Hello, I was wondering if there are certain monsters that have a higher rate for dropping SOS or SOM items or even higher level weapons/ armor. or do all monsters, withing a given range, have a chance to drop any item within that level range?

Most drops are completely random, but it does seem that some mobs drop more than others. For example I got really really crappy drops when doing the kill 1000 ghost flower quests. I have also heard that Tigers have a really high SoS drop rate, but that may just be coincidance.

drops are COMPLETLY random. that includes lvl mobs just tend to drop items around their lvl. but truat me. i knew a guy who got a lvl 60 unrepairable blade from a freiken earth toaist!. not to mention the lvl 29 SoS chest dom got from a bandit

Level 60 unrepairable blade? I find that hard to believe, considering only Uniques drop unrepairable crap.

i played for like 2 months and i never got a sos drop
alsodifferent level of monsters drop level items near the mob level so beware of what you want

it goes like this
by a place i've read about item drops, each and every monster drop equips according to his/her level.
meaning, if you kill a tiger which is level 18, you will get level 18 equips(INCLOODING Seal of star)
For Seal of Sun and seal of Moon, the level gap is 7+, meaning, if you want to get a SoS/SoM level 16 weapon, you'll need to kill monsters in the level range on 22~25
have fun ^_^

first question
Is it not true that the sos will usually be several levels higher than the monster that drop it?
and also
I'm wondering if anyone has ever gotten anything from the yetis ??

no drops arnt that random lol if they are then the pattern for drops for me @ ghost/devil bugs is one huge coincidence. I get drops like crazy there. Everytime I go to town sell and come back my inventory fills back up. So drops imo are not as random as people would think. Especially in a beta game, the algorithums to calculate item drop+ local isnt that sofisticated so there has to be areas where the drops are concentrated due to that fact.
I kno places that drop high + and so items so w/e think its random all you want. I will be making the money no the people who believe in randomness. (FYI: Nothing in a game is truley random, it is coded to happen @ a time/interval @ a place from a monster.)

I got a sos chest armor (3rd degree) from Bandits at the strong hold and few hours later, I got a 3rd degree sos sword. I think it's the more you grind on the same mob, more chance you have of getting a SOx drop

I havent got any SOS yet >_>

I killed 15K+ ugigs not one sox. So no.
Depends on your luck. I know someone that is lucky to get an acc exilir, but every stone seems to work for him. Is it random, yes to SOME degree.
