Change the Drop Rate

[erebos]

i've being trying to set tthe drop rate on my server thru the ascent.conf file increasing the multiplyer for DROP, but when i get to the game it dowsnt matter how high i set it up still the same drop, what i want is like in other servers you start on silvermoon and you kill the first mob and you get a lot of items, on mine i only get the ones that always appear on regular wow and i wonder how can i fix this so it can have a improved loot

[mafiaboy]

can you post your ascent.conf file?

 * How to use this config file:                                                 *
 * Config files are in a block->variable->setting format.                       *
 * A < signifies the opening of a block, the block name is expected after that. * 
 * After the block name, a space and then the settings sperated by = / ' '.     *
 *                                                                              *
 * e.g.                                                                         *
 * <block setting="0" someval = "1">                                            *
 *                                                                              *
 * Comments can be in C format, e.g. /* some stuff */, with a // at the start   *
 * of the line, or in shell format (#).                                         *

# Log Level Setup
#
#    Console Logging Level
#        This directive controls how much output the server will
#        display in it's console. Set to 0 for none, or -1 to disable.
#        -1 = Disabled; 0 = Minimum; 1 = Error; 2 = Detail; 3 = Full/Debug
#        Default: 3
#
#    World server packet logging feature
#        If this directive is turned on, a file called `world.log`
#        will be created in the server's directory and all packets
#        sent and received by clients will be dumped here in bfg
#        format.
#        Default: 0

#        Default: 100
#
#    PlrUpdateDistance
#        This directive controls the distance (internal yards) that the player can "see" up to
#        and receieve updates for. For smaller servers, you can probably increase this number.
#        Increasing this number will also increase the servers bandwidth consumption and CPU usage.
#        Default: 80
#
#    Motd
#        This message will be displayed by the server in the chat
#        box every time any user logs on. Colors can be used in the

#
#    Send Build On Join
#        This directive controls whether the server's internal revision

#        testers report bugs.
#
#    Send Stats On Join
#        This directive controls whether the server will send the online player
#        count to a cilent when it enters the world.

#        water checks by enabling this directive.
#        Default: 1
#
#    Speedhack detection
#        If this directive is turned on, speedhack detection will be activated and speedhackers
#        will be warned / kicked.
#        Default: 0
#
#    Level Cap
#        This variable controls the level that stats will be generated up to internally.
#        Beyond this level players can still see a higher level visually but their stats won't
#        increase beyond this point.
#        Default: 60
#
# Expansion 1 Level Cap
#    This variable does the same thing as Level Cap above, except it applies to those who
#    have the first expansion: The Burning Crusade.
#    Default: 70
#
#    Seperate Channels Control
#        This directive controls whether horde and alliance chats will be seperated across channels.

#        across channels.
#        Default: 0

#
#    Queue Update Rate
#        This directive controls how many milliseconds (ms) between the updates
#        that the queued players receieve telling them their position in the queue.

#    Kick AFK Players
#        Time in milliseconds (ms) that a player will be kicked after they go afk.
#        Default: 0 (disabled)
#
#    Connection Timeout
#        This directive specifies the amount of seconds that the client will be disconnected
#        after if no ping packet is sent. It is advised to leave it at the default.
#        Default: 180
#
#    Realm Type
#        This is the realm type that will be used by the server to handle world pvp.
#        Default: 0 (pve)(RPPVE)
#        Other values: 1(pvp)(RPPVP)
#
#    AdjustPriority
#        Set the server to high process priority?

[mafiaboy]

alright I had the same problem. You put too much of a big number. Don't go past 7 digits.

9999999 will give you the maximum drop rate and will work
it will also get you instant 70 if you put the same number for xp if you want.

[erebos]

lol let me give it a try

[erebos]

it didn't work im still having the same problem the drop rate sucks and the items mobs drop to even the ones on outlands

[mismatchedsocls]

well first off if u only change that drop value in ur conf file then u'll only drop the items u'd see from regular wow. however if u open ur database ad edit the loot tables, u can make a mana wyrm drop full t6 if u want.
