Not a bad call, will keep that in mind. I was curious if there were any definitive answers for proc disappearing or not if THF knife is swapped out.


The numbers required to be definitive on TH is astronomically high. Based off my personal experience, TH is overwritten with each action by a THF or /THF.



Can confirm this to be true. Each time a THF attacks you are applying treasure hunter. I also recommend making your first attack a Sneak attack on the mob from behind as this has also been proven to improve drop rate and apply the highest TH on the mob. From personal experience I also find that using a SA on mob + finish off with a WS results in the best drop overall. (results may vary per person)

So you're saying it's random and nothing you do affects it?

I'm saying overall I've gotten more drops doing it the method I stated. Test it out for yourself and see what you get. My results are based on anecdotal and how I know TH works.

Yeah, I do really feel like the current TH formula (whatever it is) feels pretty dang close to era retail. Most of my observed droprates line up pretty well with what's listed in current DSP/Topaz as well as what's listed at http://ffxidb.com

For reference, I really like the DB browser that the folks behind HomepointXI put together for checking out drop rates/etc. It's not 100% accurate to Nasomi, of course, but it's a pretty great baseline since the oldschool DSP site doesn't work anymore: http://www.homepointxi.com/db/items



I've found this site to be pretty accurate as well. It has data to show the drop rate with each treasure hunter.
