Group Ironman is just around the corner on Oct 28. But before that let's check out the drop rates for the Gate of Elidinis!
Gate of Elidinis Drop Rates
Woooah Space Momma
Players have been cleansing the corruption from the Gate of Elidinis for just under a month and as mentioned in our Drop Rates blog, we aim to reveal drop rates approximately 4-6 weeks after launch.
Drop Mechanics
The Gate has a variety of materials, split into two reward buckets. For each cleansing of the Gate players will roll three times on the first bucket, then once on the second bucket and then a final roll on the rare item bucket (Runic Attuner/Memory Dowser/Scripture of Elidinis/Eclipsed Soul Prayer) for a total of four guaranteed rewards with a 1/120 chance of a 5th.
| Item | Drop Rate | Mechanics |
|---|---|---|
| Runic Attuner Memory Dowser Scripture of Elidinis Eclipsed Soul Prayer |
1/120 (drop table) 1/480 specific item) |
1/120 chance to hit the table, 25% chance of each unique drop. |
| Fragment of the Gate (Pet) | 1/1500 (with a threshold of 400) | A threshold of 400 means that every 400 cleanses the numerator of your pet chance will increase by 1. For example: at 399 kills, your pet chance will be 1/1500. At 400 kills your pet chance will be 2/1500 (or 1/750). At 800 kills, your pet chance will be 3/1500 (or 1/500~), and so on. |
| Latent Memory | 1/71 | Appears in the second item bucket. |
| After the Flood (Lorebook) | 1/10 | Has bad luck mitigation where your chance to gain this drop increases until it being near 100% by cleanse 15. |
As an additional bit of fun we have some data tidbits for you!
The first ten players to cleanse the Gate:
| Ralph Lee | Yung Padiwan | Iron Maht | monkeg222 | Alsang |
| Karmy | cameron2006 | RyanWXH | Yahzee | Milks PP |
- 2103 is the highest number of current cleanses by a single player.
- 1667 of you are now proud owners of Edie the Adorable.
- Sharktag was the first player to collect Edie, after only two cleanses. Now that's good luck!
- These three summons are your collective favourite helpers:
- Pak Yak
- Gargoyle
- Lava Titan
- Honourable mention to the Pak Mammoth, which players flocked to immediately after launch.
Finally, feast your eyes on this concept art from early in production!
Patch Notes
Fixes and Improvements in this Week's Game Update
With recent release of the Harvest Hollow and the upcoming launch of Group Ironman landing on the 28th of October, our focus has been on ensuring its functions and features are ready for launch.
To this end we are launching an engine update to support the GIM functions and held off releasing a handful of patch notes to avoid adding complications to the launch at this time. We intend to release these patches in the following weeks once we have GIM out the door. Thank you for you patience.
Hotfixed
- Resolved the randomness of the artefacts earned through Archaeology in the Harvest Hollow.
- Ancient remains now give players the bones that they have the least of.
- Tweaked the animation used, and positioning of players, when interacting with the summoning activity in the halloween hub, to improve performance in the area.
Engine
- Fixed a disruptive bug with chat.
- Engine support for upcoming Group Ironman game mode.
- Added memory optimisations focused around animation heavy areas.
- Improved animation system to reduce memory usage in newer areas.
