Hi.
I want to ask about something weird that happened with me while in worm party 2x today.
2 dragon meat poped in gold pyxie then i transfered them to pool.
Then i passed any drop before it, like meat was the 7th and 8th on list and i passed everything till the 6th and was waiting fot it to drop.
Then the meat dropped before the 4th and 5th loot, and both to the same jp guy.
Is that a kind of cheating or the pool order dont really mean the order pf dropping?
Thanks in advance.

Tried to do my home work, looked through graphics guides and google, can't figure it out. How can I adjust my windower settings to have a nice clean resolution while having large easy to read chat? Thanks in advance! People say edit the "launcher.ini" file, how can I locate that, i've done a search on my computer and came up with nothing.

using windower 4, open it up, and select the profile you want to use. hit the edit button on the bottom, select the Game tab, and increase the UI scale.

It's random, but I've heard it has a higher chance of dropping to people who have been in the party longest.

Hello guys i want to ask about something ^^
after you get 300 items for REM weapons, npc says you need to wait 1 day, what he does mean? 1 day game or 1 day RL game?

In Dynamis, relics will stay in the pool longer while currency flows through. It's possible that the meat will do this, while ores flow through. If that's the case then the meat hit the 5:00 (or whatever) mark and finally dropped.
Also, there's no telling where those meats were intended to drop, perhaps much of the alliance, thank you silver ore, had full inventories. Maybe there was 18 people, and only 4 people with inventory space.

Isn't there generally a message when a party member has a full inventory and it was intended to sort to them?

Might want to test that, I've seen it far too often in worm parties where quartermaster doesn't happen.

I have, sat in crawlers nest last night getting a friend coffer key. like 500 beetle shells later and everyone 80/80 for 2 hours. No messages appeared for anyone just "the ***has been lost" when it hit the floor each time
Try it if one person has plenty of space and the others are 80/80. When the item tries to sort to the person who is full, they should get the message "you were unable to obtain X" and it should sort to the person with space. That's my experience, but I can't test it atm.

is the game actually worth the subscription fee anymore? Seems like something you'd have to figure out for yourself. For those that do play the answer is probably some sort of yes. It's 12.95 a month, if you can think of something more fun to do with that same amount of money over a months time, then it probably isn't worth bothering with.
Isn't there some sort of free trial thing for people that have ever had an account now? May as well try that.
Answer would change a lot depending on if you still have friends that play as well. I wouldn't come back at all if I had none around. Hi.

Thanks in advance. Last Stand. Can't imagine Wildfire would do any real damage to it and Rng probably doesn't have any kind of acc issue's against bee at this point.

Is there a thread or a post somewhere that tells returning players how to start into adulin content? I got the expansion about a month after release (when they put the price at around $10?) went to adulin, couldn't figure out my head from my *** and promptly quit. Help?

There are NPCs to explain pretty much everything. :o The main page of bgwiki has a bunch of handy links for Seekers content too.

Reives/quests for Bayld, buy bayld gear to get yourself somewhat up to standards so you don't get raped by the content. Then start gearing up further with Skirmishes(Yorcia being the most important imho) and Wildskeeper Reives. From there you can start looking more at Delve content for the last bit of high end stuff to shoot for.
Other than that you can throw in quests/missions/Coalition stuff in between or after getting geared. For more in depth info on the individual content, I'd use BG wiki like Carrelo said.
TLDR: Reives/Bayld Gear -> Skirmish/Wildskeeper Reives -> Delve
With random quests/missions thrown in as you please.

What is best WoE zones to solo as BLU for Coins of Glory and the other 2 items?
Thank you. If you're talking true solo as in nobody else in the aea with you then I'd say Amphitheater (flux 9) would be the easiest. Turtles isn't too bad but the boss turtles can sometimes be troublesome with tensudo stomp.

Flux 9 will cover coins and die, it's possible to get residue from there too but it's very uncommon. More common in flux 12-15. I haven't had the chance to try those on my own as yet because theres always people there. If you have good gear sets you might be able to solo the Behemoth (Flux 14), Iron giants I think will depend on if you can keep them stunned. (Its not nice getting all your gear blown off)
For Residue your best options are fluxes 12-15, for die it's 9-11. Coins can drop in any.
