    But once they get the item, it's over. No more returning to camp unless they're helping a friend get it too. Sure, the first few days these camps will be packed, but hopefully it will dissipate over time. Hopefully....

    Which is why they have most likely made it so that Argus will drop more, maybe even much more. To make the monster drop an EX version of its item some times, but not increase the drop rate is very illogical. In addition, if they were not adjusting the drop rate, they would not have said "The way [insert item name] is acquired has been adjusted," they would have merely said "When trying to obtain [insert item name], a player may receive a RARE/EX item with the same attributes."

    It seems more like a move to lower prices than one to fill camps even more and piss people off.

    the wording " in addition players may receive" is what makes me think it will be one or the other, an possibly neither. but if it is going to be like how you say it will be. you gotta be kidding yourself if your gonna camp here for 4+ hours to fight a mob who drops nothing. an then keep doing it til you get it?

    " yay to nomore gil sellers in ordelles cave"??? that just means they are monopalizing someplace else more.. we didnt win anything with that one.

    That's a godsend. I might want to level RNG now since I'd be able to get a peacock charm, leaping boots, and an emperor hairpin without all of hte botters. And...if they change the Emp Pin or somehting to rare/ex, all will be rare/ex from now on, not just the ones that drop from now on. This is to reduce ppl monopolizing off of campnig them.
    you thought camping for 4 hours was torture when it didnt drop an item you can sell. how do you think its gonna feel when you spend that much time on a mob an it drops nothing.

    ohh how the M"F'ers are gonna fly

    Or, these items will drop more often. I doubt they'll change the monster they drop off of.

    so you may get the real things you may not. so now season campers are basically going to pick up an move to another NM. another thing is look for the price of the emp pin an the leapin boots, an sniper rings to go tru the roof. stupid alternative

    Probably a Camp of 10 people 1 day, will be completely different people the next day.
    absolutely right on ^^ it will be like people camping for other rare/ex things currently in game ^^ like BQ ring etc, cept that you wont need pop items at all ^^

    Re: July 18th Patch Notes

    Great great updates ^^ looking forward to this.

    >>> Not sure where u guys are getting this... but they 'did not' say that your emp hairpin, archers etc ect will turn 'rare/ex' or 'ex'.... they just said that the 'original monsters' that dropped these items... will no longer drop them, instead they will drop new items that 'are rare/ex or ex'.

    >>> Absolutely more people will camp these ^^ If you've been waiting for over a year to get one of these, of course u'd want to try and get a rare/ex or ex version of these gears. I am personally in no hurry to get them, so I will wait until the first wave of campers have gotten their equipment and then take a crack at these ^^ if you have no 'urgent' need of the item, an alternative would be to wait to get these new replacement items... or explore and find out how you can get the original items via the new method! Hey, maybe you'll be the first on your server to get them via the new 'method' SE mentioned ^^

    You can exp on bullbegger Opo-opo and den scorpions too after dropping down the hole. There are 2 safe camp spots with plenty of opos and scorpions to pull. Only problem is opos and scorpions tend to run out too fast as well if both PTs kill really fast. It's quite a good and unknown leveling spot for lv. 70-72.
