Just wondering if all the force pop kings have really low drop rates on their items overall. Mainly the concern I've seen is abjurations. Every single kill has always resulted in only 1 abjuration dropping. Never seen 2 in the 20+ times I've popped all kings together.

Fafnir/Nidhogg/KB all have been popped at least 20+ times and always 1 adjuration. Also getting no luck on ridills. Anyone have any pictures or experience to disprove this?

Also, can more than 1 pop item from KSNM99 drop? Only ever seen 1 every time as well. Thought SE said 2 can drop but it's never been confirmed. Just asking. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

So because you can force pop them now, you expect ridill, which had an abyssmal drop rate even when Fafnir was timed spawned, to just magically rain down? lol. Shitty luck is shitty luck.

I don't have a picture, but
I know n legs and a body have both dropped at once off nidhogg when we did a round of him recently.

But i know the drop rate is also terrible, we killed 6 nidhoggs, got 0 ridill and like only 4 abjurations worth a damn.

I'd constitute that as a bad luck, with a thf 2 abjurations is near enough a standard drop from Fafnir, behemoth doesnt have an abjurations and adamantoise I havn't any knowledge on.
And about 2 pop items dropping from the KSNMs is the first I've heard of it.

Out of around 100 Fafnirs from back during HNM camping days, only seen 1 ridill drop (off the first one I killed lol). Have seen other shells get them back to back. Thats just how it goes sometimes =/

There's absolutely no chance that they were making a reference to how many Fafnirs they must have killed to produce six Nidhogg pops. None at all.

The other person may have been but the first reply was to the OP who mentioned that they were more interested in the lack of abjurations and just added in they had no ridills drop either.

My ls did bout 10 NQ behemoth and 10 NQ turtle recently after spamming KS99. Not a dam thing dropped from all 20~ pops. if you're looking for abj or BB items, there are probably better ways.

Another side note, 10 thf TA, SA over and over is a horrible way to kill anything. FU SE for making TH.
