1.5x drop rate event (24hrs, weekly/ bi-weekly)

[opman]

To have a weekly (or bi-weekly) 1.5x drop rate event for 24hrs, excluding meso bag drop rate.

Using the past event rates, such as 1.5x drop rate, I believe is an appropriate benchmark to start off with. 

By having a weekly/ bi-weekly event (ideally on a weekend), it may help spur some necessary gear progression as compared to past events lasting only once every few months/years. In doing so, players would have some or if not, better odds at hunting their desired item. As for classes such as warriors and bows, this could mean a possibility of lesser meso burn while hunting their job specific items and maybe a chance to profit off miscellaneous drops.

 

Thanks to mah homies for the discussion.

I'm not sure about biweekly or weekly but during event "seasons" like summer, christmas, etc it'll probably happen about every week for a couple weeks. When it's not those specific times i'm unsure currently.

 

I wanted to do some adjustments to Exp/Drop events before I start hosting them which those changes will be included in v58.

I understand that the norm is usually to have drop rates events behind major annual events as mentioned above, but what is proposed for, is to have something on a continual basis (plus point for potential newcomers/ exisiting) where players can progress slightly better throughout the year rather than experiencing this effect every 1 or 2 events per year.
