Oh wow...that's a hell of a nerf.  Rare enemies just got a lot less exciting.

I don;t understand.
Despite having higher base damage, golden skeletos doesn't have pa boost compared to vitace reacher. Maybe it's my error, but what makes this whip is 190+ drop while vitace is one rank lower.

Let's see what event would provide mobs listed above, since new s4 missions are unlikely added atm.

Golden Skeletos has a 30% PA boost.

So, and genuine question here. What's the rationale behind such crippling nerfs to the drop rates? Who possibly thought this was a good idea? It's like looking at babby's first attempt at balance by just ungabunga clubbing big numbers into little numbers.

Not only were the previous rare enemy drop rates too high for normal missions, but they were ridiculously too high for events like Protectors Zeta and Kappa. Rare enemies are way more common in these event missions. They had to be reduced heavily or else they would quickly lose all value and flood the market. Anyway, if they end up being too low for whatever reason, they can always be changed again.

"Too high for normal missions." Said a bare handful of people ever in regards the previous rates.

That aside, maybe it's just me and I've got bizarre sensibilities, but, and hear me out here, maybe introducing an event in one breath and then immediately after in another telling everyone you're slashing the drop rates to in most cases 1/3 or less of previous rates is kind of a turbo dick move. Also, since extremes seems to be the only method of balancing the team understands, I'd rather a flood than a drought.

Regarding the drought and the dehydration that can result, I think that some had Koltova Milk, try to see on discord if you can buy one.
