    Hey,

    Krex is pretty much dead right now.
    I don't remember the last time I saw a group for him.

    Adding his almighty ring will give us a reason to run him,
    and make it more common.

    The stats are 1-3, so it won't change the current balance.

    Almighty Ring isn't an item from the pre-bb era. In fact, it was actually a craftable ring released post-chaos in OG MS. If you searched for the item in-game with owl, you will see that it doesn't exist.

    Krexel itself didn't drop Almighty Ring in OG MS, it's just that another server made it so that it became a krexel drop.

    Instead make Krexel drop chaos scrolls at a very low chance

    What does the balance team think about buffing krex to provide more incentive to fight it (exp, or drops buff)?

    Currently, it's a dead boss that is neither rewarding in exp or drops besides monster cards.

    These are the current drops of Krexel. I think this could be improved since it drops nothing worthwhile. Could we add one or two rare-ish drops here (e.g. sky skis, scrolls, a unique krexel equip??) to encourage more Krexel runs?

    If you don't want to add any custom gears, another change that can make krexel more worthwhile is to SIGNIFICANTLY increase the amount of equips it drops each time you kill it. For example, if it dropped 10 weapons per kill, it could become a good way to get exp / make some mesos from NPCing equips. In addition, I am sure that our marksmans (RegalStarRegalStar , AlyoshaAlyosha ) will appreciate the extra xbows hitting the market.

    Reviving dead thread...
    I do not think it is custom if the Almighty Ring was made to drop from Krexel. It was in the original game, even if it was post-BB.

    If it was post bb how could it be right to add it to a pre bb server

    Ravana is similar to krexel in that they’re easy bosses. However, krexel takes about 8-10times longer and but ravana has better drops...?

    Edit: I meant the average value of each run when I said better drops.

    I've run krexel a handful of times and usually the drops look like this. Zero equips are quite normal, 1 equip if you're lucky, 2 equips if you're an RNG god. I've ran ravana many more times, and it usually pays out better with 2-3 equip drops, with a frequent OA DEX 60 drop. OA DEX 60 is pretty stable at 500k, so it can be thought of as another equip drop.

    I'd argue that ravana is much better than krexel if you consider that krex runs require both
    1. A party (must share the splits)
    2. 20-30 mins to kill (duoing with Amy took 35 mins on 1 stew + bear)

    On the other hand, Ravana can be soloed within 5-10 minutes (100% splits), and you can gather prequest ETCs within 15-30 minutes for two runs. Given that you keep 100% of the drops, and 2-3 equips drop per run, Ravana is much better for mesos.

    I used to actively try to recruit for Krex duos, trios, or quatros, but I quickly realized that the hassle isn't worth the exp. In a duo format, I gained 25m exp in 35 minutes with non leech HS, an EPH of 42m. This isn't terrible for a duo, especially if you're ranged, but both Amy and I stewed to speed up the run, putting the cost at 2m. In addition, I need to use pots on my HS mule, bringing the cost a tiny bit higher. The true EPH is likely lower than 40m eph, with no return on loot.

    I think Krexel could use some more tweaking, because it just isn't really worth it neither in EXP or drops, and that's with a non leech HS mule sucking up pots every hit. I'm a big fan of Akash's idea of significantly increase the equip drop rate to be comparable to Zakum.
