That's a Sniperwild.
By far the most obnoxious enemy in the game.
Least you only need 5 of what they drop, and it's guaranteed as long as you don't get spotted.

>>380795184
i still want to put my dick into that thing

>>380795184
>>380794581
Just STOP on them broski.
Stealth Soldier is much more obnoxious though you can just stop on them too

>>380795389
Stop works like shit on them.
It's easier to either get them when they jump on the ledges and single them out, or Mushu abuse.
Stealth Soldier doesn't even come close, but the second worst next to Sniperwild is Grand Ghost.

How can drop rates be improved?

What if it was every time you killed one, you got a higher percent chance to get it, starting from 50% for commons, 25% for uncom, 15% for rare, 5 for ultra, and 1 for legendary? Each kill gives +1% extra chance. But for ultr and legendary it was only .5%, so it keeps them rare enough.

Common-legendary would be tied to specific enemies as well? Or maybe it was that after 100 kills on the same enemy, no matter what it was or how tough it is, if you hadnt gotten the drop before, youll get it on the 100th kill.

>>380795624
>Grand Ghost
>worst in any way
Out of all of the extra Heartless, it is the absolute easiest to get stones from. You just use Elixirs/Hi Potions on it to get what you need.
At worst you'd have trouble stocking up on Elixirs to farm it.

>>380795994
Drop rates can never be improved because their rate to drop is reliant on how bad you want said item.

>>380795624
The fuck you talking about?
Grand Ghost and Sniperwild both have states where they have nearly 100% or higher drop rates for their stones

Use Strike Raid. That hint alone makes it all the easier.

>>380796503
use dumbo and it's pretty much guaranteed

Any fucking 1% drop rate in any MH game. Shit's fucking ridiculous. I'll be drowing in 1% drops for shit I'll never need, but the minute I actually need something I'll be grinding forever for it.

>>380795184
if you stand by the fountain you can actually snipe them with firaga really easily for about two waves of 5 spawns before their search range gets too big.

>>380796602
>>380796618
Thanks, I'll try these out the next time I go to them

>>380795994
I really don't think drop rates can be improved without making games piss easy. However, making one item have a drop rate of like 10%, and only on enemies that have like a 40% spawn rate is egregious, though, and there are MANY rpgs that do just this.

>>380797232
2% Drop rate.

Bright Crystals are the worst offender at 1% though.

>>380797353
Just put on Jackpots

>>380794581
None in KH are that bad because they are all basically mini games where if you get a high enough score you are pretty much guaranteed their drop.

>>380797232
To give him some credit, Wizards can be especially annoying if you;

don't have stop,

have a low mp pool,

don't have combo plus,

or meet all three of these circumstances.

>>380794581
as much as I hate the non-garunteed drop bonus heartless, I really disliked the chimera, its game was dumb and inconsistent and goofy always fucked it up by getting hit

>>380797456
Even then it takes awhile man. I think he's 100 percent right that they are the worst because all the items from the special enemies can be gotten guaranteed if you are good enough at beating them.

Wizards can be hurt by Aerora/Ga.

>>380797531
Eh, depends on when you go farming them. They're a pain in the ass when you first meet them in HB, but later on when you get Divine Rose they're a cinch.

>>380797562
I struggled with it for while then all of a sudden it just clicked for me. I can't even explain why.

Shield's the most consistent/viable option, while Staff is mainly useful for early game.
Sword is a meme.

>>380795994
Drop rates can be completely fixed the same way cash shops, quick time events, and grinding can be fixed: Remove it entirely.

>>380794581
All those new heartless were obnoxious little shits.

>>380798253
>grinding
That's not something you remove because it's not something you put in on purpose. You're a moron if you think that's why it's a thing in some games.

>>380798572

I just wish 2 had better arenas, holy shit they sucked ass. Removing Exp was especially CANCER.

>>380798063
Having to wait til level 21 for scan is maddening.

>>380795184
The easiest (but most time-consuming) trick I found was to stand on the roofs nearby and zap it whenever it got in range.

>>380798692
I know. I finished the journal for 2 like a week ago and that was the last thing I did, even after Lingering Will and Data fights. Thank god for blessed Stitch.

>>380796602
>Strike Raid
I found Sonic Blade to be more reliable.

Something else that ticks me off is the drop rate for the KH2 manga scans. I've been grinding for this shit for months now, and nothing

>>380798961
Does Sonic Blade also make you invulnerable?

I'm not sure if they changed it, but in Maple Story, there's a quest attached to the main raid quest line in the Temple of Time (relatively high level area). You have to collect a monster drop from these three mini-boss mobs that spawn every ~30 minutes. It doesn't always drop, but the drop rate isn't too bad.

The infuriating part is there's like 30-50 people trying to do this quest at the same time, and there's only 20 channels, and only the person who gets credit for the kill gets the drop. The quest is a huge bottleneck for people trying to unlock the pink drop boss

>>380798428
If you put in resource scarcity and also a way to continually and indefinitely collect said resources, you are enabling grinding. If you add in a level-up system and a way to continually and indefinitely collect experience points, you are enabling grinding.

>>380795994
TWEWY had a great system. You could choose to lower your level in exchange for boosting your drop rate. You could also eat food that would permanently raise the drop rate.

>>380799323
>Removed invulnerability
Not exactly the same but you have so many parry frames during them it's near impossible to get hit out of it, especially since every hit can stagger as hard as a finisher
