Re: Farming Question...
I've always felt that certain drops were tied to certain things.

For instance, some days you go into Rolanberry Fields, and 4/5 crawlers drops thread. On that same day, beehive chips - normally a common drop - drop 1 in 4. Now maybe the next time you log on, Beehive chips will be neigh constant, and after an hour, you have 1 silk thread.

Obviously, I don't have evidence and numbers. But it certainly seems like certain items get in "common drop" mode. I wouldn't be surprised if they just assigned every item an element, and based off of it's relationship to the current day (strong, weak, neutral), modified it's drop rate %. Likewise, they could've assigned every item a moon phase. So certain items prefer certain phases.

Hey, at least I try...
