Remove the Fixed Feather Drop Rate in Darkness Falls

I speak for many players in saying that the best part of XPing on Phoenix is doing so in a full group. It's inclusive and efficient.

Right now Darkness Falls has a fixed feather drop rate, meaning you earn more feathers the smaller your group size is. This will likely lead to players camping spots in Darkness Falls on farming toons and excluding others. I think that is detrimental. This is a 20 year old game and a lot of players here don't want to struggle to find farming spots in Darkness Falls. The grind is tedious as it is.

Players should be able to farm in full groups for roughly the same feather drop rates, just like how they can while xping there. It would also allow full groups to move deeper into Darkness Falls and fight harder mobs more frequently.

Will not happen. It was a little buff/love to smaller grps/solos and it is intentional. It was planned and you have to keep in mind the more players you are, the faster you kill one mob. So you may get less feathers in bigger grps per mob, but you get the same (prolly even more) amount of feathers over time.

Besides that, if we remove this change, the complaining will be endless and we are again the bad boys, which hate solos/smallmen, the worlds end will be very near, uthred does hate us all and Devs are playing <insert random realm here> anyways!!!!1. something like that, Sorry, i just quoted from random experiences I made so far when working on this lovely project.

Seriously, we had a vision, you may also call it an idea, when we put this in (tbh we have this very often, when we change/put in things) and we think it is great like it is now. So nothing to change there.

Last but not least, who is keeping you from going deeper into DF? There are no bouncers which are saying: "you are not allowed to go deeper!". Just do it, I know you can.

Speaking of this. Went and killed Gatekeeper, for around 1k feathers each as a duo. Went even further and killed the High lords dukes/etc and got... 10 ? And they took longer to kill : c

Is this intended?

Yes, thats intended. Normally the gatekeeper should take longer, as he has some special abilities. But thx for the feedback. I will have a look at the gatekeeper and check his abilities.
