending on the droprate percentage of an item).

 

My suggestion is that instead of showing the dropates in percentages, it should be shown with the exact droprate value. Here's an example of my suggestion:

Please note the droprate version inside the red box.

 

I actually spoke to Omicron about the % droprates too and he told me that "it was just easier this way" but I just don't see how. Why would you want to spend time to manually convert the rates instead of just having to click on the droptable viewer and instantly seeing the actual droprate?
(I don't have anything against Omicron, just putting it out there. He's a very down-to-earth person).

 

I've also spoken to a bunch of players in-game and they all agreed that this idea would be much better and easier to use.

 

Please let me know what you think. If you'd like to see this change, I'd appreciate a comment or an upvote to show support so we can hopefully have this implemented.

Thank you for reading my suggestion and have a great day.  <3
