Loot Bonus On Mobs

I just remembered that @Pepinho said loot bonus on mobs changes the rarity of items dropped, not quantity of items. What % of LB would it take to increase the tier of an item from basic (white) to unique (yellow), or unique to rare (magenta), rare to legendary (blue), legendary to mythic (purple)? This is directed to anyone with information about it since I have literally only seen @Pepinho 's one quote here: https://forums.wynncraft.com/threads/how-does-loot-bonuses-work.211913/#post-2566211

 

I thought it increased the amount of stuff mobs drop, which in turn makes it more likely for you to find a mythic because you're getting more items anyway. If what you said is right, I have no idea, although I do know (at least I'm pretty sure) that it both increases the rarity and quantity of items in chests.

 

It's quantity not quality

 

Nah, jp said that it isn't

 

So in chests is it quantity
In mobs is it quality?

 

i thot that it was quantity and not quality for mobs

 

Yep

 

So does 100% loot bonus mean that the tier of the item will be 100% greater (+1 tier of rarity)? @jpresent

 

how much loot bonus do i need to get a legendary to a mythic xd

 

I'm 99.9999% sure it doesn't work like that. It probably just increases the drop rate for mythics, not just raising it a tier

 

You need a total of 0 loot bonus to get a Mythic from mob. The only thing you need is a shit tonna luck. :D

 

Exactly why I'm asking the question. We don't know yet what the stat actually does. If it gives you a % boost to drop chances, % boost to tier of item, or % boost to nothing, we don't know. Quality of item means nothing if we don't know what the aspect being modified is. I can tell anyone that loot bonus for chests is completely functional and useful because I see it whenever I open a chest and find it full of items, then remove the armor and check other chests of equal tier for worse results. But I cannot prove that loot bonus is actually working on mobs if I don't see any change in amount of items or rarity when changing from a loot bonus build to a regular combat ready build. I got more legends with my combat ready life steal build than my loot bonus mob grinding set. I want to know, otherwise this will be more fodder for players to remain confused and annoyed with wynncraft about. I am annoyed with it myself. Why can't this aspect of loot bonus be just as thoroughly explained as the loot chest's diminishing returns? IDK, hence the question.

 

I think that loot bonus on mobs work like this:

Items have x% chance to drop and having loot bonus will increase that chance to to drop. For example, if a rare item has a 10% drop chance and you have 100% loot bonus it will increase the drop chance to 20%. I'm not sure if this is true neither do I know the equation they use to calculate the drop chance.

 

I think too

 

I think too

 

Bumps till the question gets a response

Make loot bonus great again. Give us the info!
