| Author | MG Elements Drop rate |
|---|
Are the possibilities of getting a particular type of element diffent from others?
Like is the P(Moonstone)<<P(viper venom) ? |
| here P(x) is probability of x |
| As far as I know, all have the same % chance. |
The chance of an element drop is 20% of successful quests. The types of element available increase with MG level.
See https://www.lordswm.com/help.php?section=39#MG for which elements are available at each level
You are MG level 2 so you can't get a Moonstone yet.

| I know I can't get moonstone, but if all have same probabilities then, why do their prices differ so much? |
| PRobably because ones are needed or worth more while enchanting. |
in that case we can think of the high cost of moonstone but what about abrasive?
and why is viper venom so cheap although it too is used in enchanting |
the base of drop rate is random in between elements.
but the prices differ because
it takes lot of effort to get that level and start getting moon stone.
and the thing is.
at the start of selling in market.
it has started on this average rate.
so nobody wants to reduce it now.
for example.
if u have ten moon stones.
and you can sell each at 10000
and people are ready to buy then y will you sell it at 2000.
also.,
if you want to buy viper venom
average rate is 250 in market
then there's no way you will buy it at 1000
unless and until
each player raises their rates to that height.
or vice versa in case of moon stones (all lords reducing their rates).
so sorry to say
it's highly doubtful that anyone would sell at low price |
and as you can see
getting fern flowers at level 5
but still it's cheap
that's because it has been started selling at that rate on average. |

Moonstones are used for the most valuable enchantments. They are also available at MG level 3 and above.
in that case we can think of the high cost of moonstone but what about abrasive?
Abrasive is available at MG level 1. That means there are going to be a lot more players getting them, as up until 600 MG points you cannot get moonstones.
and as you can see
getting fern flowers at level 5
but still it's cheap
that's because it has been started selling at that rate on average.
Actually, it started selling incredibly high. The reason it is so low now is because it has one use - To get the 5th enchantment. Fewer people get the 5th enchantment - so fewer people have a need for fern flowers. Their prices have plummeted. |
for Corey:
correction
moonstone at 300mg points.
and as for prices.
my point was
it's dependant on all lords as how they want to sell |
| what abt meteorite shard vs abrasive then? shard is if course muvh easier to get and much less important. |
that is what I am trying to say.
the way it has been going on it will go on.
the only way it can change is
if there's a cap on selling price of elements.
or if all the lords sell it at low price .
only then there's a chance for price to reduce. |
for randomr1:
What do you mean much less important? Meteorite shard is the main element in 3 enchants, and the secondary element in a fourth enchant.
https://www.lordswm.com/help.php?section=39
Abrasive is only the secondary element in 2 enchants.
correction
moonstone at 300mg points.
Ah yes, you are right :) |

It depends more on the principles of demand and supply rather than players' collective will. |
Because everyone gets trash elements before they get Moonstones.
Why so many trash elements ? Because newbies come and go every day, they join the game, play for a month or so, reach level 5, get some MG quests and leave. We have many such guys, it's only normal, happens on all games. So trash items are more common. |
for Lord Hallion91:
Agreed in that point too.
But MG is fun
It's awesome
it's coming from a player who plays only HG and MG battles more often :P
i have not done even a single PVP battle till now
except ( one vs one quick tournament ) |
i think theres a server bug, im getting a bit too many elements these days XD
i get so many every day :O |
It depends more on the principles of demand and supply rather than players' collective will.
Totally. Moonstones were half that price less than a year ago. Once prices start moving up/down, people sell quickly or start being greedy, it's pretty direct (and fun).
Clans have been stable for a while now, and no new full sets have been introduced => much less enchanting than during the big times. |
for randomr1:
same here
i reached 600 points in MG and then
from 600-630!
in 30 MG completed quests
i got 12 elements.
it was at 121 when i reach 600MG points, so thats about 20%.
But now its approx 40%
and I am loving it :D.
If this is a bug then please i beg you admins, don't fix it :P |
