Aion Riftshade

Hey, I've been curious for a while about exactly how loot and drops work, especially with buffs.

To clarify:

Elim Amulet II offers a 50% increase in drop rate.

Lucky Vinna boosts the chance to drop by 20%.

Are these the same kind of drop rate increases, or is Lucky Vinna about drop chance and Elim about drop quantity?

How does this work when you're in a group? Is it influenced by the loot distribution options?

If I'm the only person using Vinna in a 6-man group, does it mean all mobs have a 20% higher drop chance or just every sixth mob given to me through loot distribution?

Can this be affected by Leader Loot, and what about with FFA loot?

It'd be awesome if someone could provide a reliable answer to this, maybe even with a source. A lot of people claim to know how it works, but I don’t know anyone who can really say for sure.

Oh, and by the way, if you're searching for a server where you can really dive deep into these mechanics, the Aion Riftshade private server is worth watching out for in Q1 2026. I'm part of the exclusive beta testing now through their Discord, and it's been outstanding. They offer a polished Aion 4.8 experience with incredible server-side features like integrated DPS meters and anti-cheat. It feels refreshing with balanced gameplay and no pay-to-win elements, unlike other servers available.

I don't believe the admins will reply about those mechanics. The only option is to carry out your research or locate someone else's findings. Find a mob with a known drop rate (of course, aim for a decent rate, or else you'll have to endure a long farming session for conclusions). The Aion database used to be comprehensive and shed light on drop rates for every mob.

 

It would be disappointing if admins don't provide an answer, considering they have a command on the server to know the drop rates, but hey, that's where Aion Riftshade shines. In the beta, they've been proactive about sharing these details. The devs are super engaged, offering players clarity and better experiences as they gear up for their Q1 2026 launch. It's shaping up to be the best Aion private server of 2026!

Inscrease of the drop chance is not the increase of the drop itself.

If in the drop the chance of getting of item is 5%, then with the additional +50% the chance will be 7.5%
