I think Disney made it easier to get Famed Weapons and the El Patron Sword initially in order to get them out there. The drops are totally random and they probably expected them to be spread out more. They did not take into account the trully obsessed gamers that camped out at the keyboard. On this forum I read a post that said a person spent 12 hours one day at Darkhart. The chance of getting a cool weapon will keep me looting, but I will mix it up with helping guildmates, potion making, acting silly and chatting.
I look forward to fishing
and customizing my ship. If a drop happens, it happens.... though I am envious of some people's clothing drops.
